Re: Internationalization with gettext

Same result with #silent: =

NotFound: cannot find '_'

I think this needs to be clarified, and an example needs to be added to
http://www.cheetahtemplate.org/docs/users_guide_html_multipage/tips.gettext.
html  =

Otherwise the internationalization feature  is practically useless to many
developers.

If you want to include arbitrary Python code try using #silent like this:

#import gettext
#silent t =3D gettext.translation('mymodule', '/home/alec/gettexttest',
('en-US',))
#silent _ =3D t.gettext
$_("This is some text")

That did not help.
Earlier, I also tried to define function _() like so:

#import gettext
#t =3D gettext.translation('mymodule', '/home/alec/gettexttest', ('en-US',))
#_ =3D t.gettext

This code works in a stand-alone .py file.
Cheetah however still does not find _() function, even with this code at the
top.

I've never used gettext with Cheetah but perhaps including a line like:
#from gettext import gettext as _

at the top of your template might help?

We're trying to translate our templates using Python's gettext module.

>From reading
http://www.cheetahtemplate.org/docs/users_guide_html_multipage/tips.gettext.
html
it appears that I need to mark text for translation like this:

$_("This text will be translated")
or like this
$ngettext("This text will be translated")

The templates with marked text compile. Running xgettext (or pygettext.py )
on the compiled template successfully creates the .pot files, but the files
does not contain the marked strings.

Also, running the template produces the following error:

=A0File
"/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Cheetah-2.4.4-py2.4-linux-i686.egg/C
heetah/NameMapper.py", line 246, in valueFromSearchList
=A0 =A0_raiseNotFoundException(key, searchList)
=A0File
"/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Cheetah-2.4.4-py2.4-linux-i686.egg/C
heetah/NameMapper.py", line 167, in _raiseNotFoundException
=A0 =A0raise NotFound(excString)
NotFound: cannot find '_'

which means it cannot find _() function.
Can anybody show me how to mark text for translation?

I am using Cheetah 2.4.4 for these tests. We have Cheetah 0.9.15 in
production, but I believe that 0.9.15 does not have gettext functionality at
all- is that correct?
