rails-i18n

I am working on a rails app (3.2.13) that is being translated into several languages, including (one of the 3 available flavours of) Norwegian. On public pages, the app uses the browser's language settings to set locale. Most browsers offer 3 separate Norwegian shortcodes: no , nb & nn . The translations we have are in nb , but I think it would be best if no & nn also defaulted to nb . That way, if a user's browser language preferences were set to no then en , the app would try to supply nb Norwegian first, instead of skipping straight to English. Is it possible to configure a list of

What I have in my model is: def body_color_enum [ ['Aqua', '#009c9c'], ['Grey', '#6d6e71'], ['Yellow', '#ffe600'], ['White', 'white'] ] end I want these values to come from the translation file 'en.yml' en: group: hero: hex1: '#6d6e71' name1: 'Dark grey' hex2: '#ccc' name2: 'Light grey' hex3: '#0099ce' name3: 'Blue' hex4: '#ffffff' name4: 'White' I have tried this: def body_color_enum [ [t('group.hero.name1'), '#009c9c'], ['Grey', '#6d6e71'], ['Yellow', '#ffe600'], ['White', 'white'] ] end But i get this error: undefined method `t' for #<Group:0x007fabad847ac8> So what I'm asking is how can I

I'm using arrays in a locale file to be able to generate blocks of text in various output methods (ActionMailer templates, Prawn documents, HAML templates) that are locale-specific. It works perfectly, but sometimes I want to pass variables into these I18n calls. However, this doesn't work. Say my locale file looks like this: en: my_array: - "Line 1" - "Line 2" - "Line 3 has a %{variable}" - "Line 4" I want the output of I18n.t('my_array', :variable => 'variable named variable') to be as follows: ["Line 1", "Line 2", "Line 3 has a variable named variable", "Line 4"] However, the output is: [

You placed something like this in config/application.rb I18n.enforce_available_locales = true config.i18n.load_path += Dir[Rails.root.join('config/locales/', '*.{rb,yml}').to_s] config.i18n.available_locales = ['es-LA', :en] config.i18n.default_locale = 'es-LA' And the warning still appears: [deprecated] I18n.enforce_available_locales will default to true in the future. The reason is due to a bug with locales that have the language-country format. The good news is that it has been fixed already. This was reported in Github with Issue 13164 and fixed with pull request 229 . If you want to grab

Russian alphabet includes the letter ё , which was undeservedly forgotten at beggining of computing. So, if i want to use a regexp with character diapason, I must mention this letter separately: [а-яА-яёЁ] instead of: [а-яА-Я] example: lets we have string "Верёвочка - 12" and need to parse only word by regular expression: word = "Верёвочка"[/а-яА-Я/] # => "" word = "Верёвочка"[/а-яА-ЯёЁ/] # => "Верёвочка" How can I upgrade regexp class in Ruby or Ruby on Rails to resolve this problem? This is cool - I had never thought that much about character ranges in unicode. It seems that for some reason

I'm guessing that rails stores all the parsed translations yml files in a sort of array/hash. Is there a way to access this? For example, if I've a file: en: test_string: "testing this" warning: "This is just an example Could I do something like, I18n.translations_store[:en][:test_string] ? I could parse the yml file with YAML::load, but in my case I've splitted the yml files in subfolders for organization, and I'm pretty sure that rails already parsed them all. You got to call a private method on the backend. This is how you get access: translations = I18n.backend.send(:translations)
