I have a language dropdown in my layout component which user selects
to switch desired locale. Upon switching, locale is changed without
affecting the URL and without storing it in the cookie. The locale is
stored in the session. I created the following filter which I then
contributed:
public class LocaleHttpServletRequestFilter implements
HttpServletRequestFilter {
private Logger log;
public LocaleHttpServletRequestFilter(Logger aLogger) {
log = aLogger;
}
public boolean service(
HttpServletRequest aRequest,
HttpServletResponse aResponse,
HttpServletRequestHandler aHandler) throws IOException {
HttpSession session = aRequest.getSession();
HttpServletRequest request = null;
String locale = null;
if(session != null) {
locale = (String)session.getAttribute("YOUR ATTRIBUTE
ID");
}
if(locale != null) {
log.debug("FORCED: " + locale);
request =
new LocaleHttpServletRequestWrapper(aRequest,
new Locale(locale));
}
else {
request = aRequest;
}
return aHandler.service(request, aResponse);
}
}
For this to work, you must store your language selection in the
session. Unfortunately, you must use T 5.2 and @SessionAttribute
annotation because otherwise session ID will be page specific and not
work as intented.
Here is my Layout:
public class Layout {
@Inject
private Messages messages;
@InjectService("_LocaleList")
private List<SupportedLocale> supportedLocales;
@Persist
private String language;
@Inject
private PersistentLocale persistentLocale;
@Inject
private Logger log;
public Map<String, String> getLanguagesModel() {
Map<String, String> languages = null;
if(supportedLocales.size() > 0) {
languages = new LinkedHashMap<String, String>();
for(SupportedLocale locale : supportedLocales) {
if(locale.isPartOfDropDown()) {
String code = locale.getLocaleCode();
languages.put(code,
messages.get("language-" + code));
}
}
}
return languages;
}
@SetupRender
void initialize() {
String lang = null;
if(persistentLocale != null) {
Locale locale = persistentLocale.get();
if(locale != null) {
lang = locale.getLanguage();
setLanguage(lang);
}
}
log.debug("language: " + lang);
}
public void setLanguage(String aLanguage) {
if(log.isDebugEnabled()) log.debug(aLanguage);
language = aLanguage.toLowerCase();
persistentLocale.set(new Locale(language));
}
public String getLanguage() {
return language;
}
}
