rails-i18n

I have my default locale set in the environment.rb as de (German). I also see all the error messages in German, so the locale is picked up by the server. But when I try to print date with strftime like following: some_date.strftime('%B, %y') It prints in English ( January, 11 ), and not the expected German ( Januar, 11 ). How can I print the date according to the default locale? Milan Novota Use the l (alias for localize ) method instead of raw strftime, like this: l(date, format: '%B %d, in the year %Y') See here for more information, hope that helps. You can also define 'named' formats, a

I don't understand why my method translate undefines start_with? method and is messing something in irb, so I can exit irb only by pressing Ctrl + d , not exit or quit : >> "hello".respond_to?(:start_with?) => true >> def translate(string) >> if string.start_with?("a", "e", "i", "o", "u") >> string += "ay" >> end >> end NoMethodError: undefined method `start_with?' for #<RubyVM::InstructionSequence:0x00000001d4c960> from (irb):3:in `translate' from /usr/local/rvm/rubies/ruby-2.3.0/bin/irb:11:in `<main>' >> "hello".respond_to?(:start_with?)

I have an application (my_test_app) with working i18n support built. Currently, there are two language files available, FR & EN, and if I toggle back and forth between them, everything works as I expect to see it for non-engine functions such as the User index/show/edit/delete (ISED) options. Within my_test_app I have a Rails Engine mounted (my_engine) which has a controller & model set (engine_job). So, a workable URL should be http://0.0.0.0:3000/fr/my_engine/engine_job No matter what language I choose, however, it always shows up in EN. Examining the parameters shows: --- !ruby/hash

I want to be able to translate pluralized strings in i18n in rails. A string can be : You have 2 kids or You have 1 kid I know that I can use pluralize helper method, but I want to embed this in i18n translations so that I don't have to mess up with my views at any point in the future. I read that :count is somehow used in translations for plural, but I can't find any real resources on how it gets implemented. Notice that I know that I can pass a variable in a translation string. I also tried something like : <%= t 'misc.kids', :kids_num => pluralize(1, 'kid') %> Which works fine, but has a

I have this i18n problem activerecord: notices: messages: success: create: "Something was created" models: user: success: create: "Thanks for registration" I18n.t("activerecord.notices.models.user.success.create") # => "Thanks for registration" I18n.t("activerecord.notices.models.book.success.create") # => "translation missing: de, activerecord, notices, models, book, success, create" I don't know why the book model doesn't get the fallback massage. I have set config.i18n.fallbacks = true . I'm using Rails 3 When a :default option is given, its value will be returned if the translation is

I just updated to rails 4.0.2 and I'm getting this warning: [deprecated] I18n.enforce_available_locales will default to true in the future. If you really want to skip validation of your locale you can set I18n.enforce_available_locales = false to avoid this message. Is there any security issue in setting it to false? Simone Carletti Important : Make sure your app is not using I18n 0.6.8, it has a bug that prevents the configuration to be set correctly . Short answer In order to silence the warning edit the application.rb file and include the following line inside the Rails::Application body
