[Plone-developers] Translating plone.app.querystring registry entries

[Eric Steele]

As a part of (4.2 blocker) https://dev.plone.org/ticket/12377, we need to translate the criteria dropdowns. The values for each field are stored in the registry thusly:

    <records interface="plone.app.querystring.interfaces.IQueryOperation"

             prefix="plone.app.querystring.operation.date.between">

        <value key="title">Between dates</value>

        <value key="description">Please use YYYY/MM/DD.</value>

        <value key="operation">plone.app.querystring.queryparser._between</value>

        <value key="widget">DateRangeWidget</value>

    </records>

What are our options for turning this into something we can properly translate?

I added support for i18n:translate in the plone.app.registry import handler and added (empty) i18n:translate attributes to the relevant records in plone.app.querystring's registry.xml. I think that should take care of it.

We probably need an upgrade step for instances that already have an older plone.app.querystring.

Translating the strings on the way into the persistent registry seems
like it might be the wrong approach here some sites use multiple
languages. Shouldn't the terms be translated on the way out instead?

I think you misunderstood. zope.i18nmessageid Messages are stored when
the records are imported, but not translated then. They are not
translated until they make it into a template or are manually translated
using zope.i18n.translate
