| 21 RoundUp Internationalization (I18N) | |
| 22 | |
| 23 To use this module, the following code should be used: | |
| 24 | |
| 25 from roundup.i18n import _ | |
| 26 ... | |
| 27 print _("Some text that can be translated") | |
| 28 | |
| 29 Note that to enable re-ordering of inserted texts in formatting strings | |
| 30 (which can easily happen if a sentence has to be re-ordered due to | |
| 31 grammatical changes), translatable formats should use named format specs: | |
| 32 | |
| 33 ... _('Index of %(classname)s') % {'classname': cn} ... | |
| 34 | |
| 35 Also, this eases the job of translators since they have some context what | |
| 36 the dynamic portion of a message really means. | |
| 37 | |
