# With Lingui example
|
|
|
|
This example shows a way to use [lingui.js](https://lingui.js.org) with next.js.
|
|
|
|
It adds a webpack loader for the messages to avoid having to manually compile while developing as well as adds the compile step to the `next build` script for production builds.
|
|
|
|
The example also uses a Higher order Component which can be added to all pages which will be translated and that checks for a `?lang` query string switch the language. Next.js will dynamically load in the messages for the locale when navigating using a Next.js `<Link />` component.
|
|
|
|

## How to use
|
|
|
|
Execute [`create-next-app`](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/packages/create-next-app) with [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/init) or [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/cli/create/) to bootstrap the example:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx create-next-app --example with-lingui with-lingui-app
|
|
# or

|
```
|
|
|

### How to add more translated strings
|
|
|
|
To add new strings use the [react component](https://lingui.js.org/tutorials/react-patterns.html#common-i18n-patterns-in-react) `<Trans />` and then run `yarn export` to export the messages into `locale/{language}/messages.po`.
|
|
|
|
### How to add another language
|
|
|
|
To add another language simply run `yarn add-locale <locale ...>` and it will create a new locale in the `locale/messages/` directory.
