Views contain semi localized elements

[manuelvanrijn]

We are running our rails app with the locale nl and I noticed that the date/time helpers are using the I18n translations, but the main part of mission control is "hard-coded" English.

This results in texts like 22 minuten ago where the 22 minuten is 🇳🇱Dutch and ago is 🇺🇸English.

Solutions

1. Quick: Set it to English

I think the easiest way would be to set the I18n.locale to :en on a before_action (or around_action) on the ApplicationController. That way, only the Mission Control controllers will use the en locale.

2. Big: Translate all the strings!

Introduce a fully translated Rails engine :)

I'd love to create a PR for the quick one unless people think it would really benefit to introduce the localized Rails engine variant.

Ooh, great catch, and great report too! Dankjewel 🙏

Please do! ❤️ That'd be super helpful. I don't think it's worth translating all the strings at this point.
