l10n Module

Helper classes for client side localization.

class vmware.vapi.stdlib.client.l10n.MessageLocalizer(bundle, formatter=<class 'vmware.vapi.l10n.formatter.StringFormatter'>)

Bases: object

Helper class to localize vAPI LocalizableMessages.

Before initializating the MessageLocalizer, locale has to be explicitly set if the user wants a locale other than English (U.S.).

Typically, at the start of the application, the following two lines are required to set the locale.

import locale locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,<locale_type>)

If the locale_type is empty string, locale is set to user’s default setting (typically specified in the LANG environment variable). Otherwise, the specified locale type has to be installed in the system.

Initialize MessageLocalizer

Parameters:

• bundle (vmware.vapi.message.MessageBundle) – Message bundle to retrieve the templates for the messages
• formatter (vmware.vapi.message.MessageFormatter) – Message formatter to format the messages

localize(msg)

Localize a given LocalizableMessage.

Parameters:msg (com.vmware.vapi.std_client.LocalizableMessage) – LocalizableMessage Return type:str Returns:Localized string
