Rails date_field翻译

Question

I'm trying to find a way to translate the headers of the rails date_field.

<%= form_for @foo do |f| %>
   <%= f.date_field :startdate %>
<% end %>

I allready have my swedish locale and it works when outputting things in the view (eg: I18n.localize(@startdate, format: "%a %e %b")), but I can't find anywhere how to translate the date helper.

I'm on Rails 4.

Answer 1

该格式由浏览器处理，因为f.date_field生成HTML5 <input type="date" ... >标记，并且根据此问题 ，浏览器尚不支持自定义格式。

Answer 2

If you need a translated version, skip the date field and use jquery datepicker:
