Paperclip I18n call to arms

Posted: July 22nd, 2009 | Author: Josh Kalderimis | Filed under: Ruby | Tags: , , | 3 Comments »

Paperclip is a fantastic library used by many many many developers, its github project page shows 1500 watchers but I have a feeling even more than that use the plugin in some shape or form.

The one thing that has been missing for me is proper I18n support and not basic interpolations using the :message option. I recently chanced upon an issue in the github issues registry (#14) which included a fork that implemented a basic version of I18n support but did not go far enough in my opinion. So after taking some advice from validates_timeliness, I have created a fork with goes a little bit further and adds two new messages for the attachment size.

The only thing now is to get some support for this fork so it gets patched into paperclip.

So without further ado, please support this change by leaving a message in the google group thread regarding this change:

Google Group Message – I18n changes and additions

And voting for this issue to be resolved:

Github Issue – Support for I18n

Also, if you have any questions, comments or advice regarding the fork, please don’t hesitate to leave a message below.
