Localization of the Block

The localization of the block is defined in the manifest file and allows for the use of translated labels for different languages.

Localization Keys in the ManifestLocalization Keys in the Manifest

Two keys are used for localization:

• lang_original - the original language of the phrases in the manifest
• lang - the set of translations by language

In the lang array, the keys are the original phrases from the manifest, and the values are the translations of those phrases.

Example:

'lang_original' => 'en',
        'lang' => [
            'de' => [
                'Title with a separator on a light background' => 'Titel mit Trennlinie auf hellem Hintergrund',
                'Title' => 'Uberschrift',
                'Text' => 'Text',
                'Button' => 'Schaltflache',
            ],
            'fr' => [
                'Title with a separator on a light background' => 'Titre avec separateur sur fond clair',
                'Title' => 'Titre',
                'Text' => 'Texte',
                'Button' => 'Bouton',
            ],
        ],
        

How Localization is AppliedHow Localization is Applied

The system iterates through the manifest and searches for translations in the lang array for text labels:

• first for the current language of the account
• if there is no translation and lang_original differs from the current language of the account, the translation from en is used as a fallback

If a suitable translation is not found, the original phrase from the lang_original language remains.
