Internationalization in EJ2 TypeScript Maps component

10 Feb 20264 minutes to read

Internationalization enables the Maps component to display content in different cultures and locales, making it accessible to users worldwide. The Maps component supports internationalization for the following elements:

• Data label
• Tooltip

For more information about number and date formatters, refer to the internationalization section.

Globalization

Globalization is the process of designing and developing a control that works in different cultures/locales. Internationalization library is used to globalize number, date, time values in Maps component using format property in the Maps.

Numeric format

The numeric formats such as currency, percentage and so on can be displayed in the tooltip and data labels of the Maps using the format property in the Maps. In the below example, the tooltip is globalized to German culture. When setting the useGroupingSeparator property as true, the numeric text in the Maps separates with the comma separator.

import { Maps, MapsTooltip } from '@syncfusion/ej2-maps';
import { world_map } from './world-map.ts';
import { setCulture } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
setCulture('de');
Maps.Inject(MapsTooltip);
let maps: Maps = new Maps({
    format: 'c',
    useGroupingSeparator: true,
    layers: [
        {
            shapeData: world_map,
            dataSource: [
                { "Country": "China", "Membership": "Permanent", population: '38332521' },
                { "Country": "France", "Membership": "Permanent", population: '19651127' },
                { "Country": "Russia", "Membership": "Permanent", population: '3090416' },
                { "Country": "Kazakhstan", "Membership": "Non-Permanent", population: '1232521' },
                { "Country": "Poland", "Membership": "Non-Permanent", population: '90332521' },
                { "Country": "Sweden", "Membership": "Non-Permanent", population: '383521' }
            ],
            shapePropertyPath: 'name',
            shapeDataPath: 'Country',
            shapeSettings: {
                colorValuePath: 'Membership',
                colorMapping: [
                {
                    value: 'Permanent', color: '#D84444'
                },
                {
                    value: 'Non-Permanent', color: '#316DB5'
                }]
            },
            tooltipSettings: {
                visible: true,
                valuePath: 'population'
            }
        }
    ]
});
maps.appendTo('#element');
