# Returns a string of option tags that have been compiled by iterating over the +collection+ and assigning the
# the result of a call to the +value_method+ as the option value and the +text_method+ as the option text.
# Example:
# options_from_collection_for_select(@people, 'id', 'name')
# This will output the same HTML as if you did this:
# <option value="#{person.id}">#{person.name}</option>
#
# This is more often than not used inside a #select_tag like this example:
# select_tag 'person', options_from_collection_for_select(@people, 'id', 'name')
#
# If +selected+ is specified, the element returning a match on +value_method+ will get the selected option tag.
#
# Example (call, result). Imagine a loop iterating over each +person+ in <tt>@project.people</tt> to generate an input tag:
# options_from_collection_for_select(@project.people, "id", "name")
# <option value="#{person.id}">#{person.name}</option>
#
# NOTE: Only the option tags are returned, you have to wrap this call in a regular HTML select tag.
# Be sure to specify the same class as the +value_method+ when specifying a selected option.
# Failure to do this will produce undesired results. Example:
# options_from_collection_for_select(@people, 'id', 'name', '1')
# Will not select a person with the id of 1 because 1 (an Integer) is not the same as '1' (a string)
# options_from_collection_for_select(@people, 'id', 'name', 1)
# should produce the desired results.

You can specify validations that will be beformed every time a object is saved, just when you're creating a new record or when you're updating an existing one.
CAUTION: There are four methods that when called will trigger validation: +save+, +save!+, +update_attributes+ and +update_attributes!+. There is one method left, which is +update_attribute+. This method will update the value of an attribute without triggering any validation, so be careful when using +update_attribute+, since it can let you save your objects in an invalid state.

=== Configure the I18n module
First of all you want to tell the I18n library where it can find your custom translation files. You might also want to set your default locale to something else than English.
Rails will wire up all required settings for you with sane defaults. If you need different settings you can overwrite them easily.
You can pick whatever directory and translation file naming scheme makes sense for you. The simplest thing possible is probably to put the following into an initializer:
The I18n library will use English (:en) as a *default locale* by default. I.e if you don't set a different locale, :en will be used for looking up translations. Also, Rails adds all files from config/locales/*.rb,yml to your translations load path.
The *translations load path* (I18n.load_path) is just a Ruby Array of paths to your translation files that will be loaded automatically and available in your application. You can pick whatever directory and translation file naming scheme makes sense for you.
(Hint: The backend will lazy-load these translations when a translation is looked up for the first time. This makes it possible to just swap the backend with something else even after translations have already been announced.)
The default environment.rb says:
[source, ruby]
-------------------------------------------------------
# The internationalization framework can be changed
# to have another default locale (standard is :en) or more load paths.
# All files from config/locales/*.rb,yml are added automatically.
# config.i18n.load_path << Dir[File.join(RAILS_ROOT, 'my', 'locales', '*.{rb,yml}')]
# config.i18n.default_locale = :de
-------------------------------------------------------
=== Optional: custom I18n configuration setup
For the sake of completeness let's mention that if you do not want to use the environment for some reason you can always wire up things manually, too.
To tell the I18n library where it can find your custom translation files you can specify the load path anywhere in your application - just make sure it gets run before any translations are actually looked up. You might also want to change the default locale. The simplest thing possible is to put the following into an initializer:

By default the I18n library will use :en (English) as a I18n.default_locale for looking up translations (if you do not specify a locale for a lookup).

NOTE You need to restart the server when you add new locale files.
=== Adding Date/Time formats
Ok, let's add a timestamp to the view so we can demo the date/time localization feature as well. To localize the time format you pass the Time object to I18n.l or (preferably) use Rails' #l helper. You can pick a format by passing the :format option, by default the :default format is used.
[source, ruby]
-------------------------------------------------------
I18n.t 'store.title'
I18n.l Time.now
# app/views/home/index.html.erb
<h1><%=t :hello_world %></h1>
<p><%= flash[:notice] %></p
<p><%= l Time.now, :format => :short %></p>
-------------------------------------------------------
And in our pirate translations file let's add a time format (it's already there in Rails' defaults for English):
[source, ruby]
-------------------------------------------------------
# config/locale/pirate.yml
pirate:
time:
formats:
short: "arrrround %H'ish"

So that would give you:

=== Interpolation
TODO explain what this is good for
In many cases you want to abstract your translations so that variables can be interpolated into the translation. For this reason the I18n API provides an interpolation feature.
All options besides :default and :scope that are passed to #translate will be interpolated to the translation:
[source, ruby]
-------------------------------------------------------
I18n.backend.store_translations 'en', :thanks => 'Thanks {{name}}!'
I18n.backend.store_translations :en, :thanks => 'Thanks {{name}}!'

# => 'Thanks Jeremy!'
-------------------------------------------------------
If a translation uses :default or :scope as a interpolation variable an I18n::ReservedInterpolationKey exception is raised. If a translation expects an interpolation variable but it has not been passed to #translate an I18n::MissingInterpolationArgument exception is raised.
=== Pluralization
TODO explain what this is good for
In English there's only a singular and a plural form for a given string, e.g. "1 message" and "2 messages". Other languages (http://www.unicode.org/cldr/data/charts/supplemental/language_plural_rules.html#ar[Arabic], http://www.unicode.org/cldr/data/charts/supplemental/language_plural_rules.html#ja[Japanese], http://www.unicode.org/cldr/data/charts/supplemental/language_plural_rules.html#ru[Russian] and many more) have different grammars that have additional or less http://www.unicode.org/cldr/data/charts/supplemental/language_plural_rules.html[plural forms]. Thus, the I18n API provides a flexible pluralization feature.
The :count interpolation variable has a special role in that it both is interpolated to the translation and used to pick a pluralization from the translations according to the pluralization rules defined by CLDR:

For several reasons the shipped Simple backend only does the "simplest thing that ever could work" _for Ruby on Rails_ (1) ... which means that it is only guaranteed to work for English and, as a side effect, languages that are very similar to English. Also, the simple backend is only capable of reading translations but can not dynamically store them to any format.

That does not mean you're stuck with these limitations though. The Ruby I18n gem makes it very easy to exchange the Simple backend implementation with something else that fits better for your needs. E.g. you could exchange it with Globalize's Static backend:

TODO expand this ...? list some backends and their features?
=== Using different exception handlers
TODO
The I18n API defines the following exceptions that will be raised by backends when the corresponding unexpected conditions occur:
* Explain what exceptions are raised and why we are using exceptions for communication from backend to frontend.
* Explain the default behaviour.
* Explain the :raise option
[source, ruby]
-------------------------------------------------------
MissingTranslationData # no translation was found for the requested key
InvalidLocale # the locale set to I18n.locale is invalid (e.g. nil)
InvalidPluralizationData # a count option was passed but the translation data is not suitable for pluralization
MissingInterpolationArgument # the translation expects an interpolation argument that has not been passed
ReservedInterpolationKey # the translation contains a reserved interpolation variable name (i.e. one of: scope, default)
UnknownFileType # the backend does not know how to handle a file type that was added to I18n.load_path
-------------------------------------------------------
* Example 1: the Rails #t helper uses a custom exception handler that catches I18n::MissingTranslationData and wraps the message into a span with the CSS class "translation_missing"
* Example 2: for tests you might want a handler that just raises all exceptions all the time
* Example 3: a handler
The I18n API will catch all of these exceptions when they were thrown in the backend and pass them to the default_exception_handler method. This method will re-raise all exceptions except for MissingTranslationData exceptions. When a MissingTranslationData exception has been caught it will return the exception’s error message string containing the missing key/scope.
The reason for this is that during development you'd usually want your views to still render even though a translation is missing.
In other contexts you might want to change this behaviour though. E.g. the default exception handling does not allow to catch missing translations during automated tests easily. For this purpose a different exception handler can be specified. The specified exception handler must be a method on the I18n module:
[source, ruby]
-------------------------------------------------------
module I18n
def just_raise_that_exception(*args)
raise args.first
end
end
I18n.exception_handler = :just_raise_that_exception
-------------------------------------------------------
This would re-raise all caught exceptions including MissingTranslationData.
Another example where the default behaviour is less desirable is the Rails TranslationHelper which provides the method #t (as well as #translate). When a MissingTranslationData exception occurs in this context the helper wraps the message into a span with the css class translation_missing.
To do so the helper forces I18n#translate to raise exceptions no matter what exception handler is defined by setting the :raise option:
[source, ruby]
-------------------------------------------------------
I18n.t :foo, :raise => true # always re-raises exceptions from the backend
-------------------------------------------------------

(1) One of these reasons is that we don't want to any unnecessary load for applications that do not need any I18n capabilities, so we need to keep the I18n library as simple as possible for English. Another reason is that it is virtually impossible to implement a one-fits-all solution for all problems related to I18n for all existing languages. So a solution that allows us to exchange the entire implementation easily is appropriate anyway. This also makes it much easier to experiment with custom features and extensions.
[[[1]]] Or, to quote http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internationalization_and_localization[Wikipedia]: _"Internationalization is the process of designing a software application so that it can be adapted to various languages and regions without engineering changes. Localization is the process of adapting software for a specific region or language by adding locale-specific components and translating text."_
(2) Other backends might allow or require to use other formats, e.g. a GetText backend might allow to read GetText files.
