How to use with DataAnnotation? about my.extensions.localization.json

[hishamco]

Localization should come first, so anything after should be aware of the localization APIs, hope the sample is working with you

[hishamco]

I think it will not make difference either Web API, MVC or Razor Pages

[hishamco]

It works with me with two changes ;)

services.AddJsonLocalization(opt => opt.ResourcesPath = "Resources");

services.AddControllers()
    .AddDataAnnotationsLocalization(options =>
    {
        options.DataAnnotationLocalizerProvider = (type, factory) =>
            factory.Create(typeof(Validation));
    });

Ok, no worry I will have a look or provide a sample in the repo soon

[hishamco]

@HamedFathi you could try my PR #59, I added a data annotation support to the MVC sample it should work with other applications type too

[hishamco]

At the first glance no need to provide a full path for the resources folder, just make it "Resources" if it not working I will check your repo on my laptop and see what's going on

[hishamco]

Of course it's possible, I remembered this had been triggered by @Muhammad-Altabba long time ago in #9, you could have a look to #2 for more information

Please let me know if you face any issue, it should work as it works in ResourceManager

[HamedFathi]

Honestly, I tried but failed and built a repository. Can anyone help me?

JsonResource (Web API not MVC)

@hishamco

Thank you so much, Although I tried to simulate your approach in my JsonResource sample it failed!

I still do not understand what I have set wrong.
Anyway, thank you.

[hishamco]

Is your sample using the JsonStringLocalizer or your own localizer?

[HamedFathi]

@hishamco

IStringLocalizer<> here

[hishamco]

I mean you didn't use JSON?

[hishamco]

The line you point to will localize the strings that will be used by the controller not the data annotations

[HamedFathi]

I had checked your tip before. Does not work.

No pressure, It would be great if you have time to check my repository. Definitely I make a mistake.

Thanks in advance.

[hishamco]

My tip is necessary before you go further, I will have a look once I have a time

[HamedFathi]

@hishamco I did not know their order is important!

Thank you so much
