django-parler
=============
Simple Django model translations without nasty hacks.
Features:
* Nice admin integration.
* Access translated attributes like regular attributes.
* Automatic fallback to the default language.
* Separate table for translated fields, compatible with django-hvad_.
* Plays nice with others, compatible with django-polymorphic_, django-mptt_ and such:
* No ORM query hacks.
* Easy to combine with custom Manager or QuerySet classes.
* Easy to construct the translations model manually when needed.
See the documentation_ for more details.
A brief overview
================
Installing django-parler
------------------------
The package can be installed using:
.. code-block:: bash
pip install django-parler
Add the following settings:
.. code-block:: python
INSTALLED_APPS += (
'parler',
)
Optionally, the admin tabs can be configured too:
.. code-block:: python
PARLER_LANGUAGES = {
None: (
{'code': 'en',},
{'code': 'en-us',},
{'code': 'it',},
{'code': 'nl',},
),
'default': {
'fallback': 'en', # defaults to PARLER_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE_CODE
'hide_untranslated': False, # the default; let .active_translations() return fallbacks too.
}
}
Replace ``None`` with the ``SITE_ID`` when you run a multi-site project with the sites framework.
Each ``SITE_ID`` can be added as additional entry in the dictionary.
Make sure your project is configured for multiple languages.
It might be useful to limit the ``LANGUAGES`` setting. For example:
.. code-block:: python
from django.utils.translation import gettext_lazy as _
LANGUAGE_CODE = 'en'
LANGUAGES = (
('en', _("English")),
('en-us', _("US English")),
('it', _('Italian')),
('nl', _('Dutch')),
('fr', _('French')),
('es', _('Spanish')),
)
By default, the fallback language is the same as ``LANGUAGE_CODE``.
The fallback language can be changed in the settings:
.. code-block:: python
PARLER_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE_CODE = 'en'
Creating models
---------------
Using the ``TranslatedFields`` wrapper, model fields can be marked as translatable:
.. code-block:: python
from django.db import models
from parler.models import TranslatableModel, TranslatedFields
class MyModel(TranslatableModel):
translations = TranslatedFields(
title = models.CharField(_("Title"), max_length=200)
)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.title
Accessing fields
----------------
Translatable fields can be used like regular fields:
.. code-block:: python
>>> object = MyModel.objects.all()[0]
>>> object.get_current_language()
'en'
>>> object.title
u'cheese omelet'
>>> object.set_current_language('fr') # Only switches
>>> object.title = "omelette du fromage" # Translation is created on demand.
>>> object.save()
Internally, django-parler stores the translated fields in a separate model, with one row per language.
Filtering translations
----------------------
To query translated fields, use the ``.translated()`` method:
.. code-block:: python
MyObject.objects.translated(title='cheese omelet')
To access objects in both the current and possibly the fallback language, use:
.. code-block:: python
MyObject.objects.active_translations(title='cheese omelet')
This returns objects in the languages which are considered "active", which are:
* The current language
* The fallback language when ``hide_untranslated=False`` in the ``PARLER_LANGUAGES`` setting.
Changing the language
---------------------
The queryset can be instructed to return objects in a specific language:
.. code-block:: python
>>> objects = MyModel.objects.language('fr').all()
>>> objects[0].title
u'omelette du fromage'
This only sets the language of the object.
By default, the current Django language is used.
Use ``object.get_current_language()`` and ``object.set_current_language()``
to change the language on individual objects.
There is a context manager to do this temporary:
.. code-block:: python
from parler.utils.context import switch_language
with switch_language(model, 'fr'):
print model.title
And a function to query just a specific field:
.. code-block:: python
model.safe_translation_getter('title', language_code='fr')
Advanced Features
-----------------
This package also includes:
* Creating the ``TranslatedFieldsModel`` manually!
* Form classes for inline support.
* View classes for switching languages, creating/updating translatable objects.
* Template tags for language switching-buttons.
* ORM methods to handle the translated fields.
* Admin inlines support.
See the documentation_ for more details.
Special notes
=============
* Using ``ModelAdmin.prepopulated_fields`` doesn't work, but you can use ``get_prepopulated_fields()`` as workaround.
* Due to `ORM restrictions <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/queries/#spanning-multi-valued-relationships>`_
queries for translated fields should be performed in a single ``.translated(..)`` or ``.active_translations(..)`` call.
* The ``.active_translations(..)`` method typically needs to ``.distinct()`` call to avoid duplicate results of the same object.
TODO
====
* The list code currently performs one query per object. This needs to be reduced.
* Preferably, the ``TranslatedField`` proxy on the model should behave like a ``RelatedField``,
if that would nicely with the ORM too.
Please contribute your improvements or work on these area's!
