Problem

  • Finding all translations by parsing is impossible for dynamic calls
  • often even static calls are not found
  • some file formats do not have a gettext parser

Solution

  • log all translations during test execution
  • write them to an parseable temp file
  • use gettext:find / gettext:pack as usual
  • missing translation = missing test, write tests!

This will only work with FastGettext and RSpec for now!

Install

  • rails plugin install git://github.com/grosser/gettext_test_log.git
  • Gem: gem install gettext_test_log

Usage

rake gettext:test_log

Optionally copy+modify task with options: :exclude_msgids_in_po_files=>[ 'some_po_file_that_contains_translations_you_do_not_need.po' ]

Add to your spec_helper: #spec/spec_helper.rb GettextTestLog::activate_test_logging

Run: rake gettext:test_log rake gettext:find #find new translations #fill newly found translations rake gettext:pack #write translations

Examples output

#locale/testlog_phrases.rb
_("Add to favorites")
_("Added a subtitle to %{name}")
_("Additional Information")
_("Address")
...

Unwanted translations

When using gettext_i18n_rails, most of the columns of a model will be translated during model tests this can be annoying since normally no user will see them. To disable this, add to spec/spec_helper.rb : class ActiveRecord::Base def self.human_attribute_name(attr) attr.to_s end end

TODO

  • needs tests... :(
  • make compatible with GetText and FastGettext at the same time ?
