Can someone help me with m Django localization?
- by alex
I have a template with has text in it. It's located in /templates under my project directory.
I'm trying to do Japanese now. I create a directory called "locale" in my project directory. Then, I set up this in my settings:
gettext = lambda s: s
LANGUAGES = (
('de', gettext('German')),
('en', gettext('English')),
('ja', gettext('Japanese')),
)
After that, I run this command: django-admin.py makemessages -l ja
The only problem is, this doesn't work! In my locale/ja/LC_MESSAGES/django.po:
Isn't it supposed to scan my templates with .html extension and grab all the strings?
