Subject: [Rails I18n] Script to extract text from application
Message-ID: <c20f0c2ef11d56f36b53fa4934018a6e@ruby-forum.com>

I accidentally posted this question in the Rails forum, but it might fit
better here...

I have a Rails application, that has grown quite large. At the moment
all texts are placed inside the template files like this:

<h3>This is a header</h3>

And inside the ruby code (like flash messages, model error messages,
etc.)

I now have the situation, that I want to place all text in an external
textfile in order to be able to e.g. translate the entire site.

Is there an easy way to extract all these texts and replace them with
e.g.

l(:some_text_key) in the ruby code and

<%=l(:some_text_key) in the templates?

or do I have to go through all files manually? (yikes)

BTW: I will happily move to Rails 2.2 if that is any help.

- Carsten

Subject: [Rails I18n] different view based on different model
Message-ID: <21fe6b2eab04ab80f7c7886b523e6984@ruby-forum.com>

I have a view that looks like this "Add a New #{@element.class}"
where my class can be "definition", "phrase", etc.

I want to do something like

<%= t 'new.form. at element.class'%>

so when @element is a "phrase" my view would show "Add New Phrase", When
my @element is a "definition" my view needs to be "Add New Definition"

Is this possible?

This forum must really not get much traffic. Anywhoo, I solved my own 
problem


<% type_of_element = @element.class.to_s.downcase %>
<% add_element_to_translate =
                          ["model", "add", type_of_element 
].compact.join('.')%>
<%= t add_element_to_translate %>

hopes this helps someone else, if you figure out a better way let me 
know!!

Subject: [Rails I18n] Nested Sentance translation
Message-ID: <af391800379007c630a83a261b941864@ruby-forum.com>

I want to have a sentence that contains elements i already have
translations for.
I already have:
      <%= t 'nested' %>

Is there anyway to have something like this in my yml file??

                                     <%= t 'nested' %> translations
would

Any help or insight is appreciated, If this isn't possible...let me

Hi Fernando,

had the same problem, but solving was quite easy:

I18n.locale = 
request.headers['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'].split(',')[0].split('-')[0]

greetings

1) This list is for discussion about Rails internationalization and  
localization. You should direct your question to the general Rails  
mailing list at http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk

2) You need to be more specific. That page is full of links. Which one  
of them doesn't work for you? Do any of them? Which version of Safari?  
What do you mean by "don't work"? For the record, I didn't find any  
broken links either on Webkit nightly or Safari 3, but I don't have  
the stamina to go through all of the links.

Subject: [Rails I18n] i18n with Active record
Message-ID: <43b40a2518a87b6f0cffeb3803a09db9@ruby-forum.com>

Hello all,

I am working on a new app where I need to implement
internationalization. But the thing is a bit complicated. That is,
initially there will be a few language translations available but later
the user needs to be able to edit existing translations on his account
and also needs to be able to add new language translations. So this
needs the translations to be stored in the database. Is there a plugin
which I can make use of? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
