    • Method Detail

      • 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.

        messageKey - The message key to localize.
        parameters - Optional parameters to replace in the message.
