Problem:
A client application displays notifications to users through a notification API. When the notification API is called, notification keys are sent to the user interface (UI), which stores the values for these keys.
Initially, only one application was using the notification API, and the UI (presumably built with Angular) was responsible for maintaining the notification values. However, as two additional applications started using the notification API, the responsibility of maintaining notification keys was distributed across all three applications. This decentralized approach led to significant maintenance challenges, as each application had to independently manage its own set of notification keys.
Solution:
To streamline the process and reduce the maintenance burden, we decided to centralize the translation logic on the backend. By doing so, the notification key-value mappings would be managed in one place, and the notification API would handle all the necessary translations. This change allowed all three applications to consume the notification API without having to manage their own notification keys, ensuring a more efficient and unified approach to notification management.
Implementation:
Since the backend API was developed using ASP.NET, we leveraged C# localization concepts to implement the solution. This approach enabled us to maintain a centralized source for all translation logic and notification key mappings, which simplified the overall management and scalability of the system.
