Ruby Internationalization and localization solution.
Currently maintained by @radar.
You will most commonly use this library within a Rails app.
See the Rails Guide for an example of its usage.
If you want to use this library without Rails, you can simply add i18n
to your Gemfile
:
gem 'i18n'
Then configure I18n with some translations, and a default locale:
I18n.load_path << Dir[File.expand_path("config/locales") + "/*.yml"] I18n.default_locale = :en # (note that `en` is already the default!)
A simple translation file in your project might live at config/locales/en.yml
and look like:
en: test: "This is a test"
You can then access this translation by doing:
I18n.t(:test)
You can switch locales in your project by setting I18n.locale
to a different value:
I18n.locale = :de I18n.t(:test) # => "Dies ist ein Test"
For more information and lots of resources see the 'Resources' page on the wiki.
You can run tests both with
rake test
or just rake
ruby -Ilib:test test/api/simple_test.rb
You can run all tests against all Gemfiles with
ruby test/run_all.rb
The structure of the test suite is a bit unusual as it uses modules to reuse particular tests in different test cases.
The reason for this is that we need to enforce the I18n API across various combinations of extensions. E.g. the Simple backend alone needs to support the same API as any combination of feature and/or optimization modules included to the Simple backend. We test this by reusing the same API defition (implemented as test methods) in test cases with different setups.
You can find the test cases that enforce the API in test/api. And you can find the API definition test methods in test/api/tests.
All other test cases (e.g. as defined in test/backend, test/core_ext) etc. follow the usual test setup and should be easy to grok.
