Localization files top element about rails HOT 5 CLOSED

That should have been recently fixed. Thanks for the feedback!

Hi @ChillyFlashER,

I don't understand the issue.

Are you talking about the top element in the YAML file? Which on, translation.*.yml or localization.*.yml?

The top element should be the same as the languages you defined in the config/translation.rb file.

Could you be more specific about your issue and paste some snipped of your configuration and problematic YAML files?

(Sorry for the delay, I'll try to be more reactive from now)

Hi,

When we first setup new languages the top element in the YAML file the header didn't match the language code.

This was a while ago and I haven't tried it again. It might just have been something to do with our first setup that went wrong or something similar.

So when we generated new files for languages like da-DK it produced a file like this.

## Source: config/locales/localization.da-DK.yml
# THIS FILE CONTAINS LOCALIZATION KEYS : date and number formats, number precisions,
# number separators and all non-textual values depending on the language.
# These values must not reach the translator, so they are separated in this file.
#
# More info here: https://translation.io/blog/gettext-is-better-than-rails-i18n#localization
#
# You can edit and/or add new localization keys here, they won't be touched by Translation.io.
#
# If you want to add a new localization key prefix, use the option described here:
# https://github.com/aurels/translation-gem#custom-localization-key-prefixes
#

da:
  ...

And the gem was looking for da-DK so it couldn't find the translations, we fixed it by manually changing all the keys of languages that has a dash in it.

Thanks @ChillyFlashER,

I understood the issue, I'll try to reproduce this error but it seems weird, it should definitely work as expected.

I'll keep you in touch.

I can confirm that you are absolutely right. It only impacts localization.xx.yml files (not translation.xx.yml files).

It still works quite good since "de-DE" fallbacks to "de" and "da-DK" fallbacks to "da". But I need to fix this. Thanks a lot!
