useTranslations

Loads the translations CMS collection as a locale-specific translation tree.

When to use it​

Locale defaults to the runtime language; tenant and environment options can scope the read.

Setup​

Call it from a client-side React component below OvokProvider so it uses the client configured at that provider boundary.

Hook arguments​

ArgumentTypeDetails
options (optional)OvokCmsOptionsTyped query or list options; see the API reference for its complete field contract.

TypeScript signature​

(options?: OvokCmsOptions): OvokRequestState<OvokTranslations>

Request state​

The response payload is OvokTranslations. A successful empty result, a failed request, and a request that has not returned data are distinct states.

FieldMeaning
dataLatest successful response, or undefined before one is available.
loadingWhether the request is in progress.
errorRequest error as an Error, or undefined when no request has failed.
reloadRepeats the request with the current arguments.

Request behavior​

The hook loads when its required inputs are available and reloads when those inputs change. Use reload for an explicit refresh; render loading, error, and successful no-result states separately.

Example​

Handle the hook's loading and error states before rendering the result.

import { useTranslations } from '@ovok/core';

export function TranslationsExample({ options }: { options?: Parameters<typeof useTranslations>[0] }) {
  const { data, loading, error, reload } = useTranslations(options);
  if (loading) return <p>Loading…</p>;
  if (error) return <p role="alert">{error.message}</p>;
  return <section><button onClick={reload}>Reload</button><pre>{JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)}</pre></section>;
}
