I wrote a validates_word_count plugin. I would like to store the error messages
in a YAML file so they can be easily translated.
Full source:
https://github.com/paulschreiber/validates_word_count/
My plugin''s file layout looks like this:
validates_word_count/
init.rb
lib/
validates_word_count.rb
locale/
en.yml
My YAML file looks like this:
en:
validates_word_count:
errors:
messages:
too_few_words: "has too few words (minimum is %d words)"
too_many_words: "has too many words (maximum is %d words)”
However, if I call
I18n.translate(''validates_word_count.errors.messages.too_few_words''),
I get this error:
translation missing: en, validates_word_count, errors, messages, too_few_words
How can I set up my plugin / locale so I18n.translate() works?

Re: How do I internationalize/localize my rails plugin?
Hi, Here''s some example code from a Rails engine: https://github.com/kete/external_search_sources/blob/master/init.rb You''ll note that it follows the Rails convention of having a config and config/locales directory.

I tried this layout: validates_word_count/ init.rb lib/ validates_word_count.rb config locales/ en.yml And I still get the "translation missing" error.

Re: Re: How do I internationalize/localize my rails plugin?
Yes, but did you add your locales directory to the load path as in init.rb file I linked to? That part is the missing step. Using the convention of Rails is not enough, you have to tell Rails to include files in the directory.

Success. I heard back from Paul that that last bit did the trick. Cheers, Walter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
