Translation of popoverTitle for colvis?

thosefacts

Hello. Is it possible to translate the popoverTitle for colvis? I have tried using

popoverTitle: function(dt) { dt.i18n('buttons.colvis.popoverTitle', '') };  

instead of a string, but this just outputs the function declaration as a text.

layout: {
            topStart: {
                buttons: [
                    {
                        extend: 'colvis',
                        columns: ':not(:first-child)',
                        popoverTitle: 'Missing translation options?',
                        postfixButtons: ['colvisRestore']
                    },
                ]
            },

The popoverTitle option of collection only allows a string at the moment, so you'd need to to the translation up front. There isn't currently an option to have it has a function, but I think that is a good idea and I've logged that to make the change.

Thank you for the answer, Allan. Yes it would be nice to have that as an option. I figured out that I can call the appropriate path for the translation. Short example on how it can be done:

JSON:

{
    "buttons": {
        "colvis": {
            "_": "Button title",
            "popoverTitle": "Popover title"
        },
    }
}

JS:

const translations = (path to json);

buttons: [
    {
        extend: 'colvis',
        columns: ':not(:first-child)',
        popoverTitle: translations.buttons.colvis.popoverTitle,
        postfixButtons: ['colvisRestore']
    }
],
