Localization in Angular Combo box component

27 Apr 20244 minutes to read

The Localization library allows you to localize static text content of the
noRecordsTemplate and actionFailureTemplate  properties according to the culture currently assigned to the ComboBox.

Locale key en-US (default)
noRecordsTemplate No records found
actionFailureTemplate The request failed

Loading translations

To load translation object to your application, use load function of the L10n class.

In the following sample, French culture is set to the ComboBox and no data is loaded. Hence, the noRecordsTemplate property displays its text in French culture initially, and if the sample is run offline, the actionFailureTemplate property displays its text appropriately.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { FormsModule, ReactiveFormsModule } from '@angular/forms'
import { ComboBoxModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-dropdowns'
import { ButtonModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-buttons'



import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DataManager, ODataV4Adaptor, Query } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
import { L10n } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';

@Component({
imports: [
        FormsModule, ReactiveFormsModule, ComboBoxModule,ButtonModule
    ],


standalone: true,
    selector: 'app-root',
    // specifies the template string for the ComboBox component
    template: `<ejs-combobox id='comboelement' #samples [dataSource]='data' [query]='query' [fields]='fields' [placeholder]='text' [locale]='locale'></ejs-combobox>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    constructor() {
    }
    //set the placeholder text in french to ComboBox input
    public text: string = "Sélectionnez un élément";
    // bind remotedata to showcase actionFailureTemplate in offline
    public data: DataManager = new DataManager({
        url: 'https://services.odata.org/V4/Northwind/Northwind.svc/Customers',
        adaptor: new ODataV4Adaptor,
        crossDomain: true
    });
    // map appropriate column
    public fields: Object = { text: 'ContactName', value: 'CustomerID' };
    // take 0 item to showcase noRecordsTemplate property
    public query: Query = new Query().select(['ContactName', 'CustomerID']).take(0);
    //set culture to ComboBox component
    public locale: string = 'fr-BE';
    ngOnInit(): void {
        L10n.load({
            'fr-BE': {
            'dropdowns': {
                    'noRecordsTemplate': "Aucun enregistrement trouvé",
                    'actionFailureTemplate': "Modèle d'échec d'action"
                }
            }
        });
    }
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
