Redirect when site-context active language changes #727

Open Platonn opened 5 years ago

Platonn commented 5 years ago

Many Customers have CMS content in many different languages. Currently, we support switching language of CMS content using the site-context language switcher

Customers should be also able to configure the additional behaviour of site-context switcher - if and where to redirect after language change:

  1. nowhere
  2. to other (sub)domain
  3. to other sub-route /en/, /de/

Cases to support

  1. 2 domains (de.mystore.com, en.mystore.com), routes internationalized (/produkt, /product), each domain shows content in its language, redirect to other domain on language change
  2. 2 domains (de.mystore.com, en.mystore.com), routes internationalized (/produkt, /product), two content languages per domain: DE & FR for de.mystore.com and EN & FR for en.mystore.com, redirect to other domain on language change (but what if FR is chosen?)
  3. 1 domain mystore.com, routes internationalized (/de/produkt, /en/product), each sub-route shows content in its language, redirect to other sub-route on language change
  4. 1 domain mystore.com, routes internationalized (/de/produkt, /en/product), 3 content languages: EN, DE, FR, don't redirect on language change
  5. The most complex: 2 domains (fr.mystore.com, mystore.com), routes internationalized (/produit in french domain; /de/produkt, /en/product in global domain), 4 content languages: FR for french domain; EN, DE, PL for global domain, redirect to other domain or other sub-route on language change conditionally (but what if PL is chosen?)

NOTE: This task should be started when #186 is done (the support of internationalized routes at one domain)

If the active language doesn't match any of the languages of the storefront, we should set the active language to the defaultLanguage of the store.

When navigating to a page in new language but in scope of the same Storefront's intance, it would be nice to:

Assigned 'future' label (post-1.0), because in 1.0 we won't support localizable routes.
