Manual Installation

If you prefer not to use either of the above mentioned dependency managers, you can integrate AALocalizationKit into your project manually by adding the files contained in the Classes folder to your project.

Getting Started

Just need to configure the supporting languages for Localization within your the iOS application in you AppDelegate didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method.

Following is the example to configure this with following languages support.

Usage:


func configureAALK() {
    let languageFont: [AALanguage : [UIFont.Weight : String]] = [
        .ar : [.regular: "Jomhuria"],
        
        .zhHans : [.regular: "Chibrush"],
        
        .fr : [.regular: "MuchaFrenchCapitals"],
        
        .de : [.regular: "LemonadeStand"],
        
        .en : [.regular: "Roboto-Regular",
               .medium: "Roboto-Medium",
               .bold: "Roboto-Bold"],
        
        .ja : [.regular: "NotoSerifJP-Regular",
               .medium: "NotoSerifJP-Medium",
               .bold: "NotoSerifJP-Bold"]
    ]
            
    AALK.configuration.languageFont = languageFont
    AALK.configuration.defaultFont = "Roboto"
}

Now just update the language in your view controller

let languageNames = AALK.bundleLanguageNames // get all bundle languages
let lang = AALK.languages[index] // where index is the language index for specific langauge
AALK.currentLanguage = lang // Set the language within your application

/// NOW YOU JUST NEED TO RECALL YOUR VIEW OR VIEW CONTROLLER TO SEE THE CHANGES
