The Localize Dynapp extension is designed to work with the DYNAPP platform developed by WIP. It allows users to place text from a JSON file to a messages.properties file for localization. This makes it easier to manage and update localized content in your DYNAPP applications.
Features
Currently the extension has the following features:
Command to place current selection in messages file, with user defined key
Highlight none localized strings and show a quick fix for placing them inside messages.properties
Show the localized value with annotation inline of your code:
Requirements
This extension requires Visual Studio Code to be installed. You can download it from the official website.
Extension Settings
This extension contributes the following settings:
dynapp-localization.defaultlanguage: This is the default language extension to use, like 'en', 'sv' or other. Leave blank for messages.properties.
dynapp-localization.dataitempath: This is the folder of dynapp data items relative to project root. The default path is /data-items/.
dynapp-localization.annotationcolor: This is the color of the text that is placed after localized variables. The default color is rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5).
Possible improvements
Automatically find Data item path based on dynappconfig.json file
Currently we dont check if the variable already exists in the messages file. so instead of just adding it should notify the user and force a new key.
Add the ability to edit the value directly from the inline notification
