PSC.Maui.Components.LanguageDropdown 8.0.22

Language Dropdown from MAUI

A component for MAUI is to display a dropdown with languages. Include all the flags in SVG format and functions to get all language data. The Language Dropdown for MAUI is available on NuGet as a package to use in your non-commercial applications. If you would like to use it for commercial use, please send me a message.

For more information about this component, please see my post on PureSourceCode.

Usage

First, the package has to be added to your project. You can install it with this command from the dotnet CLI

dotnet add package PSC.Maui.Components.LanguageDropdown --version 8.0.0

or with the NuGet command

Install-Package PSC.Maui.Components.LanguageDropdown -Version 8.0.0

Then, the component has to be registered in your application. The component requires the CommunityToolkit.Maui and must be added in the MauiProgram.cs after that.

public static class MauiProgram
{
    public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
    {
        var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
        builder
            .UseMauiApp<App>()
            .UseMauiCommunityToolkit()
            .UseLanguageDropdown()
            .ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
            {
                fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
                fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Semibold.ttf", "OpenSansSemibold");
            });

#if DEBUG
    	builder.Logging.AddDebug();
#endif

        return builder.Build();
    }
}

Now, you can use the component in the application.

How to add the component

In your MAUI ContentView or ContentPage. the reference to the component must be added like in the following example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ContentPage
    x:Class="LanguageDropdownDemo.MainPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2021/maui"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
    xmlns:components="clr-namespace:PSC.Maui.Components.LanguageDropdown;assembly=PSC.Maui.Components.LanguageDropdown"
    xmlns:local="clr-namespace:LanguageDropdownDemo.ViewModels">

    <ScrollView>
        <VerticalStackLayout Padding="30,0" Spacing="25">
		<components:LanguageDropdown
			x:Name="ldd"
                        BorderColor="Gray"
			IsDisplayPickerControl="{Binding IsDisplayPickerControl}"
			Placeholder="This is a test"
			SelectedItem="{Binding LanguageItem}" />

                <Image
                    HeightRequest="50"
                    Source="f_gb.png"
                    WidthRequest="50" />

                 <Image
                     HeightRequest="50"
                     Source="{Binding LanguageItem.Flag}"
                     WidthRequest="50" />
                 <Label HorizontalTextAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding LanguageItem.LanguageName}" />
        </VerticalStackLayout>
    </ScrollView>
</ContentPage>
