Overriding the default message bundle

To quickly provision your site for many different countries and languages, you can provide a message bundle for the SkyVault Share configuration. To do so, you need to wire in your own message bundle to Share that overrides Share’s default message bundle values.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 
   'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>

<beans>

   <bean id="webscripts.resources"   
         class="org.alfresco.i18n.ResourceBundleBootstrapComponent">

      <property name="resourceBundles">
         <list>
            <value>alfresco.messages.webscripts</value>
            <value>alfresco.messages.slingshot</value>
            <value>alfresco.web-extension.messages.kbsite</value>
         </list>
      </property>
   </bean>

</beans>

This Spring bean adds support for an additional message bundle called kbsite.properties located under web-extension/messages. In this message bundle, you might define the following key/value pairs:

page.kbSiteDashboard.title=Knowledge Base Site Dashboard
page.kbSiteDashboard.description=Knowledge Base site's dashboard page
title.kbSite=Knowledge Base Site

These are the same keys that the preset configuration and web script were looking for. You can now fully internationalize your new site preset. You can provide bundles so that the Create Site wizard works for languages such as Spanish or Mandarin Chinese.
