req.acceptedLanguages
An array containing the "acceptable" response languages specified by the user agent in the "Accept-Language" header of this request (req
).
Usage
req.acceptedLanguages;
Details
req.acceptedLanguages
contains all the languages specified by the request's Accept-Language
header (see RFC-2616.)
This method is used by Sails internally for its implementation of internationalization and localization. The i18n hook automatically serves different content to different locales, based on the request.
Example
req.acceptedLanguages;
// -> ['en-US', 'en']
Notes
- See the
accepts
module for the finer details of the header parsing algorithm used in Sails/Express/Koa/Connect.- Browsers send the "Accept-Language" header automatically based on the user's language settings.
- You can expect the "Accept-Language" header to exist in most requests which originate from web browsers.
