Datepicker

Translating (internationalization of) the default English DatePicker in Vaadin (Flow) is quite straightforward. I created a compact subroutine for effortless reuse in all of my date pickers. // Declaration private final DatePicker birthday = new DatePicker("Geburtstag"); // Set German DatePicker birthday.setI18n(Parsers.setGermanDatePicker()); The code above calls the “setGermanDatePicker” method, which is located in the “Parsers” class in my specific case. /** * Set German DatePicker * Fill the DatePickerI18n with German values (First day Monday, etc.) * * @return */ public static DatePickerI18n setGermanDatePicker() { DatePickerI18n dpI18n = new DatePicker.DatePickerI18n(); dpI18n.setDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy"); dpI18n.setFirstDayOfWeek(1); dpI18n.setToday("Heute"); dpI18n.setCancel("Abbrechen"); dpI18n.setMonthNames(List.of("Januar", "Februar", "März", "April", "Mai", "Juni", "Juli", "August", "September", "Oktober", "November", "Dezember")); dpI18n.setWeekdays(List.of("Sonntag", "Montag", "Dienstag", "Mittwoch", "Donnerstag", "Freitag", "Samstag")); dpI18n.setWeekdaysShort(List.of("So", "Mo", "Di", "Mi", "Do", "Fr", "Sa")); return dpI18n; } It should be simple to adapt the above code for other languages or more complex situations, such as translating based on the locale passed to the function. However, I only require German for this Vaadin app. ...
