Answer 1

You can even use a calculated message key as a parameter:

<p th:text="#{messages.msg1(${param1})}"></p>
<p th:text="#{messages.msg2(${param2},${param3})}"></p>
<p th:text="#{messages.msg3(#{${param4}})}"></p>

Above, the parameter of [msg3] is a message key [#{key}] where key is itself calculated [${param4}]. The benefit is that you can insert internationalized calculated fragments in an internationalized message.

Answer 2

If you need to pass an array of parameters where you don't know the size of the array then you can use:

<p th:text="${#messages.msgWithParams(messageKey, messageParams)}"></p>
<!-- or -->
<p th:text="${#messages.msgOrNullWithParams(messageKey, messageParams)}"></p>

Answer 3

You can use

#{welcome.message(${some.attribute})}

where some.attribute would be the value to use when replacing {0}.

You should be able to comma separate the values between the () to add more values to be used.
