Click To Globalize: Rails 2.0 Ready

Posted by luca
on Friday, December 14

I have finished to work on Click To Globalize, to made it Rails 2.0 compatible.

What's Changed?

All and nothing: from the user point of view, the plugin has the same behaviors of the previous version. My recent activity was a refactoring, now it:

  • Works with CSRF Killer
  • Works with Prototype 1.6.0.1 and Scriptaculous 1.8.0.1
  • Works with rewritten version of Scriptaculous Ajax.InPlaceEditor
  • Works with new Prototype events handling
  • Uses new Prototype's Element#addMethods and Function#wrap to add methods and AOP
  • Uses Protoype Hash#get, instead of square brackets
  • Uses .html.erb as helper, instead of .rhtml
  • Has a more clean installation/disinstallation process
  • Has DRYed up tests
  • Hasn't prototype.js into the packaging

How To Use It?

Rails 2.0

Rails 1.2.x

    Hey Luca! I think this will be an amazing plugin. However, in order to make it work, I had to remove the namespace parameter in line 9 of click_to_globalize.rb, otherwise i got the error "wrong number of arguments". In my case, the strings to be translated had to be in a span/h1/etc... and not in a div or p element. Weird. Oh, will there be a restful version of click_to_globalize? The "map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'" in my routes looks a bit ugly. But anyways: great work!

    Hi Luca. Your plugin looks very interesting. Thanks for all the work. I would like to learn more about using click_to_globalize on Rails 2.0. Are your video tutorials available in another resolution? The text is very blurry for me. Any suggestions?

    Hi Luca! Your plugin looks really nice and very promising! I'm surely going to try it out! I would just like to report that the link to the Trac on the plugin website is broken, I got a 404 error. I also had trouble seeing the videos with that resolution. Would it be possible for you to post them in a bigger resolution? Maybe as a torrent file, I don't know. Thanks!

    Luca, the high resolution version of the Getting Started tutorial is excellent! Thank you very much for taking the time to produce this great resource.

    Your plugin is great but it does not allow to edit button value.
