days names and localization

[Andrea Borruso]

Hi all,

the days name are by default in English (mon, sat, fri, etc.).

Is it possible to set another locale for visualization of months and days names?

Thank you

[Dominik Moritz]

Yes, you can set the locale: https://vega.github.io/vega/docs/api/locale/. I think right now you can't set the locale from the spec itself.

I think it's necessary to add that I need to find a way to use it in vega-lite.

I do not find locale settings in it. Am I missing something?

And thank you very much Dominik

Since Vega-Lite compiles to Vega, you can set the locale on Vega and it will work for Vega-Lite as well. Does that make sense?

Hi Dominik,

these are my first steps (below my fist result), and this is an incredible tool.

I'm using vega-lite in a simple webpage, adding

```html

  <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vega@5"></script>
  <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vega-lite@4"></script>
  <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vega-embed@6"></script>

```

Then I do not have Vega in my PC. Do I must install it and compile a localized version of   Vega-Lite?

I know probably I do not have understood anything and this is stupid question :)

Thank you

Here is an example with Vega-Embed: https://bl.ocks.org/domoritz/29eab69c5d0cf9e8a4abce4fa54dcc94/0b7e39f449e1deed69491a120e31917a1f5fa447
