Django应用程序中模型的国际化

Question

My application will be available in two languages: english and german. The application will have a couple of XType objects with a description field. How can I translate the description field of XType? Does Django provide support for this or I will have to use another Django application?

class XType(models.Model):
    description = models.CharField(max_length=50)  
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.description

class X(models.Model):
    type = models.ForeignKey(XType)

Answer 1

Django does not provide direct support of model field translations.

You have to find a way to deal with it either within Django or via plugable applications (like posted already django-easymode or check http://blog.muhuk.com/2010/01/06/dynamic-translation-apps-for-django.html ).

If you want to deal within your app with it you might want to try something like saving one instance per language and then filter accordingly when retrieving data:

class XType(models.Model):
    language = models.CharField(max_length=5)
    description = models.CharField(max_length=50) 

Depends of course a lot on your project needs.

Answer 2

django-easymode includes the @i18n decorator , which may solve your case:

At times it becomes a requirement to translate models. Django supports internationalization of static text in templates and code by means of gettext. For translation of models - dynamic data - easymode offers simple decorators to enable internationalized model fields and localized admin classes.
