translates_fields

Provides a way of storing and retreiving tranlsation keys and options in your ActiveRecord models.

Add gem 'translates_fields' to your Gemfile and run bundle install.

Your model must have a text column defined.

class Address < ActiveRecord::Base
  translates :country
end

You then assign a translation key for your instances.

address = Address.new(:country => :france)
puts address.country 
# => This is the same as calling I18n.translate(:'models.address.attributes.country.france')
