This is the globalization project extracted from spree_i18n for Spree Commerce version 3.1+.
For previous Spree versions you can just use spree_i18n.
See the official Internationalization documentation for more details.
Happy translating!
Add the following to your Gemfile:
gem 'spree_i18n', github: 'spree-contrib/spree_i18n'
gem 'spree_globalize', github: 'spree-contrib/spree_globalize'Run bundle install
You can use the generator to install migrations and append spree_globalize assets to your app spree manifest file.
rails g spree_globalize:install
This will insert these lines into your spree manifest files:
vendor/assets/javascripts/spree/backend/all.js
//= require spree/backend/spree_globalize
vendor/assets/javascripts/spree/frontend/all.js
//= require spree/frontend/spree_globalize
vendor/assets/stylesheets/spree/backend/all.css
*= require spree/backend/spree_globalize
This feature uses the Globalize gem to localize model data. So far the following models are translatable:
Product, Promotion, OptionType, Taxonomy, Taxon, Property and ShippingMethod.
Start your server and you should see a TRANSLATIONS link or a flag icon on each admin section that supports this feature.
There are two configs that allow users to customize which locales should be displayed as options on the translation forms and which should be listed to customers on the frontend. You can set them on an initializer. e.g.
SpreeI18n::Config.available_locales = [:en, :es, :'pt-BR'] # displayed on frontend select box
SpreeGlobalize::Config.supported_locales = [:en, :es, :'pt-BR'] # displayed on translation formsNOTE for early adopters: Spree::Globalize namespace is now SpreeGlobalize
PS. Please use symbols, not strings. e.g. :'pt-BR' not just 'pt-BR'. Otherwise
you may get unexpected errors
Or if you prefer they're also available on the admin UI general settings section.
Every record needs to have a translation. If by any chance you remove spree_globalize
from your Gemfile, add some records and then add spree_globalize gem back you might get
errors like undefined method for nilClass because Globalize will try fetch
translations that do not exist.
