Detect the language & django locale-url

Question

I want to deploy a website in english & spanish and detect the user browser language & redirect to the correct locale site.

My site is www.elmalabarista.com

Answer 1

really it should be like this:

There can be multiple languages accepted by order of preference

def process_request(self, request):
    locale, path = utils.strip_path(request.path_info)
    if (not locale) or (locale==''):
        if request.META.has_key('HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'):
        l = [x.strip()[:2] for x in request.META['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'].split(',')]
        for lang_code in l:
                locale = utils.supported_language(lang_code)
                if locale:
          break
        else:
            locale = settings.LANGUAGE_CODE
    locale_path = utils.locale_path(path, locale)
    if locale_path != request.path_info:
        if request.META.get("QUERY_STRING", ""):
            locale_path = "%s?%s" % (locale_path,
                    request.META['QUERY_STRING'])
        return HttpResponseRedirect(locale_path)
    request.path_info = path
    if not locale:
        try:
            locale = request.LANGUAGE_CODE
        except AttributeError:
            locale = settings.LANGUAGE_CODE
    translation.activate(locale)
    request.LANGUAGE_CODE = translation.get_language()
