crates.io version crate documentation MSRV crates.io downloads CI

A small and lightweight Rust library to get the current active locale on the system.

sys-locale is small library to get the current locale set for the system or application with the relevant platform APIs. The library is also no_std compatible, relying only on alloc, except on Linux and BSD.

Platform support currently includes:

  • Android
  • iOS (and derivatives such as watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS)
  • macOS
  • Linux, BSD, and other UNIX variations
  • WebAssembly, for the following platforms:
    • Inside of a web browser (via the js feature)
    • Emscripten (via the UNIX backend) Further support for other WASM targets is dependent on upstream support in those target's runtimes and specifications.
  • Windows
use sys_locale::get_locale;

let locale = get_locale().unwrap_or_else(|| String::from("en-US"));

println!("The current locale is {}", locale);

MSRV

The Minimum Supported Rust Version is currently 1.56.0. This will be bumped to a newer stable version of Rust when needed.
