Question

I am trying to organize my localization files with a nested file structure so that it is easier to look up.

I have followed

Organization of Locale Files in rails app

How do you structure i18n yaml files in Rails?

but I am getting a translation missing: en.view.fruits.apple. I think that Rails is trying to only look up the translation in locales/en.yml file but not the sub-directories although, I have included them.

config/application.rb:

 config.i18n.load_path += Dir["#{Rails.root.to_s}/config/locales/**/*.{rb,yml}"]

My locales directory:

|locales   
|-en.yml
|-views
|--en.yml

locales/views/en.yml:

en:
  fruits:
    apple: "apple"

views/fruit.html.haml:

= I18n.t('views.fruits.apple')
Was it helpful?

Solution

Problem solved

in my views/fruit.html.haml

instead of

= I18n.t('views.fruits.apple')

it should be

= I18n.t('fruits.apple')

since all the sub-folders are preload from

config/application.rb

 config.i18n.load_path += Dir["#{Rails.root.to_s}/config/locales/**/*.{rb,yml}"]

And don't forget you need to restart your server !!
