Set datable language option to multi lang based on the locale variable

FranckF

Hi team,
this is a conceptual question:
is it possible to set "language" on the locale variable to provide multi lang?
All I foundin forum is how to set only one language based on a url or hardcoding in js.

It certainly is, although the exact way to do it will depend upon your setup. For example, you might want to have a "DataTables dictionary":

var dtDic = {
  en: { ... },
  fr: { ... },
};

Then you'd use language: dtDic[locale] in your DataTables initialisation.

If you have all the language files for DataTables being Ajax loaded, then you could include the locale in the URL (as a parameter or part of the path, depending on how you have things set up).
