Method Details

canLocalize

default boolean canLocalize(Locale locale,
 String messageKey)

Checks if a message key can be localized in the given local

The default implementation invokes localize(Locale, String, Object...) and checks if the result is not null and does not start or end with a question mark (which indicates a missing localization in our convention).

Parameters:

locale - The locale to check.

messageKey - The message key to check.

Returns:

True if the message key can be localized, false otherwise.

localize

String localize(Locale locale,
 String messageKey,
 Object... parameters)

Localizes a message key in the given locale.

Parameters:

locale - The locale to localize the message in.

messageKey - The message key to localize.

parameters - Optional parameters to replace in the message.

Returns:

The localized message.
