I18nextProvider

Edit on GitHub

The provider is responsible to pass the i18next instance down to all the translate hocs using react context. Alternatively you can pass that directly in the translate hoc.
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { I18nextProvider } from 'react-i18next';
​
import App from './App'; // your entry page
import i18n from './i18n'; // initialized i18next instance
​
ReactDOM.render(
  <I18nextProvider i18n={ i18n }>
    <App />
  </I18nextProvider>,
  document.getElementById('app')
);
For the i18n instance have a look at the i18n page.
The i18nextProvider can use some props it gets passed:
options
default
description
i18n
undefined
pass i18next instance the provider will pass it down to translation components by context
initialI18nStore
undefined
pass in initial translations (useful for serverside rendering)
initialLanguage
undefined
pass in initial language (useful for serverside rendering)
