What's the best way to get device locale in react native (iOS)?

Question

Something similar to [NSLocale currentLocale] in Objective-C.

Answer 1

NativeModules solution can be changed over time by Facebook developers.
Because of this reason I had prepared a component. (It works only on Android for now)

Sample usage:

import SystemSettings from 'react-native-system-settings'

SystemSettings.get(
    settings => console.log('settings: ', settings)
)

Also promise-then can be used:

SystemSettings.get().then(settings => console.log('settings: ', settings)).done()

Also ES7 async-await method can be used!

class App extends React.Component {
    componentWillMount() {
        this._loadInitialState()
    }

    _loadInitialState = async () => {
        try {
            let settings = await SystemSettings.get()
            // Now settings variable would be filled and can be used!
        } catch (error) {}
    };
}

A sample result:

{
    densityDpi: 320,
    fontScale: 1,
    hardKeyboardHidden: "no",
    keyboard: "qwerty",
    keyboardHidden: "no",
    localization: {
        country: "US",
        displayCountry: "United States",
        displayLanguage: "English",
        displayName: "English (United States)",
        is24HourFormat: false,
        language: "en",
        locale: "en_US",
        networkCountry: "US",
        simCountry: "US",
        timeZone: {
            ID: "Europe/Amsterdam",
            displayName: {
                long: "Amsterdam Standard Time",
                short: "GMT+01:00",
            },
            offset: 3600000
        }
    },
    orientation: "portrait",
    screenHeightDp: 615,
    screenLayout: "normal",
    screenWidthDp: 360,
    smallestScreenWidthDp: 360,
    uiModeType: "normal"
}
