Re: [go-nuts] How can I fetch the default locale (server locale not from the request) in Golang

[Anish P]

Just an update on the same. Even the library from "Jibber-Jabber" seems to
be returning only empty string values.

Forced to set this as an ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE for the time being and moving
on.

Thanks for the details. Had a look earlier at the code mentioned by
Jibber-Jabber
as you mentioned. Will post the status as soon as I try this out.

Re: [go-nuts] How can I fetch the default locale (server locale not from the request) in Golang

[uwe . dauernheim]

Java’s Locale.getDefault returns (if not overridden) the values from the system 
property “user.language” and “user.region”. If these are not set, it simply 
returns “en”. See 
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u60/jdk/file/935758609767/src/share/classes/java/util/Locale.java

For Linux: These system properties (if not overridden) are set on Linux by 
interpreting the environment variable “LANG”. See 
https://docs.oracle.com/javame/config/cdc/cdc-opt-impl/ojmeec/1.0/runtime/html/localization.htm

Thus the equivalent code in Go would be to access this environment variable. 
Thus a simple `locale = os.Getenv("LANG")` or as Jibber-Jabber does it:

```
locale = os.Getenv("LC_ALL")
if locale == "" {
locale = os.Getenv("LANG")
}
```

If it is correct that, as you stated, that you have no access to environment 
variables, you won’t be able to conclude more than “en” to be compatible with 
Java’s behavior.

My bad.

I was referring to the same.Something which is packaged in go giving a
standard locale ID as q_AL, ar_DZ

For what it's worth, I don't usually call the timezone a "locale".  In
programming, "locale" usually refers to language related issues.  See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locale_(computer_software) .

To get the timezone name, see https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.Zone .

What operating system?

What format do you want for the locale?

Re: [go-nuts] How can I fetch the default locale (server locale not from the request) in Golang

[prabhakaran . anish1986]

The intention is basically to send out translations from the deployed 
shard. Hence,we are trying to find the locale of the server locale. Because 
of some reason, we cannot extract this as an environment variable on the 
shard or get it from the client.

Go doesn't use locales in the same way that Java does.  If you tell us
what you want to do with that information, we may be able to help.
You may want to look at https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/text .

[go-nuts] How can I fetch the default locale (server locale not from the request) in Golang

[prabhakaran . anish1986]

Hello All,
  I'm a newbee to Golang and am trying to fetch the default server locale. 
Can you help me how I can fetch the default server locale in golang?

In other words, I'm looking for the Java equivalent code in golang i.e '
Locale.getDefault()'

Thanks
Anish
