Localization in ASP.NET MVC AutoComplete Control

19 Dec 20222 minutes to read

The Localization library allows you to localize static text content of the noRecordsTemplate and actionFailureTemplate properties according to the culture currently assigned to the AutoComplete.

Locale key en-US (default)
noRecordsTemplate No Records Found
actionFailureTemplate The Request Failed

Loading translations

To load translation object to your application, use load function of the L10n class.

In the following sample, French culture is set to the AutoComplete and no data is loaded. Hence, the noRecordsTemplate property displays its text in French culture initially and if the sample is run offline, the actionFailureTemplate property displays its text appropriately.

@Html.EJS().AutoComplete("customers").Placeholder("Select a customer").PopupHeight("200px").Locale("fr-BE").DataSource(dataManger =>
            dataManger.Url("https://services.odata.org/V4/Northwind/Northwind.svc/").Adaptor("ODataV4Adaptor").CrossDomain(true)).Fields(new Syncfusion.EJ2.DropDowns.AutoCompleteFieldSettings
            {
                Value = "ContactName"
            }).Query("new ej.data.Query().from('Customers').select(['ContactName', 'CustomerID']).take(0)").Render()

<script>
    ej.base.L10n.load({
        'fr-BE': {
            'dropdowns': {
                'noRecordsTemplate': "Aucun enregistrement trouvé",
                'actionFailureTemplate': "Modèle d'échec d'action"
            }
        }
    });
</script>

namespace WebApplication1.Controllers
{
    public class AutoCompleteController : Controller
    {
        public ActionResult localization()
        {
            return View();
        }
    }
}
