You can define a default language with this module. The default of the default language is en. You can change it with:

language.setDefault('de'); // The default Language is now `de`

language.getDefault(); // Returns `de`

Check an array with languagecodes

With this method you can validate an array with languagecodes and texts:

Example:

const array = [
  { languagecode: 'en', text: 'Foo' },
  { languagecode: 'de', text: 'Bar' }
];


language.validateArray(array);

Validation Process:

If a languagecode is not valid, the method will throw an error. Otherwise the method will return the complete object.

Why the method will return the complete called object?

In the validation process the method check all languagecodes. If the languagecode are valid, the method maps the languagecode by the languagetable of this module (language.getLanguage('en').code). So you can ensure that the code is in the correct digits.
