Liferay 7 - How to load separated Language module for Web module

[The Big，修改在7 年前。]

Dear everyone,

Here is the structure of my application:

my-application/
         my-application-web/
         my-admin-application-web/
         my-content-application-web/
         my-application-language/
         my-application-api/
         my-application-service/

In the Web module(my-application-web, my-admin-application-web, my-content-application-web), I want to load the resource bundle(Language properties) from the my-application-language.
I've been following this tutorial Localizing Your Application.
In the Web module/build.gradle file, I've imported the language module:

dependencies {
	compile project(':modules:my-application:my-application-language')
}

In the component of each Web module portlet, I have defined property "javax.portlet.resource-bundle=content.Language":

@Component(
	immediate = true,
	property = {
		"com.liferay.portlet.display-category=category.sample",
		"com.liferay.portlet.instanceable=true",
		"javax.portlet.display-name=my-admin-application-web Portlet",
		"javax.portlet.init-param.template-path=/",
		"javax.portlet.init-param.view-template=/view.jsp",
		"javax.portlet.resource-bundle=content.Language",
		"javax.portlet.security-role-ref=power-user,user"
	},
	service = Portlet.class
)
public class MyAdminApplicationWebmvcportletPortlet extends MVCPortlet {
}

But it did not work The Web module still load resource language properties inside itself(not my-application-language).

In my Web module, how to load the resource bundle(Language properties) from the my-application-language?

Best Regards.

You may need to use a Resource Bundle to get it working properly. Take a look at this blade sample for creating one: https://github.com/liferay/liferay-blade-samples/tree/master/liferay-gradle/blade.hook.resourcebundle

Hope that helps!

Dear Jamie,
Thanks for your reply.

I tried created a Resource Bundle.

package com.sample.hook.resourcebundle;

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.AggregateResourceBundleLoader;
import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.CacheResourceBundleLoader;
import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.ClassResourceBundleLoader;
import com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.ResourceBundleLoader;

import java.util.ResourceBundle;

import org.osgi.service.component.annotations.Component;
import org.osgi.service.component.annotations.Reference;

@Component(
	immediate = true,
    property = {
            "bundle.symbolic.name=my.admin.application.web",
            "resource.bundle.base.name=content.Language",
            "servlet.context.name=my-admin-application-web"
    }
)
public class MyResourceBundleLoader implements ResourceBundleLoader{

	@Override
	public ResourceBundle loadResourceBundle(String languageId) {
		return _resourceBundleLoader.loadResourceBundle(languageId);
	}
	
	@Reference(target = "(bundle.symbolic.name=my.admin.application.web)")
	public void setResourceBundleLoader(ResourceBundleLoader resourceBundleLoader) {
		_resourceBundleLoader = new AggregateResourceBundleLoader(
				new CacheResourceBundleLoader(
						new ClassResourceBundleLoader("content.Language", MyResourceBundleLoader.class.getClassLoader())),
						resourceBundleLoader);
	}
	
	private AggregateResourceBundleLoader _resourceBundleLoader;
}

In the block code above:

	@Reference(target = "(bundle.symbolic.name=my.admin.application.web)")

The Resource Bundle target to only one module my.admin.application.web
Now I want to working with multiple modules. Following this guide Localizing Your Application(not overriding language properties).
But this guide is not clear. It's not working.

Please help me. Any support from everyone is great.

Thanks.

Hi Guys ,

Is this feature working in Liferay DXP ?
i.e Loading separate language module for web modules

[David H Nebinger，修改在7 年前。]

I couldn't get it to work myself.

I noticed that DXP tends to use the lang-merge gradle task, so I don't know that they actually have it working either.

You might try opening a LESA ticket to see if Liferay has it working...

Hi all,

A full year has passed. Anyone knows if this is working by now?

I'm starting a project on 7.0-ga5 that needs to have interchangeable form labels for the same language. I think the creation of a common lang module would be perfect for this use case, since it would allow me to change the interface labels just by installing a different bundle providing the same capability.

I tried to follow the tutorial in this article but it's not working. I'd like to understand if it's my fault or if this is still not implemented.

TIA

Fernando
