Subject: [Rails I18n] Very strange problem with Gettext and Haml
Message-ID: <2a86ba5484349f785ccdc034058bf44f@ruby-forum.com>

Hi,

I'm on Rails 2.3.3 and using Haml 2.0.9 for my templates and
Gettext-Rails 2.0.4 for the translation. Haml works like a charm and
gettext is also working like it should.

But I cant get Gettext to parse Haml Files when using "rake updatepo". I
created a custom parser like this:

# lib/haml_parser.rb
require 'gettext_rails/tools'
require 'haml'
# Haml gettext parser
module HamlParser
  module_function

  def target?(file)
    File.extname(file) == ".haml"
  end

  def parse(file, ary = [])
    haml = Haml::Engine.new(IO.readlines(file).join)
    code = haml.precompiled.split(/$/)
    GetText::RubyParser.parse_lines(file, code, ary)
  end
end

GetText::RGetText.add_parser(HamlParser)

My Rakefile looks like this:

# Rakefile
require(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'config', 'boot'))

require 'rake'
require 'rake/testtask'
require 'rake/rdoctask'

require 'tasks/rails'

desc "Create mo-files for L10n"
task :makemo do
  require 'gettext_rails/tools'
  GetText.create_mofiles(true)  #(true, "po", "locale")
end

desc "Update pot/po files to match new version."
task :updatepo do
  require 'gettext_rails/tools'
  require 'haml_parser'
  MY_APP_TEXT_DOMAIN = "APP"
  MY_APP_VERSION     = "APP 1.1.0"
  GetText.update_pofiles(MY_APP_TEXT_DOMAIN,
Dir.glob("{app,lib}/**/*.{rb,rhtml,html.erb,haml,html.haml,rjs}"),
                         MY_APP_VERSION)
end

This follows the known approach for parsing Haml files (
http://www.paulgillard.me.uk/2008/3/8/rails-haml-and-gettext ).

The problem: No MessageIds are recognized from my Haml files. I checked
with "puts" in the Haml-Parser if it tried the right files, could parse
them and so on. Everything seemed to be fine, it just recognize anything
and always returned only the already found msgids and for the Haml file
an empty Array.

The strange thing: When I enter this in my console, everything works:

$$ script/console
Loading development environment (Rails 2.3.3)
>> require 'gettext_rails/tools'
=> []
>> require 'haml'
=> []
>> file = "app/views/sessions/new.haml"
=> "app/views/sessions/new.haml"
>> haml = Haml::Engine.new(IO.readlines(file).join)
=> #<Haml::Engine:0x4254104 @tab_change=0, @block_opened=false, @inden
[...]
>> code = haml.precompiled.split(/$/)
=> [" content_for :head do;", "\nhaml_temp =  stylesheet_link [...]
>> GetText::RubyParser.parse_lines(file, code, [])
=> [["Login", "app/views/sessions/new.haml:4"], [...]

As you can see everything works here (I left out the long returns). I'm
kind of freaking out why this isn't the case in my Rake Task.

Anyone has an idea? You would really make me a happy Nerd!

Thanks!

Subject: [Rails I18n] Translating missing for I18n in models after upgrading
	gem
Message-ID: <d5c0c51d8aecec3dba32bcf912d3ce31@ruby-forum.com>

Hi everyone,

I deployed yesterday a new version of my website. For some features, I
had to upgrade rubygems to 1.3.1 version. Here is my gem env :
RubyGems Environment:
  - RUBYGEMS VERSION: 1.3.1
  - RUBY VERSION: 1.8.6 (2007-09-24 patchlevel 111) [i486-linux]
  - INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
  - RUBY EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/ruby1.8
  - EXECUTABLE DIRECTORY: /usr/bin
  - RUBYGEMS PLATFORMS:
    - ruby
    - x86-linux
  - GEM PATHS:
     - /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
     - /home/tableonline/.gem/ruby/1.8
  - GEM CONFIGURATION:
     - :update_sources => true
     - :verbose => true
     - :benchmark => false
     - :backtrace => false
     - :bulk_threshold => 1000
  - REMOTE SOURCES:
     - http://gems.rubyforge.org/

Version of rails is 2.2.2

Path seems to be ok, as all my gems are there.
But since then (and i really don't understand the link), I18n ONLY IN
MODELS rb files is not working and I get the "Translation missing: en"
message for variables in those files. The weird stuff is that my locale
is fr (and seems to work as the rest of the website is correctly
translated).
Even more strange, in development environment (on my mac) everything is
working with the same versions.

I tried changing locale, upgrading en.yml with french values, nothing
changed...

Any clue of what is happening ?

Thanks a lot.

This now more precise : only constants values in models are not working. 
But I still don't understand why.
Moreover, if I create the en.yml identical to fr (with en at the 
beginning of the file), the problem remains the same.

Subject: [Rails I18n] Translate Pages
Message-ID: <4e682aae9bc5d9174605b78ad0e76e77@ruby-forum.com>

Hi Guys,

PROBLEMS:

Our website supports both Chinese and English. We found that there are
many cases need different ways of translation.

a. For the views, we can translate words easily using the "_('hello
world')" functions.

b. For the static pages, we are using the:
/contact_us.html (for english)
/locale/zh_TW/contact_us.html (for chinese)


Nevertheless, there are two more cases I don't know how to translate way
are better:

c. Error page:
I don't know whether the "_()" function works

d. Server is down page:
when Rails is down, the lighttd may redirect to another static page.

METHODS:

How should we translate these four cases?

I am thinking whether we should load the English and then translate
using AJAX (or push the languages content to client and load it using
Javascript)?

Thanks!
Arthur

Subject: [Rails I18n] Problem with Iconv
Message-ID: <12959fac7c1cf706bcdff97837d46f7a@ruby-forum.com>

Hello!

Here is my code:

require 'iconv'

result = Iconv.iconv('ascii//translit//IGNORE', 'utf-8', "za???? g??l?
ja??")
puts result.to_s.gsub(/[^\x00-\x7F]+/, '').gsub(/[^\w_ \-]+/i,   '')

Result (Mac OS X Leopard):

code/Rails/x[master]% port list | grep iconv
libticonv                      @1.1.0          math/libticonv
p5-text-iconv                  @1.4            perl/p5-text-iconv
libiconv                       @1.12           textproc/libiconv

ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [i686-darwin9]
code/Rails/x[master]% ruby test.rb

This is what I want, but on my production (Ubuntu) machine i get much
different result:

rails at li103-32:~$ dpkg -l | grep iconv
ii  libtext-iconv-perl                1.7-1build1
converts between character sets in Perl
rails at li103-32:~$ ruby -v
ruby 1.8.6 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 287) [i686-linux]
Ruby Enterprise Edition 20090610
rails at li103-32:~$ ruby test.rb
za gl ja

What may causing this error? Maybe i need to install additional
packages?
