How to add localization for cal extension in TYPO3

I'm using the TYPO3 7.6 version and "Cal" extension 1.11.1. I want to localize the Days text on the header of calendar but this didn't work, I have added all settings for the foreign language and this is working for news extension text "Read more", but this didn't run for the cal extension. How can I fix this?

I had the same problem recently. I've set the locale as Bernd wrote in his answer and this worked fine for EXT:news but not EXT:cal.

Here is my workaround:

Fluid Template:

<f:cObject typoscriptObjectPath="lib.formatDate" data="{f:format.date(format:'U', date:'@{event.start.time}')}" />

TypoScript:

lib.formatDate = TEXT
lib.formatDate {
  current = 1
  strftime = %B
}

Not very beautiful, but it works ;)

I'm not sure wether ext:cal is using it, but getting day- and month-names often is done by php accessing the system information. Therefore you need to have a proper locale definition matching the available locales on your system.

Get a list of available locals:

locale -a

Configuration example in typoscript setup:

config.language = de
// here an exact entry of command output above is needed:
config.locale_all = de_DE.utf8
config.htmlTag_langKey = de
