Datatables Editor i18n for nested Datatables + Editor

Datatables Editor i18n for nested Datatables + Editor

SeanvbeurdenSeanvbeurden Posts: 2Questions: 1Answers: 0

I use the DataTables Editor field "datatable" to initiate DataTables + Editor inside the Editor of the "main" table. I try to configure the language via URL, which works well for the initial DataTable en its Editor and the nested DataTable, but not for the nested Editor. I have set the language in the config of the nested datatable like this:

type: "datatable",
        editor: partnerEditor,
        config: {
          language: {
            url: locale.datatablesTranslationLink(),
          },

The function datatablesTranslationLink returns a string like this:

`${__dirname}/../../json/datatables/datatables${
      language
    }.json`

Do I need to reference somewhere in the nested Editor setup to use the language file?
I have tried setting it in the beginning of the JS file:

$.extend(true, $.fn.dataTable.Editor.defaults, {
  i18n: {
      url: locale.datatablesTranslationLink(),
  }
});

But this didn't do anything.
The JSON is composed as follows:

I can't give you a working example, because the rest of the script uses a lot of state (which is intertwined with the DataTables API a lot) and the site has a lot of vulnerable data.

    Hi, you can do that much easier by setting Data Tables and Editor defaults. Then you don't have to do anything during Editor and Data Table initialization. The code also works for field type "datatable" and parent-child-editing. Make sure you run this code before initialization. Then you don't need any "language" and "i18n" options in your Data Table and Editor definitions.

    I have two languages: German (Germany) and English (UK)

    This is for Editor (in case of German; English is the default anyway)

    if (lang === 'de') {
        $.extend( true, $.fn.dataTable.Editor.defaults, {            
            i18n: {
                remove: {
                    button: "Löschen",
                    title:  "Eintrag löschen",
                    submit: "Endgültig Löschen",
                    confirm: {
                        _: 'Sind Sie sicher, dass Sie die %d ausgewählten Zeilen löschen wollen?',
                        1: 'Sind Sie sicher, dass Sie die ausgewählte Zeile löschen wollen?'
                    }
                },
                edit: {
                    button: "Bearbeiten",
                    title:  "Eintrag bearbeiten",
                    submit: "Änderungen speichern"
                },
                create: {
                    button: "Neuer Eintrag",
                    title:  "Neuen Eintrag anlegen",
                    submit: "Neuen Eintrag speichern"
                },
                datetime: {
                        previous: 'Zurück',
                        next:     'Weiter',
                        months:   [ 'Januar', 'Februar', 'März', 'April', 'Mai', 'Juni', 'Juli', 'August', 'September', 'Oktober', 'November', 'Dezember' ],
                        weekdays: [ 'So', 'Mo', 'Di', 'Mi', 'Do', 'Fr', 'Sa' ],
                        amPm:     [ 'am', 'pm' ],
                        hours:    'Stunde',
                        minutes:  'Minute',
                        seconds:  'Sekunde',
                        unknown:  '-'
                },
                error: {
                        system: "Ein Systemfehler ist aufgetreten (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"//datatables.net/tn/12\">Für mehr Informationen</a>)."
                },
                multi: {
                        title: "Mehrere Werte",         
                        info: "Die ausgewählten Zeilen enthalten verschiedene Werte für dieses Feld. Um alle Zeilen auf den gleichen Wert zu setzen, \n\
                               klicken Sie bitte hier. Ansonsten werden die Zeilen ihren individuellen Wert für das Feld behalten.",
                        restore: "Änderungen rückgängig machen",
                        noMulti: "Dieses Feld kann einzeln bearbeitet werden, aber nicht als Teil einer Gruppe."
                }
            }      
        });
    }
    

    This is for all of my data tables. Here I also add something to the English defaults.

    if (lang === 'de') {
        $.extend( true, $.fn.dataTable.defaults, {
            "language": {
                "decimal": ",",

    @rf1234 Thanks for the quick response!
    If I paste in the JSON for the Editor literally it indeed works.

    I want to have the translation logic in the locale Class (Typescript).
    It really adds to the load to have this logic duplicated over multiple files.

    While typing I got an idea and it works, just made a method that returns an object with the data, so the logic is encapsulated in the class.

    It still isn't perfect, but it works for now so I will set the question as answered

    Glad you found a solution!

    While I don't speak Dutch and cannot follow a Dutch conversation I can more or less read it.
    I really like this one "Er is iets fout gegaan" :smile:

    Have a great weekend!
