Cancel reloading of language

I use i18next in my node app to internazionalize it.

My settings :

i18next.init({
    load: 'current',
    saveMissing: true,
    sendMissingTo : 'all',
    ignoreRoutes: ['img/','images/', 'public/', 'css/', 'js/'],
    debug: true,
    supportedLngs: ['en-US', 'fr-FR'],
    fallbackLng: 'fr-FR'
});

On the client side I have two links for changing the language :

<a href="/setLanguage/en-US">English</a>
<a href="/setLanguage/fr-FR">Francais</a>

and on the server side I catch the two possibilities (I change the language ad redirect to the Welcome page):

app.get('/setLanguage/:lng', function(req, res){
    console.log('Change language : ' + req.params.lng);
    i18next.setLng(req.params.lng, function(){
           res.redirect('/');
    });
});

The problem is point 2 :

  1. that change correctly the selected language
  2. redirecting to the '/' reload the language to default value.

How to not reload it ?

From docs, you have the following options:

  • add ?setLng=<language> to URL
  • setting i18next cookie

setLng method was removed.
