Configure Hosts Array for Multi-Language in NetSuite SCA 2023.2

Configure the hosts Array

Configure the hosts Array

This procedure applies to the Mont Blanc and Denali releases of SCA.

To configure the hosts array:

1. Follow the steps presented in Set Up NetSuite for Localized Content.

2. Set up a hosted domain for each language on your site. See Domains for details on how to create new hosted domains.

3. Set up the SspLibraries module for customization.

   See Develop Your SCA Customization for detailed information.

4. Open the Configuration.js file in the newly created module.

5. In the hosts array, define a unique host for each location with the title property.

6. For each host, define the currencies and languages arrays using the properties in this section.

   Note:

   For detailed information on the hosts array for Mont Blanc and Denali implementations, see Hosts Array Parameters (pre-Vinson).

   For example, say you want to set up a multi-language site with three locations: the United States, South America, and France. For each, you could define specific currencies and languages as shown in the table below:

   Location

   Currencies

   Languages

   United States

   U.S. Dollar

   English

   South America

   U.S. Dollar

   Argentinian Peso

   Uruguayan Peso

   Spanish

   Portuguese

   English

   France

   Euro

   U.S. Dollar

   French

   You set up NetSuite for multiple languages and enable the right languages and currencies, then create hosted domains for each translated language. The locale string must specify the country code and culture code for each language, using ISO standards (ISO 639 and ISO 3166 respectively). For example: en_US or es_ES.

   Here's an example of how your customization might look:

   jsonCopy

   1,   hosts: [
   2         {
   3            title:'United States'
   4         ,   currencies:[
   5               {
   6                  title:'American Dollars'
   7               ,   code:'USD'
   8               }
   9            ]
   10         ,   languages:[
   11               {
   12                  title:'English'
   13               ,   host:'en.mysite.com'
   14               ,   locale:'en_US'
   15               }
   16            ]
   17         }
   18         ,   {
   19            title:'South America'
   20         ,   currencies:[
   21               {
   22                  title:'American Dollars'
   23               ,   code:'USD'
   24               }
   25            ,   {

   31               ,   code:'UYU'
   32               }
   33            ]
   34         ,   languages:[
   35               {
   36                  title:'Spanish'
   37               ,   host:'sa.mysite.dev'
   38               ,   locale:'es_ES'
   39               }   
   40            ,   {
   41                  title:'Portuguese'
   42               ,   host:'pt.sa.mysite.dev'
   43               ,   locale:'pt_BR'
   44               }
   45            ,   {
   46                  title:'English'
   47               ,   host:'en.sa.mysite.dev'
   48               ,   locale:'en'
   49               }
   50            ]
   51         },
   52         {
   53            title:'French'
   54         ,   currencies:[
   55               {
   56                  title:'Euro'
   57               ,   code:'EUR'
   58               }
   59            ,   {
   60                  title:'American Dolars'
   61               ,   code:'USD'
   62               }
   63            ]
   64         ,   languages:[
   65               {
   66                  title:'French'
   67               ,   host:'fr.mysite.com'
   68               ,   locale:'fr_FR'
   69               }
   70            ]
   71         }
   72      ]

7. Deploy the module to your site.
