To see Next with Gatsby in action, check this example app.
npm i @tolgee/react
Get started!
1. Create project in Tolgee platform
Go to Tolgee Cloud app or access your self-hosted instance and create a project. Then obtain your API key.
2. Setup Tolgee integration
Install the npm packages.
npm i @tolgee/react gatsby-plugin-react-intl
Prepare your gatsby-config.js.
module.exports = {
plugins: [
{
resolve: `gatsby-plugin-react-intl`,
options: {
path: `${__dirname}/src/i18n`,
languages: [`en`, `cs`],
defaultLanguage: `en`,
redirect: true,
},
},
],
};
Then wrap your code with TolgeeProvider
import { TolgeeProvider, DevTools, Tolgee, FormatSimple } from '@tolgee/react';
import { useIntl } from 'gatsby-plugin-react-intl';
const tolgee = Tolgee().use(DevTools()).use(FormatSimple()).init({
defaultLanguage: 'en',
apiKey: process.env.GATSBY_TOLGEE_API_KEY,
apiUrl: process.env.GATSBY_TOLGEE_API_URL,
});
export const AppWrapper: React.FC = ({ children }) => {
const { locale, messages } = useIntl();
const staticData = useMemo(() => {
return { [locale]: messages }
}, [locale, messages])
const ssrTolgee = useTolgeeSSR(tolgee, locale, staticData);
return (
<TolgeeProvider tolgee={ssrTolgee} fallback="Loading...">
{children}
</TolgeeProvider>
);
};
3. Use T component to translate your texts
import { T } from "@tolgee/react";
export const Component = () => {
return (
<h1>

</h1>
)
}
