This commit introduces comprehensive localization support for the application, enabling dynamic language switching and localized UI elements. Key changes include:
- Added `.resx` files for German (de-DE), English (en-US), and French (fr-FR).
- Updated Razor components to use `IStringLocalizer` for dynamic string localization.
- Introduced the `L(string key, string fallback)` helper method for consistent localized string retrieval with fallback support.
- Implemented dynamic culture initialization in `Program.cs` via an API call to `/api/Localization/lang`.
- Localized error pages, grid columns, tabs, popups, validation messages, and tooltips.
- Dynamically generated privacy policy links based on the current culture.
- Improved user experience with fully localized loading states, error handling, and UI labels.
These changes enhance accessibility and usability, making the application more user-friendly for a global audience.
Introduced a `LanguageControls` component for switching between
languages (`de-DE`, `en-US`, `fr-FR`) and integrated a new
`LocalizationService` to manage language preferences. Updated
`LocalizationController` to handle language persistence via
cookies and support multiple cultures. Enhanced the footer
layout to include the language selector alongside theme
controls.
Added `flag-icons` library for displaying country flags and
configured request localization in `Program.cs`. Styled the
language selector dropdown and improved sender page visuals
with updated CSS. Defaulted language handling to `de-DE` for
fallback scenarios. Cleaned up redundant code in
`LocalizationController`.
Introduce ThemeService to manage themes and dark mode state,
including initialization, persistence, and server sync.
Add UserPreferencesService to handle API communication for
retrieving and saving user preferences with in-memory caching
to reduce network overhead.
Register both services in the DI container in Program.cs.
Enhance ThemeService with detailed documentation and introduce
ThemeOption record for selectable themes. Improve server-side
caching in UserPreferencesService for consistency and efficiency.
Simplified `DocReceiverElementService` and `EnvelopeService` by removing the `ApiOptions` dependency. Updated constructors to eliminate the `IOptions<ApiOptions>` parameter and switched to using relative URLs directly for API requests.
Removed unused `BaseUrl` and `UsePredefinedReports` properties from `ApiOptions`. Cleaned up redundant fields, constructor logic, and unused `using` directives in affected services.
Registered `EnvelopeService` in `Program.cs` with `AddScoped`. These changes improve maintainability, reduce configuration overhead, and make the services more self-contained.
Updated HttpClient setup to use named clients for API calls
and DevExpress components, improving resource management
and scalability. Scoped a default HttpClient for PdfViewer
requirements. Removed ApiOptions configuration binding for
simplification. Updated FontLoader to use IHttpClientFactory
to align with modern best practices.
Renamed namespaces and related identifiers from EnvelopeGenerator.WebUI
to EnvelopeGenerator.Server across the project. This change affects
data models, services, controllers, and configuration files to ensure
consistency with the new architecture.
Updated @using directives in Razor components and other files to
reflect the new namespace structure. Adjusted project references in
EnvelopeGenerator.Server.csproj to point to the new
EnvelopeGenerator.Server.Client project.
Modified middleware and logging configurations to use the new
EnvelopeGenerator.Server namespace, including changes in Program.cs
and appsettings.json.
Updated resource and file references to use the new
EnvelopeGenerator.Server path, ensuring correct resource loading.
Adjusted configuration options in Program.cs to use the new namespace
for options classes, such as ApiOptions and PdfViewerOptions.
Updated authentication scheme names and related constants to align
with the new namespace structure.
Revised comments and documentation to reflect the new namespace,
ensuring clarity and consistency in the codebase.
Replaced "EnvelopeGenerator.WebUI" with "EnvelopeGenerator.Server" and "EnvelopeGenerator.WebUI.Client" with "EnvelopeGenerator.Server.Client". Updated project entries, solution configuration platforms, and nested projects to reflect these changes.
