Rails-ShortI18n.md

Pattern: Invalid I18n method name

Issue: -

Description

This rule enforces that short forms of I18n methods are used: t instead of translate and l instead of localize.

This rule has two different enforcement modes. When the EnforcedStyle is conservative (the default) then only I18n.translate and I18n.localize calls are added as offenses.

When the EnforcedStyle is aggressive then all translate and localize calls without a receiver are added as offenses.

Examples

# bad
I18n.translate :key
I18n.localize Time.now

# good
I18n.t :key
I18n.l Time.now

EnforcedStyle: conservative (default)

# good
translate :key
localize Time.now
t :key
l Time.now

EnforcedStyle: aggressive

# bad
translate :key
localize Time.now

# good
t :key
l Time.now
