<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-resources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>generate-localization</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<languages>
<language>en</language>
<language>cs</language>
</languages>
<sources>
<source>${project.basedir}/src/main/resources/localize/myproject-translations.csv</source>
</sources>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/generated-resources/localize/</outputDirectory>
<writers>
<writer>PropertiesLocalizationWriter</writer>
<writer>CsvdbLocalizationWriter</writer>
</writers>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
And provided src/main/resources/localize/myproject-translations.csv:
,,,en,cs
,net.dryuf.maven.plugin.csvlocalizer.Generator,Hello,Hello,Ahoj
,net.dryuf.maven.plugin.csvlocalizer.Generator,Some # inside,More #,# Another
#commented out,net.dryuf.maven.plugin.csvlocalizer.Generator,Again reasonable,Again reasonable,Again reasonable
This will generate localize/_messages_en.properties and localize/_messages_cs.properties with mapping relevant for respective language.
You can even easily include CSV localizations mappings from dependent jars by using dependency:unpack goal and then refering to unpacked CSV files.
