Migrating from the old InContext editor

The InContext Editor feature has been fundamentally changed. Now the InContext Editor is part of the locize UI and not a separate web component anymore.
​tl;dr: Make sure to load this script and paste your website url in the in-built InContext view of the locize UI.
If you are using the old locize-editor this guide will help you to migrate to the new approach.
Migration should be straight forward...

1) Replace the old locize-editor

Replace the old locize-editor with the new locize script

with i18next​

import { locizePlugin } from 'locize';
​
i18next.use(locizePlugin)
​
// Using react-i18next you might want to bind the editorSaved event to trigger a rerender:
i18next.init({
// ...
react: {
bindI18n: 'languageChanged editorSaved'
}
})

with locizify​

The locize script is already included in locizify >= v4.1.0

with other as module

import { addLocizeSavedHandler } from 'locize';
​
addLocizeSavedHandler((res) => {
res.updated.forEach((item) => {
const { lng, ns, key, data } = item;
// load the translations somewhere...
// and maybe rerender your UI
})
});

with other in vanilla javascript

<script src="https://unpkg.com/locize/locize.min.js" />
window.locizeSavedHandler = (res) => {
res.updated.forEach((item) => {
const { lng, ns, key, data } = item;
// load the translations somewhere...
// and maybe rerender your UI
})
};

2) The new InContext view
