Handling sys_lanugage_uid in rest calls

[rorentz]

It is more a question than an issue.
What is the best way to realize routes for getting objects in the localized way.
Calling for example a route /rest/getnews gives me all news objects for sys_language_uid = 0.
How do i get the localized objects?

I am looking forward for an answer.

By the way, i like your extension very much !!!!

There are different ways:

a) Add L= to the request URI
b) Send the Accept-Language header and configure the mapping in plugin.tx_rest.settings.languages. (e.g. Accept-Language: de and TS plugin.tx_rest.settings.languages.de = 1)

Great, working with the Accept-Language header i like.
When i debug $GLOBALS['TSFE']->sys_language_uid; in the controller, where the repository call happens, i then get the value1. But when i receive the extbase object from the repository the one with sys_language_uid = 0 is returned.

Am i missing some setup ?

May be to you have a working example?

I've got only single language installations of REST at the moment.

Could the problem have to do with https://forge.typo3.org/issues/57272 or does the localization work outside the REST extension?

I will give it a try. Thank you very much!

Okay, for domain objects it works, but the LocalizationUtility does not respect the language and show the default labels.

The solution would be to add the following in the Bootstrap.php:

`
/**
* Configure the system to use the requested language UID
*
* @param TypoScriptFrontendController $frontendController
*/
private function setRequestedLanguage(TypoScriptFrontendController $frontendController)
{
// Set language if defined
$requestedLanguageUid = GeneralUtility::_GP('L') !== null
? intval(GeneralUtility::_GP('L'))
: $this->getRequestedLanguageUid($frontendController);

    if (null !== $requestedLanguageUid) {
        $frontendController->config['config']['sys_language_uid'] = $requestedLanguageUid;
        // Add LinkVars and language to work with correct localized labels
        $frontendController->config['config']['linkVars'] = 'L(int)';
        $frontendController->config['config']['language'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'];
    }
}

`

Can you please implement that ? Would be great !

Thank YOU!

Hy!

Sorry for the delay. I implemented the changes in eb40715. Can you have a look?

[rorentz]

Seems to work!

@cundd : In which version have you included the fix ? I do not really find it in the repo. Thank you so much.

[cundd]

It's only in the git Repository yet. In branch v4
