Localization in Blazor Server - How To Change Languages and Cultures

Рет қаралды 36,233

Күн бұрын

Blazor Server is an excellent choice for a web application. But unless your audience only speaks one language, you probably need to consider localization. Localization is the ability to present an application in the culture of the user. This is more than just about translating text. Different cultures have different currencies, different ways of representing numbers, different date formats, and more. In this video, we are going to apply localization to a Blazor Server app in a way that will present the user with the site in their culture, but also give them the option of changing the culture of the site.

@@IAmTimCorey I'm very much interested in a tutorial where Identity Server is used as an API and not directly included in the blazor ui as you see in most examples or tutorials. In my setup my UI talks to my API to load data. So only my API talks to the dbcontext (seperate project). But to include Identity Server in my UI I had to add a reference to the dbcontext directly and i don't like it that way. It should also pass via the API.

@Baby4Ghost 3 жыл бұрын

@@marcusmaunula5018 The main difference is the Startup, in WASM there isnt any by default so you wire it up in the Program.cs. I also use localStorage throu IJSRuntime. The way I did it, is using the IJSRuntime to set an localStorage value with a razor component: CultureSelector.razor (same way as in video, from the appsettings.json), and in Program.cs set the CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentCulture and CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentUICulture using IJSRuntime to get the culture from localStorage. Thats it. Now you can use the resource files just like in the video. As for the resource keys I recommend using nested static classes with const string properties avoiding magic string. I can create an github project to showcase it if you like?

Blazor has a built in tool for sharing state across any hierarchy in the components. You will see that the authentication state in the individual accounts template uses it to share auth state to the entire sample app. Alternatively for a more redux-like experience, there's fluxor.

I have a question about another topic. When you are using sqlconnections with aspnet core, its better to use the using keyword for each query or its better to use the same connection along the request? I mean, for example if you have to authenticate the user with a token and then you need to do some query, its better to use the same connection or use a new one?

@Baby4Ghost 3 жыл бұрын

Use the same connection. No need for a new connection, always try to use the connection you already have because more connections means more resources used. An new connection is viable when you use an different connectionstring (maybe admin account), but as long as the connection doesnt need change, reuse the existing connection as much as possible.

@IAmTimCorey 3 жыл бұрын

Unless the calls are sequential, I highly recommend creating a new connection each time. The computer has connection pooling which will help you out automatically. Creating one connection and leaving it open is a BAD idea. In doing so, you hold up resources on your SQL Server instead of releasing them for other applications to use. You also risk keeping them open indefinitely if your application crashes. That can bog a server down and eventually crash it.

Use an short descriptive key: product_description_specs | home_intro_text Furthermore, I use a static class with constant string properties to match the keys and use the static class in my code. resource file: Resources/Pages/Index.en.resx key: product_description_specs nested static class, const string: ResourceNames.Pages.Index.PRODUCT_DESCRIPTION_SPECS = "product_description_specs" usage: @inject IStringLocalizer LocalLoc @LocalLoc[ResourceNames.Pages.Index.PRODUCT_DESCRIPTION_SPECS]

When I add the @bind to the select tag, it shows an error which I cannot figure out what exactly it is :/ I`m binding exactly like you in [47:48]. The error is the following: Cannot resolve method Create(ChooseLanguage, string) candidates are: Microsoft.AspNet.Core.Components.EventCallback Create(Object, EventCallback) Any ideas why is this been thrown? :)

Did you name your method "Create"? It sounds like there are two "Create" methods now and C# doesn't know which one to pick. If you did, rename your method to be "CreateItem" or something similar in order to remove the conflict.

There is a bit of a sloppy "mistake" in here. If you open the dropdown and instead choosing a language you click on select... and then click change the application crashes. Would have been nice to prevent this.

You can just assign the option value to an empty value. Here is the example : It will never get changes.

Hello I am working on the project that I need to use multiple language and then I want to set default culture. Everything is working fine and I can change the language, it works but I couldn't set default culture. Project is starting with default English language, even though I changed it to Russian language. Thank you. var supportedCultures = new[] { "en-US", "uz-UZ", "uz-Cyrl", "ru-RU" }; var localizationOptions = new RequestLocalizationOptions() .SetDefaultCulture(supportedCultures[3]) .AddSupportedCultures(supportedCultures) .AddSupportedUICultures(supportedCultures);

Not sure what I did wrong, I can get the culture to work, but not the actual translation of the elements.

@@IAmTimCorey Something unrelated/related to this, since you've mentioned that we can implement MVC from the older ASP.NET Framework, that means we can use it to create registration/login/logout pages without the built-in Identity framework. So I can do the same thing (login/register controller) here in the Blazor Server app? Would love to have some additional pointers! Thank you.

Sad you did not include SUPER IMPORTANT steps... How to put variable in translation? How to use counts?? in many languages, almost all, numbers have different endings in words..not to mention that words have sex.

@IAmTimCorey 3 жыл бұрын

It depends on what you mean by putting a variable in a translation. You can't put a variable in and have it translated in some way. Translation files are static. So if you have a variable, that's the value it will be. You can put that variable into the translation using the curly braces but that is going to put the same value in that spot regardless of which language is being displayed. As for words having sex, again, the system isn't doing any translating. You are. So you can put the right sex in the translation for a given language.

Thanks for covering this topic. However, I find it weird that you explain every little detail. I'd rather say that this video is for those, who have at least 3 months of experience or something like that instead of explaining what a dictionary is in a video for developing C# webapps.

I try to reduce assumptions. You may know about Dictionaries but someone else might not. They might know about the _imports file and you might not. If I assume too much, I make it difficult for people to learn.

Hi Tim, My local culture is English (India). I get that using CultureInfo.CurrentCulture. However when the app is published to Azure, the Current Culture returned is English (United States). I suppose the CurrentCulture returns the azure server culture instead of the client. I just tried what you have have in the code. (System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture), this one returns English (United States) in both my dev and on published site. Can you suggest how to get current culture of the client after the app is published. Thanks.
