React Native Language Hot Reload Demo

replace react-native-i18n with react-native-languages + i18next
(for loading language from server, and refresh UI after loaded)
(no need to update your App everytime it support a new language, just load language dynamically!)

Edit at 2018, March,4

This demo actually need a bit more work to make loading language from server work,
(in my case, I need load Russian langauge from my server)
right now it only work when you switch langauge in Android Setting, and then switch back to App.
I am just too lazy to write that "a bit more work", so you have to figure that out yourself.
Useful disscussion for this at here: AlexanderZaytsev/react-native-i18n#168

Using

• react-native-languages for detect langauge has change and run some code
• i18next
• React Native 0.48

How to run this demo

  git clone git@github.com:1c7/react-native-langauge-hot-reload-example.git
  cd react-native-langauge-hot-reload-example
  npm install
  react-native run-android

Why build this demo

I build a Android App using React Native 0.52

I been using react-native-i18n for awhile
(because it got a lot Github Star ⭐ and there are many article about react-native-i18n on Google)

But now I need to support Russian langauge
the App already support en(English), jp(Japaness), zh(Chinese), now it need Russian,
and I don't want everytime it support new langauge, I update the App, package the new version with

  cd android && ./gradlew assembleRelease

and update it on Google Play Store and all that, it just annoying.

When the App first start, it would send a http request, backend API would return JSON.
I can put language content inside that JSON to support new language.

So I ask around:
AlexanderZaytsev/react-native-i18n#68 (comment)
AlexanderZaytsev/react-native-i18n#168
(Thanks @zoontek and @jedrichards)

Then I wrote this demo, hope it help. it should save you some time.
