Our.Umbraco.DictionaryLocalizerPackage

This package adds Umbraco-dictionary based localisation e. g. models DataAnnotations.

Just prefix the name or error message with: #

using Our.Umbraco.DictionaryLocalizer.Models;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;

public class MyModel : DictionaryDataAnnotationBaseModel
{
  [Dislpay(Name = "#nameLabel")]
  [Required(ErrorMessage = "#nameRequired")]
  public string Name { get; set; }  
  
  [Dislpay(Name = "#emailLabel")]
  [EmailAddress(ErrorMessage = "#emailInvalid")]
  [Required(ErrorMessage = "#emailRequired")]
  public string Email { get; set; }
  
  ...
}

In Back-Office section Translations add items: nameLabel, emailLabel, nameRequired, emailInvalid etc.

Demo Website

You find a project Umbraco13.Website (version 13.9.2) showing a simple form in two languages. Open solution OurDictionaryLocalizerWebiste.sln, select one .Website and run Debug command. The interesting part is in Models\ContactFormModel.cs.

When you follow the unattended install as it is configured in appsettings.json, the package will be installed automatically.

Back-Office login: admin@example.com and 1234567890

After installition go to settings section open uSync dasboard and install all.

Runtime optimization

You can inherit your models from Our.Umbraco.DictionaryLocalizer.Models.DictionaryDataAnnotationBaseModel and add the following to the appSettings.json:

"DictionaryLocalization": {
  "DataAnnotationOnly": true
}

Now Our.Umbraco.DictionaryLocalizerPackage is only registered or invoked for these model classes. This might also help mitigating conflicts too.
