Rails::Pseudoloc

Provides automated pseudolocalization to Ruby on Rails applications.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rails-pseudoloc'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rails-pseudoloc

Usage

Rails 4

Create an initializer under config/initializers that looks like this:

if ENV['PSEUDOLOC']
  require 'rails/pseudoloc'

  I18n.backend = Rails::Pseudoloc::Backend.new(I18n.backend)
end

Set the environment variable to turn on pseudoloc and then restart the Rails application. To turn it off, simply clear the environment variable and restart the Rails application.

Limitations

The gem currently does not pseudolocalize everything. Specifically it does not pseudolocalize anything that goes through the I18n#localize method or l helper. It also does not currently pseudolocalize strings consisting entirely of capital letters because I haven't gotten around to expanding out the translation table to include capital letters yet.
