Internationalization: support the definition of multiple languages via the URL #5

Open dsebastien opened 7 years ago

You MAY also support the definition of multiple languages just like with the Accept-Language header.

Design for this approach?

It can be done by adding a "lang=xx-XX" query parameter to the url. But I would not recommend this approach, using the Accept-Language in the header is the preferred way.

It could be added as an optional alternative. Can help for testing (simple url manipulation vs headers)
