Usage
Youtube: iOS - Support multiple languages (Localization).
First of all, remember to add the Localizable.strings
to your project, after adding the Localizable.strings
file, select it then go to file inspector and below localization press localize, after that go to PROJECT > Localisation
then add the languages you want to support (Arabic for example), dialog will appear to ask you which resource file you want to localize, select just the Localizable.strings
file.
Now, go to your storyboard and add UILable
and add text to it, for example "Hello !"
, then go to your Localizable.strings
file expand it, you will find Localizable strings file for English and Arabic, for English, add this line with the string you used in the UILabel
inside the storyboard
"Hello !" = "Hello !";
and for Arabic file :
"Hello !" = "مرحبا !";
After that in the `didFinishLaunchingWithOptions` method inside the `AppDelegate.swift` file, set your default language that your app will run first time
LanguageManager.shared.defaultLanguage = .en // you can use .deviceLanguage to keep the device default language.
If you want to change the language use the setLanguage(language:)
method by passing to it the new language
@IBAction func changeLanguage(_ sender: UIButton) {
let selectedLanguage: Languages = sender.tag == 1 ? .en : .ar
// change the language
LanguageManager.shared.setLanguage(language: selectedLanguage)
{ title -> UIViewController in
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
// the view controller that you want to show after changing the language
return storyboard.instantiateInitialViewController()!
} animation: { view in
// do custom animation
view.transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: 2, y: 2)
view.alpha = 0
}
}
If you have an image and you want to change the direction of the image depending on the language, you can use image direction property, the property can be one of the following values:
-fixed
: if the image must not change the direction depending on the language, you need to set the value as 0.
-leftToRight
: if the image must change the direction depending on the language
and the image is left to right image then you need to set the value as 1.
-rightToLeft
: if the image must change the direction depending on the language
and the image is right to left image then you need to set the value as 2.
Please check the example project to see how it works.
