Localization in React Schedule component

14 Feb 202424 minutes to read

The Scheduler integrates different date-time formats and cultures, which allows it to function globally, thus meeting the diverse needs of different regions.

You can adapt the Scheduler to various languages by parsing and formatting the date or number (Internationalization), adding culture specific customization and translation to the text (Localization).

Globalization

The Internationalization library provides support for formatting and parsing the number, date, and time by using the official Unicode CLDR JSON data and also provides the loadCldr method to load the culture specific CLDR JSON data.

By default, Scheduler is set to follow the English culture (‘en-US’). If you want to go with different culture other than English, follow the below steps.

  • Install the CLDR-Data package by using the below command (it installs the CLDR JSON data). For more information about CLDR-Data, refer to this link.

     npm install cldr-data --save
    

    Once the package is installed, you can find the culture specific JSON data under the location /node_modules/cldr-data.

  • Now import the installed CLDR JSON data into the app.ts file. To import JSON data, you need to install the JSON plugin loader. Here, we have used the SystemJS JSON plugin loader.

     npm install systemjs-plugin-json --save-dev
    
  • Once installed, configure the system.config.js configuration settings as shown in the following code to map the systemjs-plugin-json loader.

     System.config({
       paths: {
           'syncfusion:': 'npm:@syncfusion/'
       } ,
       map: {
          app: 'app',
    
          //Syncfusion packages mapping
          "@syncfusion/ej2-base": "syncfusion:ej2-base/dist/ej2-base.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-data": "syncfusion:ej2-data/dist/ej2-data.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-schedule": "syncfusion:ej2-schedule/dist/ej2-schedule.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-calendars": "syncfusion:ej2-calendars/dist/ej2-calendars.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-buttons": "syncfusion:ej2-buttons/dist/ej2-buttons.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-inputs": "syncfusion:ej2-inputs/dist/ej2-inputs.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-lists": "syncfusion:ej2-lists/dist/ej2-lists.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-navigations": "syncfusion:ej2-navigations/dist/ej2-navigations.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-popups": "syncfusion:ej2-popups/dist/ej2-popups.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-dropdowns": "syncfusion:ej2-dropdowns/dist/ej2-dropdowns.umd.min.js",
          "@syncfusion/ej2-splitbuttons": "syncfusion:ej2-splitbuttons/dist/ej2-splitbuttons.umd.min.js",
          "cldr-data": 'npm:cldr-data',
          "plugin-json": "npm:systemjs-plugin-json/json.js"
       },
        meta: {
          '*.json': { loader: 'plugin-json' }
      } ,
       packages: {
          'app': { main: 'app', defaultExtension: 'js' },
          'cldr-data': { main: 'index.js', defaultExtension: 'js' }
       }
    });
    
    System.import('app');
  • Now import the required cultures from the installed location to app.ts file as given in the following code example.

      //import the loadCldr from ej2-base
      import { loadCldr} from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
    
     loadCldr(
      require('cldr-data/supplemental/numberingSystems.json'),
      require('cldr-data/main/fr-CH/ca-gregorian.json'),
      require('cldr-data/main/fr-CH/numbers.json'),
      require('cldr-data/main/fr-CH/timeZoneNames.json')
       );
  • Set the culture to Scheduler by using the locale property.

Localizing the static Scheduler text

Localization library allows to display all the static text, date content, and time mode of the Scheduler following the localized language. To achieve this, set the locale property of Scheduler, as well as define the translation text of static words of Scheduler through the load method.

For example, the following code example lets you to define the French translation words for all the static words used in Scheduler.

import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { ScheduleComponent, Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month, Inject, ViewsDirective, ViewDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';
import { Ajax, L10n, loadCldr } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
import * as numberingSystems from '../numberingSystems.json';
import * as gregorian from '../ca-gregorian.json';
import * as numbers from '../numbers.json';
import * as detimeZoneNames from '../timeZoneNames.json';
loadCldr(numberingSystems, gregorian, numbers, detimeZoneNames);
let localeTexts;
let ajax = new Ajax('./locale.json', 'GET', false);
ajax.onSuccess = (value) => {
    localeTexts = value;
};
ajax.send();
L10n.load(JSON.parse(localeTexts));
const App = () => {
    const eventSettings = { dataSource: scheduleData }
    return <ScheduleComponent height='550px' selectedDate={new Date(2018, 1, 15)} locale='fr-CH' eventSettings={eventSettings}>
    <ViewsDirective>
      <ViewDirective option='Day'/>
      <ViewDirective option='Week'/>
      <ViewDirective option='WorkWeek'/>
      <ViewDirective option='Month'/>
    </ViewsDirective>
    <Inject services={[Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month]}/>
  </ScheduleComponent>;
}
;
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('schedule'));
root.render(<App />);

import * as numberingSystems from '../numberingSystems.json';
import * as gregorian from '../ca-gregorian.json';

import * as detimeZoneNames from '../timeZoneNames.json';

loadCldr(numberingSystems, gregorian, numbers, detimeZoneNames);
let localeTexts: string;
let ajax: Ajax = new Ajax('./locale.json', 'GET', false);
ajax.onSuccess = (value: string) => {

};
ajax.send();
L10n.load(JSON.parse(localeTexts));

Setting date format

Scheduler can be used with all valid date formats and by default it follows the universal date format “MM/dd/yyyy”. If the dateFormat property is not specified particularly, then it will work based on the locale that is assigned to the Scheduler. As the default locale applied on Scheduler is “en-US”, this makes it to follow the “MM/dd/yyyy” pattern.

Setting the time format

Time formats is a way of representing the time value in different string formats in the Scheduler. By default, the time mode of the Scheduler can be either 12 or 24 hours format which is completely based on the locale set to the Scheduler. Since the default locale value of the Scheduler is en-US, the time mode will be set to 12 hours format automatically. You can also customize the format by using the timeFormat property. To know more about the time format standards, refer to the Date and Time Format section.

The following example demonstrates the Scheduler component in 24 hours format.

import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { ScheduleComponent, Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month, Inject, ViewsDirective, ViewDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';
const App = () => {
  const eventSettings = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  return (<ScheduleComponent height='550px' selectedDate={new Date(2018, 1, 15)} timeFormat="HH:mm" eventSettings={eventSettings}>
    <ViewsDirective>
      <ViewDirective option='Day' />
      <ViewDirective option='Week' />
      <ViewDirective option='WorkWeek' />
      <ViewDirective option='Month' />
    </ViewsDirective>
    <Inject services={[Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month]} />
  </ScheduleComponent>);
}
;
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('schedule'));
root.render(<App />);
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import {
  ScheduleComponent, Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month, Inject,
  ViewsDirective, ViewDirective, EventSettingsModel
} from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';

const App = () => {
  const eventSettings: EventSettingsModel = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  return (<ScheduleComponent height='550px' selectedDate={new Date(2018, 1, 15)} timeFormat="HH:mm" eventSettings={eventSettings}>
    <ViewsDirective>
      <ViewDirective option='Day' />
      <ViewDirective option='Week' />
      <ViewDirective option='WorkWeek' />
      <ViewDirective option='Month' />
    </ViewsDirective>
    <Inject services={[Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month]} />
  </ScheduleComponent>)
};
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('schedule'));
root.render(<App />);

Note: timeFormat property only accepts the valid time format’s.

First day of the week

By default, the first day of the week can be set on Scheduler by making use of the firstDayOfWeek property, doing so will make the Scheduler to start with that day.

Here, Sunday is always denoted as 0, Monday as 1 and so on.

import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { ScheduleComponent, Month, Week, WorkWeek, Inject, ViewsDirective, ViewDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule';

  return (<ScheduleComponent height='550px' selectedDate={new Date(2018, 1, 15)} firstDayOfWeek={3} eventSettings={eventSettings}>
    <ViewsDirective>
      <ViewDirective option='Week' />
      <ViewDirective option='WorkWeek' />
      <ViewDirective option='Month' />
    </ViewsDirective>

Displaying Scheduler in RTL mode

The Scheduler layout and its behavior can be changed as per the common RTL (Right to Left) conventions by setting enableRtl to true. By doing so, the Scheduler will display its usual layout from right to left. It’s default value is false.

import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { ScheduleComponent, Day, Week, WorkWeek, Inject, ViewsDirective, ViewDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule';
import { scheduleData } from './datasource';
const App = () => {
  const eventSettings = { dataSource: scheduleData };
  return <ScheduleComponent height='550px' selectedDate={new Date(2018, 1, 15)} enableRtl={true} eventSettings={eventSettings}>
    <ViewsDirective>
      <ViewDirective option='Day' />
      <ViewDirective option='Week' />
      <ViewDirective option='WorkWeek' />
    </ViewsDirective>
    <Inject services={[Day, Week, WorkWeek]} />
  </ScheduleComponent>;
}
;
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('schedule'));
root.render(<App />);

    <ViewsDirective>
      <ViewDirective option='Day' />
