Helpers to allow saving multiple Globalize3 translations in the same request
= Batch translation
Helper that renders globalize_translations fields on a per-locale basis, so you can use them separately in the same form and still saving them all at once in the same request.
== Installation
Batch translation supports Globalize 3 and is not backward compatible.
rails plugin install git://github.com/fidel/batch_translations.git
== Model configuration
In model, which uses Globalize after definition
translates :title, :teaser, :body # or any other fields, which you translate
place
accepts_nested_attributes_for :translations
so it'll look like
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base translates :title, :teaser, :body accepts_nested_attributes_for :translations end
It's necessary for proper working.
== Usage
Now, use it in your view file, like in these below:
Editing post
<% form_for(@post) do |f| %> <%= f.error_messages %>
<h2>English (default locale)</h2>
<p><%= f.text_field :title %></p>
<p><%= f.text_field :teaser %></p>
<p><%= f.text_field :body %></p>
<hr/>
<h2>Spanish translation</h2>
<% f.globalize_fields_for :es do |g| %>
<p><%= g.text_field :title %></p>
<p><%= g.text_field :teaser %></p>
<p><%= g.text_field :body %></p>
<% end %>
<hr/>
<h2>French translation</h2>
<% f.globalize_fields_for :fr do |g| %>
<p><%= g.text_field :title %></p>
<p><%= g.text_field :teaser %></p>
<p><%= g.text_field :body %></p>
<% end %>
<%= f.submit "Save" %>
<% end %>
