req.setLocale()Override the inferred locale for this request.
Normally, the locale is determined on a per-request basis based on incoming request headers (i.e. a user's browser or device language settings). This command overrides that setting for a particular request.
req.setLocale(override);
To allow users to specify their own language settings:
if (this.req.me.preferredLocale) {
this.req.setLocale(this.req.me.preferredLocale);
}
return exits.success();
Or, if you are not using the "Web app" template and/or actions2:
var me = await User.findOne({ id: req.session.userId });
if (me.preferredLocale) {
req.setLocale(me.preferredLocale);
}
return res.view('pages/homepage');
