An example of DB-based Localization in ASP.NET Core, using custom providers through the AspNet5Localization package.
The project targets .NET Core RC2, and was built on Visual Studio 2015 Update 2.
If you examine project.json you'll find that we've installed the Localization.SqlLocalizer package:
{
"dependencies": {
"Localization.SqlLocalizer": "1.0.1",
}
}
We've also installed EF Core and EF Tools packages for Entity Framework and CLI Commands.
Under the Migrations folder you'll find a migration named add_sql_localizer which creates the LocalizationRecords table. Fire up your console at the root of the project (where project.json lives) and do:
dotnet ef migrations add Localization --context localizationModelContext
dotnet ef database update Localization --context localizationModelContext
If all goes well, you're all set. Configuring localization services is documented at AspNet5Localization repo. You can find a more detailed explanation on Damien's blog.
