[Inlang Paraglide] Dynamic key in runtime - Mainly using in the web-builder

[harrytran998]

Hi Inlang team, currently we have a product allows user can drag-drop components to customize their website, and they can define whatever they want, for example: product.add_cart, button.continue... in each component.
Our current solution was to save all customization locales in a user API, to get the json files and serve it in runtime.

So, do your team have any idea how to do this? Thank you for reading and please ask any questions if you are not clear about that.

If I understand correctly you want to allow users to create & edit translations dynamically. Unfortunately this isn't practical with Paraglide, as it is a compiler and therefore needs to know all translations at built time.

If I'm misunderstanding please elaborate on your usecase

[harrytran998]

Yeah, that's what I mean. Because in the real-life scenario, the translation might be translated dynamically with the translator teams, they can CRUD translations somewhere, and the project must know that to fetch and transform the translations.

If you have continuous deployment you can actually do that with Paraglide. We have an online translation editor called Fink where translators can edit translations, and changes to translations get automatically pushed to your repo. Here is a Guide on how it works.

I understand that if you have an existing Project you may not be able to switch, but if you are starting from scratch you could give it a try!
