Adam Monsen updated MIFOS-4746:
-------------------------------
Description:
h1. Intro
The current implementation of labels in Mifos [is broken|MIFOS-2989]. But
customers depend on the ability to override particular words in Mifos, like
"Center -> Kendra". These overrides can be specific to a locale or a particular
MFI.
If this spike is viable, we can then
* improve Mifos i18n by allowing proper & safe customization of particular
words and phrases
* speed up development since message lookups will be cleaner
* provide a simpler, improved ui allowing Mifos users to override any arbitrary
string
h1. Spike
# Hard code a list of substitutions. e.g.: "Center -> Kendra".
# Create something that intercepts (or replaces) whatever is done during Spring
message lookup.
# Make the interceptor use the list of substitutions to modify resolved
messages.
h2. Alternate idea
A servlet filter may also work, but this may be more tricky. For instance,
someone might specify the substitution "div -> pickle", which would break HTML.
h1. Not covered in this card
* doing the "final" solution
** ui for ui for customizing substitutions
** substitutions persisted (e.g.: in the db)
h2. Other ideas for later
* pick some arbitrary lower bound for substitution length. We don't want people
doing "a -> b"
* restrict substitution to particular messages
