Internationalization (i18n) Routing
Ta treść nie jest jeszcze dostępna w Twoim języku.
Astro’s internationalization (i18n) features allow you to adapt your project for an international audience. This routing API helps you generate, use, and verify the URLs that your multi-language site produces.
Astro’s i18n routing allows you to bring your multilingual content with support for configuring a default language, computing relative page URLs, and accepting preferred languages provided by your visitor’s browser. You can also specify fallback languages on a per-language basis so that your visitors can always be directed to existing content on your site.
Routing Logic
Section titled Routing LogicAstro uses a middleware to implement its routing logic. This middleware function is placed in the first position where it awaits every Response
coming from any additional middleware and each page route before finally executing its own logic.
This means that operations (e.g. redirects) from your own middleware and your page logic are run first, your routes are rendered, and then the i18n middleware performs its own actions such as verifying that a localized URL corresponds to a valid route.
You can also choose to add your own i18n logic in addition to or instead of Astro’s i18n middleware, giving you even more control over your routes while still having access to the astro:i18n
helper functions.
Configure i18n routing
Section titled Configure i18n routingBoth a default language (defaultLocale
) and a list of all supported languages (locales
) must be specified in an i18n
configuration object. Additionally, you can configure more specific routing and fallback behavior to match your desired URLs.
Create localized folders
Section titled Create localized foldersOrganize your content folders with localized content by language. Create individual /[locale]/
folders anywhere within src/pages/
and Astro’s file-based routing will create your pages at corresponding URL paths.
Your folder names must match the items in locales
exactly. Include a localized folder for your defaultLocale
only if you configure prefixDefaultLocale: true
to show a localized URL path for your default language (e.g. /en/about/).
Foldersrc
Folderpages
- about.astro
- index.astro
Folderes
- about.astro
- index.astro
Folderpt-br
- about.astro
- index.astro
The localized folders do not need to be at the root of the /pages/
folder.
Create links
Section titled Create linksWith i18n routing configured, you can now compute links to pages within your site using the helper functions such as getRelativeLocaleURL()
available from the astro:i18n
module. These generated links will always provide the correct, localized route and can help you correctly use, or check, URLs on your site.
You can also still write the links manually.
routing
Section titled routingAstro’s built-in file-based routing automatically creates URL routes for you based on your file structure within src/pages/
.
When you configure i18n routing, information about this file structure (and the corresponding URL paths generated) is available to the i18n helper functions so they can generate, use, and verify the routes in your project. Many of these options can be used together for even more customization and per-language flexibility.
You can even choose to implement your own routing logic manually for even greater control.
prefixDefaultLocale
Section titled prefixDefaultLocale
Dodane w:
astro@3.5.0
This routing option defines whether or not your default language’s URLs should use a language prefix (e.g. /en/about/
).
All non-default supported languages will use a localized prefix (e.g. /fr/
or /french/
) and content files must be located in appropriate folders. This configuration option allows you to specify whether your default language should also follow a localized URL structure.
This setting also determines where the page files for your default language must exist (e.g. src/pages/about/
or src/pages/en/about
) as the file structure and URL structure must match for all languages.
-
"prefixDefaultLocale: false"
(default): URLs in your default language will not have a/[locale]/
prefix. All other locales will. -
"prefixDefaultLocale: true"
: All URLs, including your default language, will have a/[locale]/
prefix.
prefixDefaultLocale: false
Section titled prefixDefaultLocale: falseThis is the default value. Set this option when URLs in your default language will not have a /[locale]/
prefix and files in your default language exist at the root of src/pages/
:
Foldersrc
Folderpages
- about.astro
- index.astro
Folderes
- about.astro
- index.astro
Folderfr
- about.astro
- index.astro
src/pages/about.astro
will produce the routeexample.com/about/
src/pages/fr/about.astro
will produce the routeexample.com/fr/about/
prefixDefaultLocale: true
Section titled prefixDefaultLocale: trueSet this option when all routes will have their /locale/
prefix in their URL and when all page content files, including those for your defaultLocale
, exist in a localized folder:
Foldersrc
Folderpages
- index.astro // Note: this file is always required
Folderen
- index.astro
- about.astro
Folderes
- about.astro
- index.astro
Folderpt-br
- about.astro
- index.astro
- URLs without a locale prefix, (e.g.
example.com/about/
) will return a 404 (not found) status code unless you specify a fallback strategy.
redirectToDefaultLocale
Section titled redirectToDefaultLocale
Dodane w:
astro@4.2.0
Configures whether or not the home URL (/
) generated by src/pages/index.astro
will redirect to /<defaultLocale>
.
Setting prefixDefaultLocale: true
will also automatically set redirectToDefaultLocale: true
in your routing
config object. By default, the required src/pages/index.astro
file will automatically redirect to the index page of your default locale.
You can opt out of this behavior by setting redirectToDefaultLocale: false
. This allows you to have a site home page that exists outside of your configured locale folder structure.
manual
Section titled manual
Dodane w:
astro@4.6.0
When this option is enabled, Astro will disable its i18n middleware so that you can implement your own custom logic. No other routing
options (e.g. prefixDefaultLocale
) may be configured with routing: "manual"
.
You will be responsible for writing your own routing logic, or executing Astro’s i18n middleware manually alongside your own.
Astro provides helper functions for your middleware so you can control your own default routing, exceptions, fallback behavior, error catching, etc: redirectToDefaultLocale()
, notFound()
, and redirectToFallback()
:
middleware function
Section titled middleware functionThe middleware
function manually creates Astro’s i18n middleware. This allows you to extend Astro’s i18n routing instead of completely replacing it.
You can run middleware
with routing options in combination with your own middleware, using the sequence
utility to determine the order:
domains
Section titled domains
Dodane w:
astro@4.9.0
This routing option allows you to customize your domains on a per-language basis for server
rendered projects using the @astrojs/node
or @astrojs/vercel
adapter with a site
configured.
Add i18n.domains
to map any of your supported locales
to custom URLs:
All non-mapped locales
will follow your prefixDefaultLocales
configuration. However, even if this value is false
, page files for your defaultLocale
must also exist within a localized folder. For the configuration above, an /en/
folder is required.
With the above configuration:
- The file
/fr/about.astro
will create the URLhttps://fr.example.com/about
. - The file
/es/about.astro
will create the URLhttps://example.es/about
. - The file
/ja/about.astro
will create the URLhttps://example.com/ja/about
. - The file
/en/about.astro
will create the URLhttps://example.com/about
.
The above URLs will also be returned by the getAbsoluteLocaleUrl()
and getAbsoluteLocaleUrlList()
functions.
fallback
Section titled fallbackAstro’s i18n routing allows you to configure a fallback routing strategy. When a page in one language doesn’t exist (e.g. a page that is not yet translated), instead of displaying a 404 page, you can redirect a user from one locale to another on a per-language basis. This is useful when you do not yet have a page for every route, but you want to still provide some content to your visitors.
For example, the configuration below sets es
as the fallback locale for any missing fr
routes. This means that a user visiting example.com/fr/my-page/
will be redirected to and shown the content for example.com/es/my-page/
instead of being taken to a 404 page when src/pages/fr/my-page.astro
does not exist.
Astro will ensure that a page is built in src/pages/fr
for every page that exists in src/pages/es/
. If the page does not already exist, then a page with a redirect to the corresponding es
route will be created.
Custom locale paths
Section titled Custom locale pathsIn addition to defining your site’s supported locales
as strings (e.g. “en”, “pt-br”), Astro also allows you to map an arbitrary number of browser-recognized language codes
to a custom URL path
. While locales can be strings of any format as long as they correspond to your project folder structure, codes
must follow the browser’s accepted syntax.
Pass an object to the locales
array with a path
key to define a custom URL prefix, and codes
to indicate the languages mapped to this URL. In this case, your /[locale]/
folder name must match exactly the value of the path
and your URLs will be generated using the path
value.
This is useful if you support multiple variations of a language (e.g. "fr"
, "fr-BR"
, and "fr-CA"
) and you want to have all these variations mapped under the same URL /fr/
, or even customize it entirely (e.g. /french/
):
When using functions from the astro:i18n
virtual module to compute valid URL paths based on your configuration (e.g. getRelativeLocaleUrl()
), use the path
as the value for locale
.
Limitations
Section titled LimitationsThis feature has some restrictions:
- The
site
option is mandatory. - The
output
option must be set to"server"
. - There cannot be any individual prerendered pages.
- The adapter feature
functionPerRoute
is not supported.
Astro relies on the following headers in order to support the feature:
X-Forwarded-Host
andHost
. Astro will use the former, and if not present, will try the latter.X-Forwarded-Proto
andURL#protocol
of the server request.
Make sure that your server proxy/hosting platform is able to provide this information. Failing to retrieve these headers will result in a 404 (status code) page.
Browser language detection
Section titled Browser language detectionAstro’s i18n routing allows you to access two properties for browser language detection in pages rendered on demand: Astro.preferredLocale
and Astro.preferredLocaleList
. All pages, including static prerendered pages, have access to Astro.currentLocale
.
These combine the browser’s Accept-Language
header, and your locales
(strings or codes
) to automatically respect your visitor’s preferred languages.
-
Astro.preferredLocale
: Astro can compute a preferred locale for your visitor if their browser’s preferred locale is included in yourlocales
array. This value is undefined if no such match exists. -
Astro.preferredLocaleList
: An array of all locales that are both requested by the browser and supported by your website. This produces a list of all compatible languages between your site and your visitor. The value is[]
if none of the browser’s requested languages are found in yourlocales
array. If the browser does not specify any preferred languages, then this value will bei18n.locales
. -
Astro.currentLocale
: The locale computed from the current URL, using the syntax specified in yourlocales
configuration. If the URL does not contain a/[locale]/
prefix, then the value will default toi18n.defaultLocale
.
In order to successfully match your visitors’ preferences, provide your codes
using the same pattern used by the browser.
