Build Error Translation Service (Classes)

[oblique goblet]

Hi guys, I'm new to JAVA and I want to build a service (classes) to translate error message before sending to Client. But unlike js, I can define an error file as JSON. Anyone know how to do it in JAVA or the way to save translation data (EX: EN, MALAY) and use it to find the correct error code to return the translated message? (I don't want to use I18n). Thanks in advance

what you have done so far?

i mean do know how to read and write to files?

[oblique goblet]

I don't know what to do. For EX:

In JS I can have this JSON:
{
'INVALID_USER': {
'en': 'Invalid user',
'xx': ' xx xxx xx'
}
}

then when throwing new error like: throw new BadRequestionException("INVALID_USER")
In behind the scene, I will map the actual message from the json file and then send it to Client

but for JAVA, I don't know how can save data like JSON and get translation easily based on the INVALID_USER and (Accept-langague: xx)

[misty parcel]

use a Map object instead of json!

[oblique goblet]

can you help me to give EX for map

I still don't know what should I do

@oblique goblet if you don't need to use Json specifically, java has a feature called a ResourceBundle which supports this kind of translation which might be worth checking out: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/i18n/resbundle/concept.html

I will check this. Thanks a lot
