Globalization
The globalization process combines the translation of component messages with adapting them to specific cultures.
For more information on how globalization practices are implemented in Kendo UI for Angular, refer to the overview article. For more information on the globalization aspects which are available for each component, refer to the article on globalization support.
The following example demonstrates how to:
- Set a Spanish culture locale.
- Use the Spanish date format for month names in the Calendar.
- Use the Spanish date format in the DateInput.
- Use the Spanish date format for month names in the DatePicker.
- Use the Spanish time format in the TimePicker.
- Use the Spanish date and time format for month names in the DateTimePicker.
Internationalization
The internationalization (i18n) process applies specific culture formats to a web application.
For more information, refer to:
- Kendo UI documentation on internationalization
- kendo-intl (the base Internationalization package on GitHub)
Messages
The Date Inputs support both built-in and custom messages.
Built-In Messages
To translate the built-in Date Inputs messages, utilize the Angular i18n framework. For more information, refer to the article on localization.
Custom Messages
You can also override individual messages for each instance of any Date Inputs by utilizing the attribute bindings. To use them, you do not have to set up the application for i18n.
In i18n applications, message attributes take precedence over localized text from translation files.
The following example demonstrates how to customize the built-in messages of the Calendar, MutliViewCalendar, DateInput, DatePicker, DateTimePicker, and TimePicker.
Right-to-Left Support
The Date Inputs do not provide RTL support.
