In my application, I have a dictionary of phrases that are used throughout of the application. This same dictionary is used to create PDFs and Excel Spreadsheets.
The dictionary looks like so:
GLOBAL_MRD_VOCAB = {
'fiscal_year': _('Fiscal Year'),
'region': _('Region / Focal Area'),
'prepared_by': _('Preparer Name'),
'review_cycle':_('Review Period'),
... snip ...
}
In the code to produce the PDF, I have:
fy = dashboard_v.fiscal_year
fy_label = GLOBAL_MRD_VOCAB['fiscal_year']
rg = dashboard_v.dashboard.region
rg_label = GLOBAL_MRD_VOCAB['region']
rc = dashboard_v.review_cycle
rc_label = GLOBAL_MRD_VOCAB['review_cycle']
pb = dashboard_v.prepared_by
pb_label = GLOBAL_MRD_VOCAB['prepared_by']
Now, when the PDF is produced, in the PDF, I don't see these labels but rather, I see:
<django.utils.functional.__proxy__ object at 0x10106fdd0>
Can somebody help me with this? How do I get the properly translated labels?
Thanks
Eric
