Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, the translate requires a language field to work.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great to be able to 1) define a simple string in the settings if one language is only ever used 2) an async function incase the language code comes from elsewhere 3) languageField can be a reference value (like previews) as the language could be a document itself.
e.g.
assist({
translate: {
document: {
// basic, easy setting for ALL documents using one language
language: 'fr',
documentTypes: ['newsArticle', 'page']
}
}
})
assist({
translate: {
document: {
// fetch the language from somewhere
language: async () => client.fetch(/* LANGUAGE QUERY */),
documentTypes: ['newsArticle', 'page']
}
}
})
assist({
translate: {
document: {
// myReferenceField is a document with a language field set on it
languageField: 'myReferenceField.language',
documentTypes: ['newsArticle', 'page']
}
}
})
Describe alternatives you've considered
I have considered adding a hidden field, but we want the language value set outside the individual documents
