Phoenix VerifiedRoutes and routes localization
I was reading the Localized routes and path prefixes section of the Phoenix.VerifiedRoutes and I found this line:
In this case, you would have a plug that looks at the host and at HTTP headers and calls Gettext.get_locale/1 accordingly.
It’s not clear to me how this plug should be used.
What I’m trying to achieve is localized routes based on the language, for example:
-
/loginfor English -
/accedifor Italian
but without maintaining multiple routers.
Ideally, I would like to define the route once, with all the routes in english, and have the URL automatically translated depending on the locale or domain.
Is this possible with a plug?
Perhaps something like a reverse route translation mechanism?
I also would like to avoid external dependencies.

That line is for the case of using the hostname to distinguish between languages - not doing so by path. The text following that paragraph is for when you want to use a path segment to determine the language.

I was hoping for a built-in solution, since I try to keep dependencies to a minimum whenever possible.
I’m familiar with Routex and have been looking through its source code. I like it a lot, but it feels a bit overcomplicated for my current needs. That said, I’m still evaluating my requirements, so I’m not ruling it out for my project.
