xml files not being saved in LocalizationResources folder

[julianadormon]

@LazZiya Sorry I'm not sure if you saw my last comment on our last discussion as it was closed.
While the changes you helped mw with regarding switching the Culture worked, once I run the Console app and see that the translations are made successfully, no xml translation files are being written to the LocalizationResources folder. Any ideas? Thanks!

This is my set-up:

        using System.Globalization;
        using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
        using Microsoft.Extensions.Localization;
        using GqlClient;
        using IdentityModel.Client;
        using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
        using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Localization;
        using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration;
        using XLocalizer.Translate;
        using XLocalizer.Translate.MyMemoryTranslate;
        using XLocalizer;
        using XLocalizer.Xml;
        using XLocalizer.Common;
        using NotificationDaemon.LocalizationResources;
        
        namespace NotificationDaemon
        {
            public class Program
            {
                public static void Main(string[] args)
                {
                    // Build and configure Services
                    var Services = new ServiceCollection();
                    
                    ConfigureServices(Services);
        
                    // Add additional Services specific to the console app if needed
                    //Services.AddSingleton<LocalizerService>(); // Add LocalizerService as a singleton
        
                    var ServiceProvider = Services.BuildServiceProvider();
        
                    // Use the service provider to resolve and run your application logic
        
                    var Localizer = ServiceProvider.GetRequiredService<IStringLocalizer<LocSource>>();
        
                    //Test different cultures below by uncommenting them
                    
                    using (CultureSwitcher cs = new("es"))
                    {
                        var LocalizedString = Localizer["Hello world"];
                        Console.WriteLine(LocalizedString);
                    }
        
                    using (CultureSwitcher cs = new("fr"))
                    {
                        var LocalizedString = Localizer["The color is blue."];
                        Console.WriteLine(LocalizedString);
                    }
        
                    using (CultureSwitcher cs = new("en-US"))
                    {
                        var LocalizedString = Localizer["Hello world"];
                        Console.WriteLine(LocalizedString);
                    }
                }
        
                private static void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection Services)
                {
                    // Add IConfiguration instance
                    var configuration = new ConfigurationBuilder()
                        .SetBasePath(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory)
                        .AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true)
                        .Build();
        
                    Services.AddSingleton<IConfiguration>(configuration);
                    
                    Services.AddHttpClient<ITranslator, MyMemoryTranslateService>();
                    Services.AddSingleton<IXResourceProvider, XmlResourceProvider>();
        
                    Services.AddRazorPages().AddXLocalizer<LocSource, MyMemoryTranslateService>(ops =>
                    {
                        ops.ResourcesPath = "LocalizationResources";
                        ops.AutoAddKeys = true;
                        ops.AutoTranslate = true;
                        ops.UseExpressMemoryCache = true;
                    });
                }
            }
        }

And here is the Service class:

      using Microsoft.Extensions.Localization;
      using System.Globalization;
      
      namespace NotificationDaemon
      {
          public class LocalizerService
          {
              private readonly IStringLocalizerFactory _localizerFactory;
      
              public LocalizerService(IStringLocalizerFactory localizerFactory)
              {
                  _localizerFactory = localizerFactory;
              }
      
              public string GetString(string key, CultureInfo culture)
              {
                  var localizer = _localizerFactory.Create(typeof(LocalizationResources.LocSource));
                  return localizer[key, culture];
              }
          }
      }

@LazZiya I tried to sponsor this project but it says it no longer is taking PayPal. Anyway you can send me your PayPal email address to julian[at]proofpix.com ?

[LazZiya]

Thank you for your kindness :) PayPal is not working in my country :(
There is GitHub sponsors option, not sure if it will work 😅

[julianadormon]

Unfortunately, I am in Panama and I cannot use credit cards on GitHub. My card keeps getting declined. My only options is to use PayPal. So sorry!

[LazZiya]

No problem, at least you are the first to offer a sponsorship, so consider it done :)
