add another language to dspace

to add another language to dspace follow these steps :

if you using JSPUI

webui.supported.locales = ar, en

and you can set the default language 

default.locale = ar

now add you language  messages file to you dspace in the path

dspace-source/dspace-api/src/main/resources/

before start instalation and name the file like this

Messages_ar.properties

 =================================================

if you are using XMLUI 

add you language to dspace.cfg file 

xmlui.supported.locales = ar, en

and your langauge file 

messages_ar.xml

to the path 

dspace\webapps\xmlui\i18n

 

and now you add language switch html code to your theme file in the theme folder 

dspace\webapps\xmlui\themes

for example : if you use mirage theme add it in the file 

dspace\webapps\xmlui\themes\Mirage\lib\xsl\core\page-structure.xsl

any where you want 

like this

 <div style=”margin-right:300px;direction:rtl”> language :: <a href=”/xmlui?locale-attribute=ar”> Arabic</a> | <a href=”/xmlui?locale-attribute=en”> English </a> </div>
