By setting up I18n formats, you can leverage the translations by defining you're own formats in locale files and adding the following initializer to your rails app:

# config/initializers/date_time_to_ls_extension.rb

module DateTimeToLsExtension
  def to_ls(format = :default, **opts)

    opts[:format] = if format.to_s.include?('ordinal')
      I18n.t(format, scope: [self.respond_to?(:sec) ? 'time' : 'date', :formats], ordinal: self.day.ordinalize)
    else
      format.to_sym
    end

    I18n.localize(self, opts)
  end
end

Date.prepend(DateTimeToLsExtension)
Time.prepend(DateTimeToLsExtension)

This extends the Date, Time and ActiveSupport date/time objects with the to_ls helper, which just simplifies calling I18n.localize, and adds the ability to have day of month ordinals (i.e. '2nd March')

Successor to stamp-i18n, designed to work with newer versions of stamp.

Uses Rails Internationalization to bring stamp to all locales.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

# Stamp changes a lot between versions, so make sure to pin its version
gem 'stamp', '= 0.6.0'
gem 'stamp-l10n'

And then execute:

$ bundle

This gem uses i18n translation mechnism, which means before using it, first we need to add proper translation files to locales folder and then setup i18n configuration. Example YML files used for testing is written in few various languages and are located in ./locale folder. Look for more examples here: https://github.com/svenfuchs/rails-i18n/tree/master/rails/locale

Same as stamp, but gives the option of locale_stamp, or l_stamp (an alias) for when you need your stamped content to be localized.

date = Date.new(2017, 02, 22)
date.stamp('Tuesday 12th March')
#=> "Wednesday 22nd February"

Using the new locale_stamp method:

date = Date.new(2017, 02, 22)
date.locale_stamp('Tuesday 12th March')  # default locale is :de
#=> "Mittwoch 22nd Februar"
date.l_stamp('Tuesday 12th March')       # default locale is :pl
#=> "środa 22nd luty"

You can also optionally override the locale used:

date = Date.new(2017, 02, 22)
date.locale_stamp('Tuesday 12th March', :de)  # default locale is :en
#=> "Mittwoch 22nd Februar"

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
