I'm working with i18next for react https://github.com/i18next/react-i18next. I'm struggling to break lines within the string in my JSON language file.
This is what I already tried, which doesn't break a new line:
line: "This is a line. \n This is another line. \n Yet another line"
,
line: ("This is a line."+ <br/> + "This is another line. \n Yet another line")
,
line: ('This is a line. <br/> This is another line. \n Yet another line')
,
I obviously try to make a new line after each sentence. This is how I call it:
<TooltipLink onClick={() => {
this.toggleHelpTextDialog(t('test:test.line'));
}}/>
Any ideas? Thanks!
You can do it with css white-space: pre-line;
& \n
in the translation text.
const root = document.getElementById('root');
i18next.init({
lng: 'en',
resources: {
en: {
translation: {
"key": "Hello world\nThis sentence should appear on the second line"
}
}
}
}, function(err, t) {
// initialized and ready to go!
root.innerHTML = i18next.t('key');
});
#root {
white-space: pre-line;
}
<script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/umd/i18next.min.js"></script>
<div id="root"></div>
