Localization in Vue Kanban component

16 Mar 202310 minutes to read

The localization library allows you to localize the default text content of the Kanban to different cultures using the locale property.

In Kanban, total count and min or max count text alone will be localized based on culture.

Locale key	en-US (default)
items	items
min	Min
max	Max
cardsSelected	Cards Selected
addTitle	Add New Card
editTitle	Edit Card Details
deleteTitle	Delete Card
deleteContent	Are you sure you want to delete this card?
save	Save
delete	Delete
cancel	Cancel
yes	Yes
no	No
close	Close
noCard	No cards to display
unassigned	Unassigned

Loading translations

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

The following example demonstrates the Kanban in Deutsch culture.

  <div id="app">
       <ejs-kanban id="kanban" keyField="Status" :dataSource="kanbanData"
        :cardSettings="cardSettings" :swimlaneSettings="swimlaneSettings" locale='de'>
          <e-columns>
            <e-column headerText="To Do" keyField="Open" minCount= "6"></e-column>
            <e-column headerText="In Progress" keyField="InProgress" maxCount= "3"></e-column>

Right to left (RTL)

The Kanban provides an option to switch its text direction and layout from right to left. It improves the user experiences and accessibility for users who use right-to-left languages (Arabic, Farsi, Urdu, etc.). To enable right-to-left mode in Kanban, set the enableRtl to true.
