Sinatra extension which provides i18n support to translate your web application.

It is a wrapper for R18n core library. See R18n documentation for more information.

Features

  • Nice Ruby-style syntax.
  • Filters.
  • Flexible locales.
  • Custom translations loaders.
  • Translation support for any classes.
  • Time and number localization.
  • Several user language support.

How To

  1. Create translations dir ./i18n/.

  2. Add file with translation to ./i18n/ with language code in file name (for example, en.yml for English or en-us.yml USA English dialect). For example, ./i18n/en.yml:

    post:
      friends: Post only for friends
      tags: Post tags are %1
    
    comments: !!pl
      0: No comments
      1: One comment
      n: '%1 comments'
    
    html: !!html
      <b>Don't escape HTML</b>
  3. Add R18n to your Sinatra application:

    require 'sinatra/r18n'

    If your application inherits from Sinatra::Base also add:

    class YourApp < Sinatra::Base
      register Sinatra::R18n
      set :root, __dir__
  4. Add locale to your URLs. For example:

    get '/:locale/posts/:id' do
      @post = Post.find(params[:id])
      haml :post
    end

    Or save locale in session, when user change it:

    before do
      session[:locale] = params[:locale] if params[:locale]
    end

    Warning: such hooks have to be before register Sinatra::R18n since R18n version 5 has no more lazy evaluation and initializes immediately. See #3 or specs / test application.

  5. Use translation messages in views. For example in HAML:

    %p= t.post.friends
    %p= t.post.tags(@post.tags.join(', '))
    
    %h2= t.comments(@post.comments.size)
  6. Print localized time and numbers. For example:

    l @post.created_at, :human
  7. Print available translations. For example in HAML:

    %ul
      - r18n.available_locales.each do |locale|
        %li
          %a( href="/#{locale.code}/" )= locale.title

Configuration

You can change default locale and translations dir:

R18n::I18n.default = 'ru'
R18n.default_places { './translations' }
