Module: Localeapp::TranslationHelperMonkeyPatch

Defined in:
lib/localeapp/rails/2_3_translation_helper_monkeypatch.rb

Overview

We’re replacing the original method with one that doesn’t set the :raise option. This means the exception handler will be called and missing translations get sent to localeapp. It’s ugly but there’s no other way to do it :(

Instance Method Details

#translate(keys, options = {}) ⇒ Object Also known as: t

Delegates to I18n#translate but also performs two additional functions. First, it’ll catch MissingTranslationData exceptions and turn them into inline spans that contains the missing key, such that you can see in a view what is missing where.

Second, it’ll scope the key by the current partial if the key starts with a period. So if you call translate(“.foo”) from the people/index.html.erb template, you’ll actually be calling I18n.translate(“people.index.foo”). This makes it less repetitive to translate many keys within the same partials and gives you a simple framework for scoping them consistently. If you don’t prepend the key with a period, nothing is converted.
