# ActiveRecord::Errors::Localize Localize & Customize ActiveRecord Error messages to show user. ## Motivation In default, [ActiveRecord Errors can not be localized](https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/35147) other than [ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid](https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/activerecord/lib/active_record/validations.rb#L22) ```ruby begin User.find(0) rescue ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound => e p(e.message) # => "Couldn't find User with 'id'=0" This message is static and can not change and localize end ``` Most of cases, it's no problem ActiveRecord Error messages are only english, but in some cases like error handler below, it needs localization. ```ruby module ErrorHandler extend ActiveSupport::Concern included do # ... other rescue_from rescue_from ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound do |e| # this error message is showed to user, need to localize. render json: { error_message: e.message }, status: :not_found end # ... end end ``` By using this gem, you can use solve this problem in simple way :) ## Installation Add this line to your application's Gemfile: ```ruby gem 'active_record-errors-localize' ``` And then execute: $ bundle Or install it yourself as: $ gem install active_record-errors-localize ## Usage First, add localization data to i18n localization file. Add key of {lang}.activerecord.errors.messges.{underscored_error_class_name} Customize example ```yaml:en.yaml en: activerecord: models: user: User errors: messages: record_not_found: "Sorry, We can't find your %{model} ID: %{id} PrimaryKey: %{primary_key}" # => Sorry, We can't find your User ID: 1 PrimaryKey: id record_not_saved: "%{record} is not saved reason: %{errors}" # => User is not saved reason: xxxxx record_not_destroyed: "%{record} is not deleted reason: %{errors}" # => User is not deleted reason: yyyyy ``` Localize example ```yaml:ja.yaml ja: activerecord: models: user: ユーザー errors: messages: record_not_found: "%{model}が見つかりません。" #=> ユーザーが見つかりません。 record_not_saved: "%{record}が保存されませんでした。" #=> ユーザーが保存されませんでした。 record_not_destroyed: "%{record}が削除されませんでした。" #=> ユーザーが削除されませんでした。 ``` Now, you can use #i18n_message method like this. ```ruby # Need to write using cuz implemented by refinements using ActiveRecord::Errors::Localize begin User.find(0) rescue ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound => e # Can get localized message by #i18n_message p(e.i18n_message) # => "ユーザーが見つかりません。" end ``` You can see more practical error handler usage in [this example](https://github.com/kazuooooo/active_record-errors-localize/blob/master/examples/error_handler.rb) ## Development After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment. To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org). ## Contributing Bug reports and pull requests are welcome on GitHub at https://github.com/[USERNAME]/active_record-errors-localize.
