Okrand
Okrand is an internationalization/translation tool for Django.
It is a pure Python program so doesn’t rely on gettext.
Okrand will respect your .gitignore.
Django models
Okrand can upgrade Django models so translation is much easier. You don’t need to write verbose_name anymore! And if you do write them Okrand will upgrade raw strings to gettext_lazy.
Turn this feature on in your setup.cfg:
[tool:okrand]
django_model_upgrade=1
django_model_prefixes=
your_package.So concretely this model:
from django.utils.translation import gettext_lazy as _
class Book(Model):
name = CharField(verbose_name=_('name'))
isbn = CharField(verbose_name=_('ISBN'))
class Meta:
verbose_name = _('book')
verbose_name = _('books')Can now be changed to the more natural:
class Book(Model):
name = CharField()
isbn = CharField(verbose_name='ISBN')Note that you don’t need to wrap the verbose_name in a gettext_lazy call anymore.
Installation
First pip install okrand, then add okrand to INSTALLED_APPS.
Add OKRAND_STATIC_PATH to settings, pointing to where Okrand should write the JavaScript catalog files. Typically something like:
OKRAND_STATIC_PATH = Path(BASE_DIR) / 'yourproject' / 'base' / 'static'If you have a base app to put common stuff.
Configuration
In setup.cfg you set:
additional ignore rules beyond .gitignore. These are regexes for the full path.
sorting: none (default), alphabetical
if the django model upgrade is enabled
custom collector functions
turn off rename support
[tool:okrand]
ignore=
.*some_annoying_path.*
sort=alphabetical
django_model_upgrade=1
django_model_prefixes=
some_app.
another_app.
