KID template i18n

[Diez B. Roggisch]

Hi,

I'm having troubles bringing i18n with KID up and running. Well, actually it
is up and running, but doesn't do anything. The

tg-admin i18n collect

processes my template properly, at least it doesn't complain. But there are no
strings created that reflect text in my templates.

But even when I add them - and turn on the filter of course - nothing happens.

Any suggestions? I'm on TG 1.0b1.

I investigated the i18n command, and it appears that only those parts of a KID
template that are surrounded by

${_()}

are supposed to work. And that is clearly in violation to the i18n-docs:

"""
Handling text strings in Kid templates is somewhat easier. If you set the
cherrypy configuration setting i18n.run_template_filter to True, all text
inside your Kid templates will be passed through _() automatically. The user
locale (see below) can be overriden in your template by using the lang
attribute. For example:
"""

So - it seems that stuff is somewhat non-working. I'd be willing to put some
effort into it, my primary concern is the automatic filtering: I've found a
bit of configuration file handling in

turbogears/view/base.py

but no actual filter. Is this part of KID itself, or is this thing just
missing? Any pointers?

Ok, I dug further, and it appears that at least the filtering won't work, for
the same reason Ksenia Marasanova already found out:

http://groups.google.com/group/turbogears-trunk/browse_thread/thread/eb8bfd02311e43db/c9da916d45b17565

Undoing the mentionend changeset did the trick for the filtering for me.

And I also made the i18n-command work, but it will collect a great deal of
stuff now - especially all the KID-commands. I'll see if I can enhance it.

Great work! I'd definitely be very interested to know when/if you
ever get the KID pages to render in a different language.
