canonicalQueries: ['foo']
})
setI18nParams({
en: { slug: data.slugs.en }, // slug: 'red-mug'
nl: { slug: data.slugs.nl } // slug: 'rode-mok'
})
const switchLocalePath = useSwitchLocalePath()
switchLocalePath('en') // /products/red-mug
switchLocalePath('nl') // /nl/products/rode-mok
</script>
<template>
<!-- pages/products/[slug].vue -->
</template>
declare function useSetI18nParams(options?: SeoAttributesOptions): (locale: Record<Locale, unknown>) => void
optionsType: SeoAttributesOptions | undefined
An SeoAttributesOptions object, default undefined. See the SEO guide for more details.
useRouteBaseNameThe useRouteBaseName composable returns a function that gets the route's base name.
Example:
<script setup>
const route = useRoute()
const getRouteBaseName = useRouteBaseName()
const baseRouteName = computed(() => {
return getRouteBaseName(route)
})
</script>
<template>
<p>route base name: {{ baseRouteName }}</p>
</template>
declare function useRouteBaseName(
options?: I18nCommonRoutingOptionsWithComposable
): (givenRoute?: Route | RouteLocationNormalizedLoaded) => string | undefined
useBrowserLocaleThe useBrowserLocale composable returns the browser locale.
If this composable function is called on client-side, it detects the locale from the value of navigator.languages.
Else on the server side, the locale is detected from the value of accept-language header.
declare function useBrowserLocale(): string | null
useCookieLocaleThe useCookieLocale composable returns the cookie locale.
If this composable function is called on client-side, it detects the locale from the value of document.cookie via useCookie. else on the server side, the locale is detected from the value of cookie header.
Note that if the value of detectBrowserLanguage.useCookie is false, an empty string is always returned.
declare function useCookieLocale(): Ref<string>
useTranslationThe useTranslation composable returns the translation function.
Example:
export default defineEventHandler(async event => {
const t = await useTranslation(event)
return {
hello: t('hello')
}
})
The locale is use by the translation function is the locale detected by the function defined in experimental.localeDetector option.
declare function useTranslation<Schema extends Record<string, any> = {}, Event extends H3Event = H3Event>(
event: Event
): Promise<TranslationFunction<Schema, DefineLocaleMessage>>
defineI18nConfigThe defineI18nConfig defines a composable function to vue-i18n configuration.
This function is used to pass the createI18n options on nuxt i18n module.
For more details about configuration, see the Vue I18n documentation.
You need return vue-i18n options object that will be resolved by Promise.
export function defineI18nConfig<Config extends I18nOptions>(
loader: () => Config | Promise<Config>
): () => Config | Promise<Config>
for example, define simple vue-i18n options object:
export default defineI18nConfig(() => ({
legacy: false,
locale: 'en',
messages: {
en: {
welcome: 'Welcome'
},
fr: {
welcome: 'Bienvenue'
}
}
}))
loaderA function that is the vue-i18n options loading.
defineI18nLocaleThe defineI18nLocale defines a composable function to dynamically load locale messages.
This function is used to dynamically load a locale with lazy-load translations.
You can use at JavaScript and TypeScript extension formats.
You need return locale messages object that will be resolved by Promise.
declare function defineI18nLocale<Messages = LocaleMessages<DefineLocaleMessage>, Locales = Locale>(
loader: (locale: Locales) => Messages | Promise<Messages>
): (locale: Locales) => Messages | Promise<Messages>
for example, locale loading with fetch:
export default defineI18nLocale(locale => {
return $fetch(`https://your-company-product/api/${locale}`)
})
loaderA function that is the dynamic locale messages loading, that has the following parameters:
localeLocalesetLocale.<NuxtLink>. for example, the route path resolved by useSwitchLocalePath or $switchLocalePath.defineI18nLocaleDetectorThe defineI18nLocaleDetector defines a composable function to detect the locale on the server-side.
The locale detector function is used to detect the locale on server-side. It's called per request on the server.
You need return locale string.
experimental.localeDetector option.type LocaleConfig = {
defaultLocale: Locale
fallbackLocale: FallbackLocale
}
declare function defineI18nLocaleDetector(
detector: (event: H3Event, config: LocaleConfig) => string
): (event: H3Event, config: LocaleConfig) => string
An example of a locale detector:
// Detect based on query, cookie, header
export default defineI18nLocaleDetector((event, config) => {
const query = tryQueryLocale(event, { lang: '' })
if (query) {
return query.toString()
}
const cookie = tryCookieLocale(event, { lang: '', name: 'i18n_locale' })
if (cookie) {
return cookie.toString()
}
const header = tryHeaderLocale(event, { lang: '' })
if (header) {
return header.toString()
}
return config.defaultLocale
})
In the locale detector function, you can use @intlify/h3 utilities, these are auto imported.
detectorA function that is the locale detector, that has the following parameters:
eventH3Eventconfig{ defaultLocale: Locale; fallbackLocale: FallbackLocale; }defaultLocale: This value is set to the defaultLocale option of Nuxt i18n. If unset, it is set to the locale option loaded from the Vue I18n configuration (i18n.config file set on the vueI18n option). If neither of these are set, the default value of 'en-US' is used.fallbackLocale: This value is set to the fallbackLocale option loaded from the Vue I18n configuration (i18n.config file set on the vueI18n option). If no fallback locale has been configured this will default to false.
