    Get all configured cultures in C#? (Umbraco 8)

    I'm trying to implement some language-related customizations, for which I need to get one of the following from C# inside a ContentFinder:

    Preferred: a list of the languages/cultures configured for the site in Settings

    Fallback: a list of all the languages/cultures available in Umbraco

    I know I can get the allowed cultures from a root content node, but I want to avoid the overhead of querying a specific node, as the code is going to be called on every page request.

    If anyone could point me in the right direction, it would be a big help.

    Thanks.

    Hi David,

    The Localization service will return all installed languages 

    localizationService.GetAllLanguages();

    It is a back office service so you might want to cache the results if you hitting it a lot.

    Kevin,

    Perfect, this is exactly what I needed!

    I probably will need to cache this result. Can you tell me what method you would suggest to perform the caching? This is inside an Umbraco ContentFinder.

    Hi

    I would lean towards using the AppCache.RuntimeCache

    (good small example here https://our.umbraco.com/Documentation/Reference/Cache/examples/tags#tagservice)

    And probibly something that clears it on the LocalizationService.DeletedLanguage or LocalizationService.SavedLanguage event just to be safe.
