🍎 Native iOS Localization for Ditto ID SDK

This guide provides instructions to configure localization in a Native iOS application integrating the Ditto ID SDK, based on Section 11.4.1 of the integration guide.

🧾 Overview

Ditto ID Framework supports multilingual localization for custom languages. English is provided by default. Developers can add more languages and override existing string values.

📄 Required Files

The following .strings files are used by various components of the SDK:

These files are provided by Ditto.

🛠️ Integration Steps

Step 1: Get the .strings Files

Request these files from the Ditto ID team.

Step 2: Add Files to Xcode

• Drag and drop the string files into your Xcode project.

Step 3: Enable Localization

• Select the string file (e.g., IDVCore.strings) in the project navigator.
• In the Identity Inspector, click Localize.

Step 4: Add New Language

• Go to Project > Info > Localizations.
• Enable Use Base Internationalization if not already selected.
• Click + to add a new language (e.g., French).

Step 5: Create Language-Specific File

• Select the .strings file (e.g., IDVCore.strings).
• Choose the new language (e.g., French).
• Xcode will create a new file: IDVCore.strings (French).

Step 6: Customize Translations

Override the key-value pairs in the new file to reflect the localized strings.

"SCAN_DOCUMENT_PROMPT" = "Veuillez scanner le document";
"CAPTURE_SELFIE_PROMPT" = "Veuillez capturer un selfie";

🔁 Repeat for Other Modules

Repeat steps 2–6 for rest of the other modules:

This setup ensures your iOS application delivers a fully localized experience across all Ditto ID SDK components.
