How to get list of available accessors?

[alec-c4]

Hi!
Is there any method to get list of all available translation accessors, something like globalize_attribute_names from globalize gem?

[alec-c4]

of course I can use something like

I18n.available_locales.each {|l| "name_#{l.to_s}"}

or

I18n.available_locales.each {|l| ClassName.mobility_attributes.each { |a| puts [a.to_s,l.to_s].join("_")}}

but it look ugly :(

Unfortunately there is no clean way to do this right now. The accessors are defined here:

mobility/lib/mobility/plugins/locale_accessors.rb

Line 57 in 97dea40

def #{name}_#{normalized_locale}(options = {})

There's nothing actually tracking their names once the methods have been defined.

That is something that I extensively use, I would love to see that implemented

Hmm I'm not sure. You can do this with something like:

module I18nLocaleAccessors
  def locale_accessor_names
    mobility_attributes.flat_map do |name|
      Mobility.available_locales.map do |locale|
        "#{name}_#{Mobility.normalize_locale(locale)}"
      end
    end
  end
end

Then just extend I18nLocaleAccessors from your model classes, or to make it global just:

class ApplicationRecord < ActiveRecord::Base
  # ...
  extend I18nLocaleAccessors
end

Since it's quite simple to implement, I'm not really inclined to add it to the plugin unless there are others asking for it.

That said, the way of calculating the names above is a bit inefficient... 🤔

We use it too at MaMpf and came here migrating from globalize & globalize-accessors. Thanks for your suggested solution, shioyama.

If anyone wonders how this change could look like in production-code, here are the changes I just made to our codebase.
