Translating inside a JS file?

[ZaxxaDK]

Hey guys

i last couple of days i have had many questions to my first prestashop module, and now im here again

 

When working with a .JS file, how do i handle the translation?

I have a JS filled called myJavaScript.js, that i inject into the header of my plugin - and inside that file i have some stuff i want to have translated.

I read about the {literals}, and tried to put it around my code - but didnt quite seem to be able to get it to work! so maybe somebody can point me in the right direction ?

You can use addJsDefL actually:

See  the section named

Adding javascript variable definitions


That works if you are inside a template and your js uses jquery with document.ready.

If not, you can use Media::addJsDefL from your php, before including the js file into the header

Where do i add this addJsDefL / Media::addJsDefL ? i dont want to overwrite some of the prestashop standart behaviour - but i looks very smart if it works  how i think it does

In the same php method (usually hookDisplayHeader) you use to add your js. I take it as you are following standards. If not, check out the other Essential PrestaShop functions tutorials
