Package loads languages from server, not from Cordova's local storage

[derwaldgeist]

If this package is used on a Cordova device, it still tries to load the language file from the server instead of the local storage (http://meteor.local). This has two effects:

1. The language switch does not work if the device is in offline mode
2. Even if the device is in online mode, it throws an error:

No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://meteor.local' is therefore not allowed access.

This is because the Meteor server is considered as being a different location than the local storage and it does not send a CORS compliant header.

I would have expected that this package is intended to load the language files from the local Cordova filesystem, using the http://meteor.local location. Otherwise, it does not make much sense to me to store the files locally. Did I get something wrong?

That's strange behaviour. I've just tested with cordova using cdn_path: 'i18n' and it seems to be loading as expected.

Request URL:http://meteor.local/i18n/de.json
Request Method:GET

Are you sure that issue #2 was solved using /i18n instead, as it seems to be working with i18n for me? I've pushed an example app to show this.

Failing that, could you provide a reproduction?

Thanks!

same for me

XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://10.2.83.191:3001/i18n/de.json. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://meteor.local' is therefore not allowed access.

shouldnt the file from /public/i18n be requested?

@miri-am what is your cdn_path, and do you have a reproduction?

Also what version of tap:i18n ?

thanks

[miri-am]

Nevermind, now it works again. I am not sure what the reason was (might have been an extra /before the paths. This one is working now (with tap:i18n 1.7.0). Thanks for responding.

{
    "helper_name": "_",
    "supported_languages": ["de", "en"],
    "i18n_files_route": "i18n",
    "cdn_path": "i18n",
    "preloaded_langs": ["*"]
}

[IstoraMandiri]

Excellent - good to hear. It may be that tap:i18n was below 1.6.something, which also didn't support cordova.

[miri-am]

little revision. My config from above throws a jsonerror outside of cordova. Seems like I need to use the following config:

{
    "helper_name": "_",
    "supported_languages": ["de", "en"],
    "i18n_files_route": "/i18n",
    "cdn_path": "i18n",
    "preloaded_langs": ["*"]
}

The cdn_path needs to be without the /but the i18n_files_route needs it. Otherwise it will work either in Cordova or in Web but not in both.

[IstoraMandiri]

the i18n_files_route should be ignored if cdn_path if set -- does it make a difference if ou remove i18n_files_route ?

[miri-am]

you are correct. Seems to be working after removal. Thanks!
