Localization using ex_cldr
I am trying to use ex_cldr for localization. I want to use path parameters to change languages and it doesn’t work, but works with query parameters. Requesting http://localhost:4000/en will use fa as locale but http://localhost:4000/?locale=en uses en.
I have added this to the endpoint.ex:
plug Cldr.Plug.SetLocale,
apps: [:cldr, :gettext],
from: [:path, :query],
gettext: MyAppWeb.Gettext,
cldr: MyApp.Cldr
This is the cldr module:
defmodule MyApp.Cldr do
use Cldr,
locales: ["en", "fa"],
default_locale: "fa",
gettext: MyAppWeb.Gettext
end
And my routes:
scope "/:locale" do
pipe_through [:browser, :simple_layout]
pow_routes()
end
scope "/:locale", MyAppWeb do
pipe_through :browser
get "/", PageController, :index
end
scope "/:locale/admin", MyAppWeb do
pipe_through [:browser, :protected, :admin_layout]
end
scope "/" do
pipe_through [:browser, :simple_layout]
pow_routes()
end
scope "/", MyAppWeb do
pipe_through :browser
get "/", PageController, :index
end
scope "/admin", MyAppWeb do
pipe_through [:browser, :protected, :admin_layout]
end

Clearly demonstrating my lack of Phoenix knowledge. But it looks like you would need to put Cldr.Plug.SetLocale in your pipeline, not the endpoint. Possible you can try that? As best I can tell from the docs, the pipeline is not run unless a route is found - and I believe when a route is found that path_params is decoded.
So, for example:
pipeline :browser do
plug :fetch_session
plug :accepts, ["html"]
plug Cldr.Plug.SetLocale,
apps: [:cldr, :gettext],
from: [:path, :query],
gettext: MyAppWeb.Gettext,
cldr: MyApp.Cldr
end

That’s true. Pipelines are run after a route is matched, as the matched route determines which pipelines need to run.

Thanks that worked.
P.S.
You were right path_params was empty at that point in endpoint. I used another plug to test that. Previously I have check it near the end of processing pipeline.
