I have a language change option from select in my code but want it through a link onClick event. The select-> option method is working but I can’t seem to make it work through onClick. I am sure I am missing something in my code but can’t seem to figure it out. When “en” is clicked, I want English and when “es” is clicked, Spanish which accesses the individual language files. Here is the code:
App.js
import React, { Component } from 'react'; import './App.css'; import { HashRouter as Router, Route } from 'react-router-dom'; import Home from './pages/Home'; import Portfolio from './pages/Portfolio'; import Work from './pages/Work'; import Servicios from './pages/Servicios'; import Contacto from './pages/Contacto'; import Team from './pages/Team'; import Aviso from './pages/Aviso'; class App extends Component { render() { const { lang } = this.props; return ( <Router basename="/"> <div> <Route exact path='/' component={Home} /> <Route exact path='/Portfolio' component={Portfolio} /> <Route exact path='/Work' component={Work} /> <Route exact path='/Servicios' component={Servicios} /> <Route exact path='/Contacto' component={Contacto} /> <Route exact path='/Team' component={Team} /> <Route exact path='/Aviso' component={Aviso} /> </div> </Router> ); } } export default App;
en.js
export default { slogan: 'Message A' }
es.js
export default { slogan: 'Mensaje A' }
Main.js

Answer
Because you are passing an explicit value, no need of events here:
onLangChange = (lang) => { this.setState({ lang }); counterpart.setLocale(lang); }
