It's good idea centralizing Internationalization in a single class package for all OpenKM extensions.


For example if you want to internationalization to english and spanish you migh create two classes Lang_en_GB.java and Lang_es_ES.java


package com.openkm.extension.frontend.client.lang;

import java.util.HashMap;

public class Lang_en_GB {
	
	public final static HashMap<String, String> lang;
	  static {
	    lang = new HashMap<String, String>();
	    
	    // Download button
	    lang.put("download.button.tittle", "Download document");
	    
}


package com.openkm.extension.frontend.client.lang;

import java.util.HashMap;

public class Lang_es_ES {
	
	public final static HashMap<String, String> lang;
	  static {
	    lang = new HashMap<String, String>();
	    
	    // Download button
	    lang.put("download.button.tittle", "Descargar documento");
	    
	    // Download pdf button
	    lang.put("download.pdf.button.tittle", "Descargar documento como pdf");
	  }
}


package com.openkm.extension.frontend.client.lang;

import java.util.HashMap;

public class Lang {
	// Languages
	public static final String LANG_es_ES = "es-ES"; 
	public static final String LANG_en_GB = "en-GB";
	
	public static HashMap<String, String> getLang(String lang) {
		HashMap<String, String> hLang = new HashMap<String, String>();
		
		if (LANG_es_ES.equalsIgnoreCase(lang) || LANG_es_ES.substring(0, 2).equalsIgnoreCase(lang.substring(0, 2)))  {
			hLang = Lang_es_ES.lang;
		} else if (LANG_en_GB.equalsIgnoreCase(lang) || LANG_en_GB.substring(0, 2).equalsIgnoreCase(lang.substring(0, 2)))  {
			hLang = Lang_en_GB.lang;
		} else {
			hLang = Lang_en_GB.lang;
		}
		
		return hLang;
	}
}
