detect-locale

detect-locale

• This application is ment to provide you the browser's language with minimal code with zero dependencies.Some packages uses accept-language header to detect language that cost XHR to server but here we use navigator to get the language.The main thing is that it supports all possible browsers.

How to Install ?

• npm install detect-locale
• yarn add detect-locale

How to use ?

• ES6 way :

  import { getBrowserLocale,getShortBrowserLocale,getUserLanguages } from "detect-locale";
  console.log(` 5 character Browser Locale : String :$ {getBrowserLocale()}`);
  console.log(`2 Character Browser Locale : String 2 character: <b>{getShortBrowserLocale()}`);
  console.log(`User languages prefference : Array : <b>{getUserLanguages()}`);
  

• Old way

  const locale = require("detect-locale");
  console.log(` 5 character Browser Locale : String :${locale.getBrowserLocale()}`);
  console.log(`2 Character Browser Locale : String 2 character: ${locale.getShortBrowserLocale()}`);
  console.log(`User languages prefference : Array : ${locale.getUserLanguages()}`);
