Intro

dotnet JSON file based localization

Build

GetStarted

register required services:

services.AddJsonLocalization(options =>
    {
        options.ResourcesPath = Configuration.GetAppSetting("ResourcesPath");
        options.ResourcesPathType = ResourcesPathType.TypeBased; // by default, looking for resourceFile like Microsoft do
        // options.ResourcesPathType = ResourcesPathType.CultureBased; // looking for resource file in culture sub dir see details follows
    });

middleware config(the same with before):

app.UseRequestLocalization();

That's it~

Add your resource files

TypeBasedResourcePath

For Types:

Home/Index ⇒ Controllers/HomeController

the resource path looking for:

• Controllers/HomeController.[cultureName].json

for example:

• Resources/Controllers/HomeController.en.json
• Resources/Controllers/HomeController.zh.json

For RazorViews:

for example:

• Resources/Views/Home/Index.en.json
• Resources/Views/Home/Index.zh.json

CultureBasedResourcePath

For Types:

Home/Index ⇒ Controllers/HomeController

the resource path looking for:

• Resources/[cultureName]/Controllers/HomeController.json

for example:

• Resources/en/Controllers/HomeController.json
• Resources/zh/Controllers/HomeController.json

For RazorViews:

for example:

• Resources/en/Views/Home/Index.json
• Resources/zh/Views/Home/Index.json

Copy your resource files to output:

you had to set resource files copy to output to make it works normal

add the follows sample config to your startup project file:

<ItemGroup>
<Content Update="Resources\**\*.json">
    <CopyToOutputDirectory>Always</CopyToOutputDirectory>
</Content>
</ItemGroup>

the config above is made to make sure your json resource files in Resources dir copied to output, change it if you need

Use

just like what you do before:

Controller sample:

public class ValuesController : Controller
{
    private readonly IStringLocalizer<ValuesController> _localizer;

    public ValuesController(IStringLocalizer<ValuesController> localizer)
    {
        _localizer = localizer;
    }

    // GET: api/<controller>
    [HttpGet]
    public string Get()
    {
        return _localizer["Culture"];
    }
}

Razor View Sample:

@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Localization
@using Microsoft.Extensions.Localization
@using WeihanLi.Extensions.Localization.Json.Sample.Controllers
@inject IHtmlLocalizer<HomeController> HtmlLocalizer
@inject IStringLocalizer<HomeController> StringLocalizer
@inject IViewLocalizer ViewLocalizer
@{
    ViewData["Title"] = "Index";
}

<h2>Index</h2>

<div>string: @StringLocalizer["Hello"]</div>

<div>html: @HtmlLocalizer["Hello"]</div>

<div>view: @ViewLocalizer["Hello"]</div>

Resource file sample:

{
  "Culture": "English"
}
