Localization in Angular Tab component

22 Sep 20256 minutes to read

Localization library allows you to localize the default text content of the Tab component for different cultures using the locale property. In Tab, the close button’s tooltip text will be localized based on the specified culture. The close button appears on the tab header when the showCloseButton property is enabled.

Locale key	en-US (default)
closeButtonTitle	Close

Loading translations

To load translation objects in an application, use the load function of the L10n class.

In the following sample, the French culture is applied to the Tab component, which changes the close button’s tooltip text accordingly.

app.component.ts

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms'
import { TabModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations'



import { Component, ViewChild, OnInit, ElementRef } from '@angular/core';
import { TabComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations';
import { L10n } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
import { EmitType } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';

@Component({
imports: [
         FormsModule, TabModule
    ],


standalone: true,
    selector: 'app-container',
    template: `
     <ejs-tab id="element" locale="fr-BE" [showCloseButton]='true'>
            <e-tabitems>
                <e-tabitem [header]='headerText[0]' [content]="content0"></e-tabitem>
                <e-tabitem [header]='headerText[1]' [content]="content1"></e-tabitem>
                <e-tabitem [header]='headerText[2]' [content]="content2"></e-tabitem>
            </e-tabitems>
        </ejs-tab>
        `
})

export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
      ngOnInit() {
      // Load French culture for Tab close button tooltip text
        L10n.load({
            'fr-BE': {
            'tab': {
                    'closeButtonTitle': "Fermer"
                }
            }
        });
    }
     public headerText: Object = [{ 'text': 'Twitter' }, { 'text': 'Facebook' },{ 'text': 'WhatsApp' }];
