Question

I am developing a Sinatra based web-app using the Sinatra r18n internationalisation system.

My ./i18n/en.yml r18n translation file contains the following:

season:
  summer:  !!pl
    0: no Summers
    1: one Summer
    n: "%1 Summers"
  autumn: !!pl
    0: no Autumns
    1: one Autumn
    n: "%1 Autumns"
  winter: !!pl
    0: no Winters
    1: one Winter
    n: "%1 Winters"
  spring: !!pl
    0: no Springs
    1: one Spring
    n: "%1 Springs"

In my code I can easily access "Total: #{t.season.summer season_count}." but I’m having trouble trying to access my season names programatically.

s = t.season[season_name] returns a Translation object.

I’ve looked at the source for a Translation however and can’t see the obvious way I’d generate my translated text from that Translation and a number.

Answer 1

You get Translation, because you don’t send count to season[season_name], so R18n return subhash. Just use:

s = t.season[season_name, season_count]
