"no data found" localization

[frederic]

Hi team,

 

The noDataTemplate configuration option defaults to string "NO DATA FOUND."

It seems this is not localized in kendo.message.xx-XX.js

 

Please advise.

 

Best regards.

Hello Frederic,

In general, the localisations files are community driven and they are usually updated by the Kendo UI community:

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/framework/localization/overview#contribution

The messages can be added manually by using the en-US messages file which contains all of the needed messages:

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/framework/localization/overview#configuration-Create

I hope this will help to achieve the desired result.

Hi frederic

did you figure this out? Looking at the language files (https://github.com/telerik/kendo-ui-core/tree/master/src/messages) I don't see a handle for "no data found".

Hello, Morten,

This is where the no data template is located and what is the key for that message:

https://github.com/telerik/kendo-ui-core/blob/master/src/messages/kendo.messages.en-US.js#L371

Let me know if you need more details on this matter.

Hi Stefan,

Your link now contains the string: "pdf": "Export to PDF",

Can you provide a detailed example of what condition and what parameters need to be passed? For example:

if (kendo.ui.ComboBox) {
kendo.ui.Grid.prototype.options.messages =
$.extend(true, kendo.ui.Grid.prototype.options.messages,{

"noDataFound": "message" 

});

Thanks! :)

Hi, Vladimir,

There seems to be some misunderstanding in this thread regarding the messages.

The Kendo UI Grid has a "noRecords" property which can be localized by extending the grid messages, alternatively, if you are a native speaker in the language that is missing a translation, you can let me know the details and I can add them so they will be available thereafter:

if (kendo.ui.Grid) {
kendo.ui.Grid.prototype.options.messages =
$.extend(true, kendo.ui.Grid.prototype.options.messages,{
  "commands": {
    "cancel": "Cancel changes",
    "canceledit": "Cancel",
    "create": "Add new record",
    "destroy": "Delete",
    "edit": "Edit",
    "excel": "Export to Excel",
    "pdf": "Export to PDF",
    "save": "Save changes",
    "select": "Select",
    "update": "Update"
  },
  "editable": {
    "cancelDelete": "Cancel",
    "confirmation": "Are you sure you want to delete this record?",
    "confirmDelete": "Delete"
  },
  "noRecords": "No records available.",
  "expandCollapseColumnHeader": "",
  "groupHeader": "Press ctrl + space to group",
  "ungroupHeader": "Press ctrl + space to ungroup"
});
}

In case this is about the Kendo UI ComboBox - the widget does not use messages at the moment, but you may change the noDataTemplate as needed:

https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/combobox/configuration/nodatatemplate

Finally, I would imagine that in the case of multiple localizations, this may be a great feature to have - the ability to localize the dropdowns via messages. If you like, I can create a feature request on your behalf and allow others to vote for it.

Let me know what you think.
