Localization

[Skeferstat]

Hi, can I use a localized text in the decription attribute from spectre.cli?

public class Settings : CommandSettings
{
[CommandOption("-n|--name ")]
[Description("The person or thing to greet.")] <---- [Description(Localization.MyText)]
[DefaultValue("World")]
public string Name { get; set; }
}
Thanks for the answer!

Hi,

Attributes only support constant values. But you can workaround this limitation like this:

internal sealed class LocalizedDescriptionAttribute : DescriptionAttribute
{
   public string Key { get; }

   public LocalizedDescriptionAttribute(string key) :
      base(SRCli.ResourceManager.GetString(key) ?? throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException(nameof(key)))
   {
      Key = key;
   }
}

internal sealed class ConfigureCommandSettings : CommandSettings
{
    [CommandOption("--name")]
    [LocalizedDescription(nameof(SRCli.NameOption))]
    public string? Name { get; init; }
}

Hope this helps.
