Description of the code sample

The following command retrieves a specified, localized resource string. In this context, a resource is a file containing a list of strings paired keys representing MindTouch UI text instructions. Each language has its own unique resource file. The language can be be set in the "lang" parameter. The resource string key is defined through the "resource" parameter. The resource documents are located on the MindTouch file system. If a requested resource does not exist, a 404 Not Found HTTP response will be returned.

The following sample will fetch a German (de) resource string for key [Login] error.auth (represented as login.error.auth):

Sample Code

curl -u username:password -i http://mindtouch.address/@api/deki/site/localization?lang=de&resource=login.error.auth
