Installing additional dictionaries
Brightspot comes with generic English and Spanish dictionaries for spell checking. You need to install additional dictionaries if you want to use region-specific spelling, such as UK English or Mexican Spanish, or if you want to spell check in a language other than English or Spanish.
Download or create the Hunspell dictionary, both a
.dicfile and an.afffile. Give each file a base nameHunspellDictionary_xx.The last two letters of the base name must be a language code that Java recognizes. For a list of two-letter language codes, see Codes for the Representation of Names of Languages.
Example:
HunspellDictionary_fr.dicandHunspellDictionary_fr.affInstalling a dictionary
HunspellDictionary_enreplaces Brightspot's internal US English dictionary.
Place the files in
cms/hunspell/src/main/resources/.Rebuild your Brightspot project.
Brightspot uses the installed dictionary for users with the matching locale. For example, if you installed a dictionary HunspellDictionary_fr.dic, and a user's locale is French, Brightspot spell checks the user's text in French. If a user selects a locale for which there is no matching dictionary, spelling falls back to the browser (which has its own rules for spell checking).
