Translates

Translates is an extremely minimalist implementation of the Mobility translation framework. It is intended to serve as a teaching aid to explain concepts such as Inversion of Control and Separation of Concerns.

Translates is composed of a very small core and some sample backends and plugins you can use to implement storage patterns and access patterns.

Extend the Translates module in your class and call translates with one or more attribute names as well as a backend class and optional array of plugins. You need to explicitly require each backend and plugin you use since they are not autoloaded.

require 'translates/column_backend'
require 'translates/fallbacks_plugin'

class Post
  extend Translates
  translates :title, backend: Translates::ColumnBackend, plugins: [Translates::FallbacksPlugin]
end
