Module: ActiveModel::Translation

Relationships & Source Files

self, Naming
Defined in: activemodel/lib/active_model/translation.rb

Overview

Provides integration between your object and the Rails internationalization (i18n) framework.

A minimal implementation could be:

class TranslatedPerson
  extend ActiveModel::Translation
end

TranslatedPerson.human_attribute_name('my_attribute')
# => "My attribute"

This also provides the required class methods for hooking into the Rails internationalization API, including being able to define a class-based #i18n_scope and #lookup_ancestors to find translations in parent classes.

Instance Method Details



  

    #human_attribute_name(attribute, options = {})  
  



  

    

Transforms attribute names into a more human format, such as “First name” instead of “first_name”.



Person.human_attribute_name("first_name") # => "First name"



Specify options with additional translating options.

    #i18n_scope  
  



  

    

Returns the i18n_scope for the class. Override if you want custom lookup.

def i18n_scope
  :activemodel
end


  








  

    #lookup_ancestors  
  



  

    

When localizing a string, it goes through the lookup returned by this method, which is used in Name#human, Errors#full_messages and #human_attribute_name.
