+# DigiComp.FlowTranslationEndpoint
+
+![Build status](https://ci.digital-competence.de/api/badges/Packages/DigiComp.FlowTranslationEndpoint/status.svg)
+
+This package is designed to help bringing needed translations to javascript components, without pushing them to the DOM in your views.
+
+Other solutions, which would generate files available for usage in client scope, have the disadvantage that one would have to repeat the relativ complex overriding and merging logic of Flow. With this endpoint you can get the same content, as you would get, if you call the translation service with your translation id.
+
+The main components are a `CurrentHtmlLangViewHelper`, which is intended to be used to fill the `lang` attribute of the `html` tag, so the frontend knows, which language is currently active (and is good practice anyway) and a `TranslationMiddleware`, which will respond to any request, which have a `X-Translation-Request` header, carrying a pattern of translation ids which should be returned.
+
+For example:
+````
+X-Translation-Request: Neos.Flow:Main|authentication.*
+````
+
+would return all translation keys from the main unit of `Neos.Flow` starting with "authentication" and would look like that:
+
+```json
+{
+    "Neos.Flow:Main": {
+        "authentication.required": "Authentication required", 
+        "authentication.username": "Username",
+        "authentication.password": "Password", 
+        "authentication.new-password": "New password",
+        "authentication.login": "Login", 
+        "authentication.logout": "Logout"
+    }
+}
+```
+
+To let the middleware know, in which langauge the translated units should be, you should set the correct `Accept-Language`-Header with your request, which you obtained from the `lang` attribute of the `html` element.
+
+Your JavaScript could look like that:
+
+```javascript
+async function translate(idPatterns) {
+    return fetch(document.location, {headers: {
+        'X-Translation-Request': idPatterns,
+        'Accept-Language': document.documentElement.lang
+    }})
+        .then(response => response.json());
+}
+```
+
+If, for whatever reason, you prefer to have a "traditional" single endpoint, which works without a custom header, you can set `DigiComp.FlowTranslationEndpoint.replaceRoutedEndpoint.reactOnPath`. At this point a middleware translates all incoming requests and the GET parameter `idPatterns` (you can change the name in Settings.yaml).
