# Provides ability to add the translations for the model using delegate pattern.
# Uses has_many association to the ModelNameTranslation.
#
# For example you have model Article with attributes title and text.
# You want that attributes title and text to be translated.
# For this reason you need to generate new model ArticleTranslation.
# In migration you need to add:
#
# create_table :article_translations do |t|
# t.references :article, :null => false
# t.string :locale, :length => 2, :null => false
# t.string :name, :null => false
# end
#
# add_index :articles, [:article_id, :locale], :unique => true, :name => 'unique_locale_for_article_id'
#
# And in the Article model:
#
# translations :title, :text
#
# This will adds:
#
# * named_scope (translated) and has_many association to the Article model
# * locale presence validation to the ArticleTranslation model.
#
# Notice: if you want to have validates_presence_of :article, you should use :inverse_of.
# Support this by yourself. Better is always to use artile.translations.build() method.
#
# ===
#
# You also can pass attributes and options to the translations class method:
#
# translations :title, :text, :fallback => true, :writer => true, :nil => nil
#
# ===
#
# Configuration options:
#
# * :fallback - if translation for the current locale not found.
# By default false. Set to true if you want to use reader fallback.
# Uses algorithm of fallback:
# 0) current translation (using I18n.locale);
# 1) default locale (using I18n.default_locale);
# 2) first from translations association;
# 3) :nil value (see :nil configuration option)
# * :reader - add reader attributes to the model and delegate them
# to the translation model columns. Add's fallback if it is set to true.
# * :writer - add writer attributes to the model and assign them
# to the translation model attributes.
# * :nil - when reader cant find string, it returns by default an
# empty string. If you want to change this setting for example to nil,
# add :nil => nil
#
# ===
#
# When you are using :writer option, you can create translations using
# update_attributes method. For example:
#
# Article.create!
# Article.update_attributes(:title => 'title', :text => 'text')
#
# ===
#
# translated named_scope is useful when you want to find only those
# records that are translated to a specific locale.
# For example if you want to find all Articles that is translated to an english
# language, you can write: Article.translated(:en)
#
# has_translation?(locale) method, that returns true if object's model
# have a translation for a specified locale
#
# translation(locale) method finds translation with specified locale.
#
# all_translations method that returns all possible translations in
# ordered hash (useful when creating forms with nested attributes).
