How I can localize name of tree nodes in custom section?

I have created a few nodes with a tree controller like this:

protected TreeNodeCollection GetChildTreeNodes(string id, System.Net.Http.Formatting.FormDataCollection queryStrings)
        {
            var nodes = new TreeNodeCollection {
                    CreateTreeNode(id+"-1", id, queryStrings, "Settings", "icon-mail2cms-settingstwo-gearalt",false,"mail2CMS/mail2CMSTree/settings/" + id + "-1"),
                    CreateTreeNode(id+"-2", id, queryStrings, "Mapping", "icon-mail2cms-emailforwarders", false,"mail2CMS/mail2CMSTree/mapping/" + id + "-2"),
                    CreateTreeNode(id+"-3", id, queryStrings, "Blacklist and Whitelist", "icon-mail2cms-th-list", false, "mail2CMS/mail2CMSTree/blackwhitelist/" + id + "-3")
                };
            return nodes;
        }

How can I localize the name of tree nodes (here: "Settings", "Mapping", "Blacklist") ?

My language file looks like this:

<area alias="mail2cms">    
  <key alias="settings">My settings</key>
  <key alias="mapping">My mapping</key>
  <key alias="blacklist">My Blacklist</key>
</area>

Can anyone help me, please?

Cheers

I have solved it with ui.Text(areaAlias,key)

CreateTreeNode(id+"-1", id, queryStrings, ui.Text("mail2cms", "settings"), "icon-mail2cms-settingstwo-gearalt",false,"mail2CMS/mail2CMSTree/settings/" + id + "-1"),

I think the following is depreciated:
```
ui.Text("mail2cms", "settings")
```
And you should be using the localizationService, however I am not sure of the syntax, maybe someone else can confirm the new syntax?

Think it's the TextService you need to use, that has a localize method

(LocalizationService is for languages and dictionary items)

Example usage can be found here https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Extending/Language-Files/Language-Files-For-Packages/

Thanks Tim,

I am currently working on a 7.2.6 site and it seems the syntax is slightly different to the documentation you pointed to, so I thought I'd add a comment on here in case it is useful for someone else.

In the version I am using, you also have to pass in a culture, I have slightly changed my code so it is trying to get the same key mentioned in the original question above:
```
var textService = this.ApplicationContext.Services.TextService;
textService.Localize("mail2cms/settings"), CultureInfo.CurrentCulture)
```
I hope this thread helps someone else :)

Cheers,

Chris
