globalize3-jquery-autocomplete

Use JQuery autocomplete (via rails3-jquery-autocomplete) with globalize3 translated ActiveRecord models.

Internals: This gem patches the get_autocomplete_items method (provided by rails3-jquery-autocomplete) so it works with translated model columns.

Since we are not actively using this gem any more, further development is unlikely. If anyone wants to submit a PR, we will of course still try to review + merge.

rails3-jquery-autocomplete 1.0 and globalize3 0.3 are supported.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'globalize3-jquery-autocomplete'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install globalize3-jquery-autocomplete

Simply follow the documentation at globalize3 for how to translate your models and rails3-jquery-autocomplete for how to set up autocomplete.

You don't need any additional configuration. As soon as a column is translated, autocomplete will automatically be in context of the current locale.

Example (in your controller):

# query for matches in the current locale (given the 'name' column of your Brand model is translated):
autocomplete :brand, :name
