ParsiLocalize ============= Enhance I18n localize to use Parsi digits and Jalaly dates in Farsi (فارسی) locale. For changing digits in string/integer/float with Unicode Parsi ones, we use [`parsi-digits`](https://github.com/hzamani/parsi-digits): require 'parsi-localize' I18n.l ‪‪"15,000 تومان" => ‫‫"۱۵,۰۰۰ تومان" Another useful feature of `parsi-digits` is that you can parse strings with Unicode digits to numerics: "۱۲۳۴۵".to_i => 12345 "۱۹/۸".to_f => 19.8 To have a real localization of dates in I18n#localize (converting them to Jalali date), we uses [`parsi-date`](https://github.com/hzamani/parsi-date): I18n.l Time.now, fromat: "%y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S" => "۹۰/۱۰/۱۳ ۰۵:۴۳:۳۲" As you know, date and time formats can be stored in the locale file. For example with fa: time: formats: default: "%y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S" short: "%d %B، %H:%M" long: "%A، %e %B %Y، ساعت %H:%M:%S" date: formats: default: "%y/%m/%d" short: "%d %B" long: "%A، %e %B %Y" in your locale file, you will get: date = Date.today I18n.l date => ‫"۹۰/۱۱/۱۶" I18n.l date, format: :short => ‫"۱۶ بهمن" I18n.l date, format: :long => ‫"یک‌شنبه، ۱۶ بهمن ۱۳۹۰" time = Time.now I18n.l time => "۹۰/۱۱/۱۶ ۱۵:۴۳:۳۰" I18n.l time, format: :short => ‫"۱۶ بهمن، ۱۵:۴۳" I18n.l time, format: :long => ‫"یک‌شنبه، ۱۶ بهمن ۱۳۹۰، ساعت ۱۵:۴۳:۳۰" For more info on date formating see `parsi-date` and Ruby's built-in `date` docs.
