MvcLocalization

Allow Mvc to render Views/Pages according to the language declared in request url or in HTTP header.

Usage

1. Configure the default language and supported languages in Startup.
2. Let your controller be the subclass of CultureMatchingController, and let your page model be the subclass of CultureMatchingPageModel.
3. Copy your views or pages, add language name before the extension, and localize the content.

LocalizationTest provides samples about the usage detail.

Matching rule

Take zh-CN for example:

First, the program will check if an exact match of the required culture exists. If there is a view named $View$.zh-CN.cshtml, this file would be rendered.

Then, if such a match does not exist, the program will check if $View.zh.cshtml$ exists.

If the match failed again, the program will take the default language and try to match view files following the two steps described above.

If the match using default language failed, the $View$.cshtml will be used.
