problem with i18n in chameleon zpt
Geo
project with paster create -t pyramid_routesalchemy, and I gone
through the following steps to setup the i18n:
1. changed the development.ini:
default_locale_name = zh
2. changed in the the mytemplate.pt:
<h2 i18n:translate="search-document">Search documentation</h2>
...
<p class="app-welcome" i18n:translate="">
Welcome to <span class="app-name" i18n:name='app-name'>$
{project}</span>, an application generated by<br/>
the Pyramid web application development framework.
</p>
3. easy_install "chameleon<1.999"
4. changed in the setup.py to make babel to consider **.pt files when
doing message id extraction.
5. python setup.py extract_messages
6. python setup.py init_catalog -l zh
7. make the translation in chinese in the po file
8. compile_catalog
9. changed in the __init__.py:
config.add_translation_dirs('myproject:locale/')
after all the above steps, I ran the server and open the page, but I
couldn't see my translation, even with http://localhost:6543/?_LOCALE_=zh
Can anybody in the group help me with this problem?

Make sure you specify the i18n namespace and your application domain
in the template. Something like:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"
xmlns:tal="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/tal"
xmlns:i18n="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/i18n"
i18n:domain="mypyramidapp">
Hope that helps you.

<h2 i18n:translate="search-document">Search documentation</h2>
msgid "search-document"
msgstr "Search it!"
and that works fine,
but the other part, which is:
the Pyramid web application development framework.
</p>
msgid ""
"Welcome to ${appname} an application generated by the Pyramid web "
"application development framework. "
msgstr "Welcome to ${appname}!"
never showed up in the rendering result. Would you give me further
assistance to help me out?

The request locale is initialized in a event subscriber:

from pyramid.events import NewRequest
from pyramid.events import subscriber
@subscriber(NewRequest)
def set_request_locale(event):
request = event.request
from pyramid.threadlocal import get_current_registry
settings = get_current_registry().settings
languages = settings['available_languages'].split()
for lang in request.accept_language.best_matches():
if lang in languages:
request._LOCALE_ = lang
break
else:
request._LOCALE_ = settings['default_locale_name']
-- 8< -------------------------------------------
The translation of strings that are defined in Python code and
translated using get_localizer(request).translate(_('Customers'))
works correctly.
_ is initialized as _ = TranslationStringFactory('invoicer').
Any help would be appreciated.

Ah! I remember this one... Try:
----- %< -----
<p class="app-welcome" i18n:translate="">
Welcome to <span class="app-name" i18n:name="app">${project}</span>,
an application generated by<br i18n:name="break"/> the Pyramid web
application development framework.</p>
----- %< -----
Note the use of i18n:name for all the inline markup (including break
tags) and no newline at the end of the element with i18n:translate.
I still wonder what's the right solution for this...

Weird, for me it generates:
msgid ""
"Welcome to ${app}, an application generated by${break} the Pyramid web "
"application development framework."
msgstr ""
Note the ending of this message id "...framework." and yours have
"...framework. " (an extra space).

Which version of Chameleon is this?

Try this:
http://pagetemplates.org/docs/latest/reference.html#i18n-name
Meanwhile, I've considered whether expressions like ${...} should
automatically become i18n:name blocks, e.g. ${1}, ${2} and so forth
for each unnamed apperance (that is, if there's an enclosing
i18n:translate statement).

I've seen it in 1.2.3 and 1.3.0-rc1. I haven't been able to start
pyramid with 2.0.

Using this template:
----- mytemplate.pt -----
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"
xmlns:tal="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/tal"
xmlns:i18n="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/i18n" i18n:domain="myapp">
<head>
<title>Testing i18n</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/>
</head>
<body>
<span i18n:translate="">
<span tal:replace="name" i18n:name="name" /> was born in
<span tal:replace="country_of_birth" i18n:name="country" />.
</span>
</body>
</html>
For this view:
----- views.py -----
@view_config(context=MyModel, renderer='myapp:templates/mytemplate.pt')
def my_view(request):
return {'project':'myapp',
'name':'Foo Bar',
'country_of_birth':'Baz'}
The extracted message is:
----- locale/myapp.pot -----
#: myapp/templates/mytemplate.pt:8
msgid "${name} was born in ${country}. "
msgstr ""
Again, note the white space after the dot. If I initialize a language
and translate this string, after starting the server I see the
original message with the appropriate values from the view:
Foo Bar was born in Baz.
If I change the template to this:
...
<span tal:replace="country_of_birth" i18n:name="country" />.</span>
...
The extracted message is:
#: myapp/templates/mytemplate.pt:8
msgid "${name} was born in ${country}."
msgstr ""
No extra space. And the translation works.
