# Hybrid Localization |
|||
|
|||
Hybrid localization lets you combine **backend localizations** (from the ABP server) with **UI localizations** (JSON files in your Angular app). UI values take priority over backend values for the same key, so you can override or extend server-side texts without changing the backend. |
|||
|
|||
## How It Works |
|||
|
|||
- **Backend localizations**: Loaded from the server (e.g. `ApplicationLocalizationResourceDto`). Keys use the format `ResourceName::Key`. |
|||
- **UI localizations**: Loaded from static JSON files under your app's assets (e.g. `/assets/localization/en.json`). The same key format `ResourceName::Key` is used. |
|||
- **Priority**: When a key exists in both backend and UI, the **UI value is used** (UI overrides backend). |
|||
|
|||
The existing `abpLocalization` pipe and localization APIs work unchanged; they resolve keys from the merged set (backend + UI), with UI winning on conflicts. |
|||
|
|||
## Configuration |
|||
|
|||
Enable hybrid localization in your app config via `provideAbpCore` and `withOptions`: |
|||
|
|||
```typescript |
|||
// app.config.ts |
|||
import { provideAbpCore, withOptions } from '@abp/ng.core'; |
|||
|
|||
export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = { |
|||
providers: [ |
|||
provideAbpCore( |
|||
withOptions({ |
|||
// ...other options |
|||
uiLocalization: { |
|||
enabled: true, |
|||
basePath: '/assets/localization', // optional; default is '/assets/localization' |
|||
}, |
|||
}), |
|||
), |
|||
// ... |
|||
], |
|||
}; |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
| Option | Description | Default | |
|||
|-----------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------| |
|||
| `enabled` | Turn on UI localization loading from `{basePath}/{culture}.json`. | — | |
|||
| `basePath`| Base path for JSON files. Files are loaded from `{basePath}/{culture}.json`. | `'/assets/localization'`| |
|||
|
|||
When `enabled` is `true`, the app loads a JSON file for the current language (e.g. `en`, `tr`) whenever the user changes language. Loaded data is merged with backend localizations (UI overrides backend for the same key). |
|||
|
|||
## UI Localization File Format |
|||
|
|||
Place one JSON file per culture under your `basePath`. File name must be `{culture}.json` (e.g. `en.json`, `tr.json`). |
|||
|
|||
Structure: **resource name → key → value**. |
|||
|
|||
```json |
|||
{ |
|||
"MyProjectName": { |
|||
"Welcome": "Welcome from UI (en.json)", |
|||
"CustomKey": "This is a UI-only localization", |
|||
"TestMessage": "UI localization is working!" |
|||
}, |
|||
"AbpAccount": { |
|||
"Login": "Sign In (UI Override)" |
|||
} |
|||
} |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
- Top-level keys are **resource names** (e.g. `MyProjectName`, `AbpAccount`). |
|||
- Nested keys are **localization keys**; values are the display strings for that culture. |
|||
|
|||
In templates you keep using the same key format: `ResourceName::Key`. |
|||
|
|||
## Using in Templates |
|||
|
|||
Use the `abpLocalization` pipe as usual. Keys can come from backend only, UI only, or both (UI wins): |
|||
|
|||
```html |
|||
<!-- Backend (if available) or UI --> |
|||
<p>{{ 'MyProjectName::Welcome' | abpLocalization }}</p> |
|||
|
|||
<!-- UI-only key (from /assets/localization/{{ culture }}.json) --> |
|||
<p>{{ 'MyProjectName::CustomKey' | abpLocalization }}</p> |
|||
|
|||
<!-- Backend key overridden by UI --> |
|||
<p>{{ 'AbpAccount::Login' | abpLocalization }}</p> |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
No template changes are needed; only the configuration and the JSON files. |
|||
|
|||
## UILocalizationService |
|||
|
|||
The `UILocalizationService` (`@abp/ng.core`) manages UI localizations and merges them with backend data. |
|||
|
|||
### Get loaded UI data |
|||
|
|||
To inspect what was loaded from the UI JSON files (e.g. for debugging or display): |
|||
|
|||
```typescript |
|||
import { UILocalizationService, SessionStateService } from '@abp/ng.core'; |
|||
|
|||
export class MyComponent { |
|||
private uiLocalizationService = inject(UILocalizationService); |
|||
private sessionState = inject(SessionStateService); |
|||
|
|||
currentLanguage$ = this.sessionState.getLanguage$(); |
|||
|
|||
ngOnInit() { |
|||
// All loaded UI resources for current language |
|||
const loaded = this.uiLocalizationService.getLoadedLocalizations(); |
|||
// Or for a specific culture |
|||
const loadedEn = this.uiLocalizationService.getLoadedLocalizations('en'); |
|||
} |
|||
} |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
`getLoadedLocalizations(culture?: string)` returns an object of the form `{ [resourceName: string]: Record<string, string> }` for the given culture (or current language if omitted). |
|||
|
|||
### Add translations at runtime |
|||
|
|||
You can also add or merge UI translations programmatically (e.g. from another source or lazy-loaded module): |
|||
|
|||
```typescript |
|||
this.uiLocalizationService.addAngularLocalizeLocalization( |
|||
'en', // culture |
|||
'MyProjectName', // resource name |
|||
{ MyKey: 'My value' }, // key-value map |
|||
); |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
This merges into the existing UI localizations and is taken into account by the `abpLocalization` pipe with the same UI-over-backend priority. |
|||
|
|||
## Example: Dev App |
|||
|
|||
The ABP dev app demonstrates hybrid localization: |
|||
|
|||
1. **Config** (`app.config.ts`): |
|||
|
|||
```typescript |
|||
uiLocalization: { |
|||
enabled: true, |
|||
basePath: '/assets/localization', |
|||
}, |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
2. **Files**: `src/assets/localization/en.json` and `src/assets/localization/tr.json` with the structure shown above. |
|||
|
|||
3. **Component** (`localization-test.component.ts`): Uses `abpLocalization` for backend keys, UI-only keys, and overrides; and uses `UILocalizationService.getLoadedLocalizations()` to show loaded UI data. |
|||
|
|||
See `apps/dev-app/src/app/localization-test/localization-test.component.ts` and `apps/dev-app/src/assets/localization/*.json` in the repository for the full example. |
|||
|
|||
## Summary |
|||
|
|||
| Topic | Description | |
|||
|------------------|-------------| |
|||
| **Purpose** | Combine backend and UI localizations; UI overrides backend for the same key. | |
|||
| **Config** | `provideAbpCore(withOptions({ uiLocalization: { enabled: true, basePath?: string } }))`. | |
|||
| **File location**| `{basePath}/{culture}.json` (e.g. `/assets/localization/en.json`). | |
|||
| **JSON format** | `{ "ResourceName": { "Key": "Value", ... }, ... }`. | |
|||
| **Template usage** | Same as before: `{{ 'ResourceName::Key' \| abpLocalization }}`. | |
|||
| **API** | `UILocalizationService`: `getLoadedLocalizations(culture?)`, `addAngularLocalizeLocalization(culture, resourceName, translations)`. | |
