#4273 ✓invalid

autosave error messages cannot be translated (i18n)

Reported by Raffael Schmid | March 26th, 2010 @ 12:05 PM

This seems to be similar to #3147.

ActiveRecord::Schema.define do
  create_table(:owners) { |o| o.string :username }
  create_table(:items)  { |i| i.string :property }
end

class Owner < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_one :item, :autosave => true
  validates_presence_of :username
end

class Item < ActiveRecord::Base
  validates_presence_of :property
end

I18n.backend.store_translations :en, :"activerecord.attributes.item.property" => "Testing1"

owner = Owner.new
owner.build_item
owner.valid?
owner.errors.full_messages

item = Item.create
item.errors.full_messages

This code above will result in
["Item property can't be blank", "Username can't be blank"] and
["Testing1 can't be blank"]

The first output is not as expected. It should be like ["Testing1 can't be blank", "Username can't be blank"].

With the following patch, it works as expected.

Maybe there is a better fix, but this works for my project.

    • Title changed from “nested attributes error messages cannot be looked up” to “autosave error messages cannot be translated (i18n)”

    Sorry, patch works for my test in the description but not in my rails-project.

    Following patch works for both.

    • State changed from “new” to “invalid”

    You need to have the translation under "activerecord.attributes.item.property" and "activerecord.attributes.owner.item.property". You can use a symbol to symlink translations (check I18n documentation for more information). Notice that we cannot rely on constantize, since it would fail in some cases like:

    has_many :super_projects, :class_name => "Project"
