# `Lotus.Web.Locale`
[🔗](https://github.com/elixir-lotus/lotus_web/blob/v1.2.0/lib/lotus/web/locale.ex#L1)

`on_mount` hook that sets the dashboard locale.

`Lotus.Web.Router.lotus_dashboard/2` adds this hook to the live session
after the host's own `:on_mount` hooks, so a host never lists it. The hook
reads `"lotus_locale"` from the session and falls back to the configured
default locale. Write that key in a plug to choose the language:

    put_session(conn, :lotus_locale, "fr")

# `on_mount`
