ready_for_i18n

Ready_for_i18n is handy tool helping you in the first step of getting your local Rails project ready for I18N.

It will automatically extract hard-coded text from your ERB view file, then choose a proper key and replace them with the I18n.translate method.

Currently three extractors are available:

Extractor	From	To
HtmlTextExtractor	`<b>Hello</b>`	`<b><%=t(:text_hello)%></b>`
HtmlAttrExtractor	`<input type="submit" value="Back"/>`	`<input type="submit" value="<%=t(:label_back)"/>`
ErbHelperExtractor	`link_to('Login'...)`	`link_to (t(:login))`

Introduction Blog at: Get your application ready for I18N

Installation:

gem install ready_for_i18n

Hosed at http://www.gemcutter.org/gems/ready_for_i18n

Basic Command Line Usage:

ready_for_i18n <path_to_ERB_source_files> [target path]

Your erb files in source path will be transformed(i18n_ready) and copy to target file path. If the target path is missing, then ready_for_i18n will do a Dry run and only generate the locale file.

A locale file will be output to STDOUT, which you can redirect to file like

ready_for_i18n <path_to_ERB_source_files> [target path] > /temp/en.yml

Using the following options:

	`--locale [LOCALE]`	`Generating for the specified locale (default locale 'en')`
	`--ext [EXTENSION]`	`The file extension name of your views(default '.html.erb')`
	`--dot`	Generate a structured dictionary file and support `Lazy` Lookup of Rails > 2.3

Warning

This tool is used based on the most “conventional” way of HTML and ERB. But I can not guarantee all the text will be extracted correctly. Create an issue in this github project page if you found some thing miss.

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

Fork the project.
Make your feature addition or bug fix.
Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.
Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
