lib/i18n/locale/fallbacks.rb



# Locale Fallbacks
#
# Extends the I18n module to hold a fallbacks instance which is set to an
# instance of I18n::Locale::Fallbacks by default but can be swapped with a
# different implementation.
#
# Locale fallbacks will compute a number of fallback locales for a given locale.
# For example:
#
# <pre><code>
# I18n.fallbacks[:"es-MX"] # => [:"es-MX", :es, :en] </code></pre>
#
# Locale fallbacks always fall back to
#
#   * all parent locales of a given locale (e.g. :es for :"es-MX") first,
#   * the current default locales and all of their parents second
#
# The default locales are set to [I18n.default_locale] by default but can be
# set to something else.
#
# One can additionally add any number of additional fallback locales manually.
# These will be added before the default locales to the fallback chain. For
# example:
#
#   # using the default locale as default fallback locale
#
#   I18n.default_locale = :"en-US"
#   I18n.fallbacks = I18n::Fallbacks.new(:"de-AT" => :"de-DE")
#   I18n.fallbacks[:"de-AT"] # => [:"de-AT", :"de-DE", :de, :"en-US", :en]
#
#   # using a custom locale as default fallback locale
#
#   I18n.fallbacks = I18n::Fallbacks.new(:"en-GB", :"de-AT" => :de, :"de-CH" => :de)
#   I18n.fallbacks[:"de-AT"] # => [:"de-AT", :de, :"en-GB", :en]
#   I18n.fallbacks[:"de-CH"] # => [:"de-CH", :de, :"en-GB", :en]
#
#   # mapping fallbacks to an existing instance
#
#   # people speaking Catalan also speak Spanish as spoken in Spain
#   fallbacks = I18n.fallbacks
#   fallbacks.map(:ca => :"es-ES")
#   fallbacks[:ca] # => [:ca, :"es-ES", :es, :"en-US", :en]
#
#   # people speaking Arabian as spoken in Palestine also speak Hebrew as spoken in Israel
#   fallbacks.map(:"ar-PS" => :"he-IL")
#   fallbacks[:"ar-PS"] # => [:"ar-PS", :ar, :"he-IL", :he, :"en-US", :en]
#   fallbacks[:"ar-EG"] # => [:"ar-EG", :ar, :"en-US", :en]
#
#   # people speaking Sami as spoken in Finnland also speak Swedish and Finnish as spoken in Finnland
#   fallbacks.map(:sms => [:"se-FI", :"fi-FI"])
#   fallbacks[:sms] # => [:sms, :"se-FI", :se, :"fi-FI", :fi, :"en-US", :en]
