I have some existing project, But when I tried to use modeltranslation it generated an empty field for the model. After that, I tried modeltranslation command to fill out an empty field but it simply populated the empty field with original data, not with a translated version of original data.
@last-partizan is something that I am missing out.
I don't know why the translated version of the original data doesn't add up to the newly generated fields.
@last-partizan How can I get out from this problem.
@last-partizan , How can I use the field that I was using before the modeltranslation.
For example,
In setting.py, I have defined the following thing,
LANGUAGES = (
('hi', gettext('Hindi')), )
So after this my templates are showing 'hi' fields,
for example, they are showing the content of 'title_hi', but I want to show 'title' content, not 'title_hi', how can I do this?
I don't want the '_hi' should overtake my original content.
Hi @last-partizan ,
I have some queries related to the django-rest-framework method integration with django-modeltranslation.
def get_queryset(self):
user_language = self.request.GET.get('language')
return Model.objects.get_language(user_language).all()For example, can I get particular language data similar to this '?language=en'?
@vishal2612200 hi
django-modeltranslation uses current language from django, i suppose it's better to use something like LocaleMiddleware
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/ref/middleware/#module-django.middleware.locale
or if you want direct approach, something like this:
def list(self, request, ...):
lang = ...
with translation.activate(lang):
return super().list(request, ...)
A: Using base class, like "TranslatableModel" for all your translated models.
>>> from django.utils import translation
>>> from blog.models import Post
>>> translation.get_language()
'sl'
>>> post_slo = Post.objects.create(title='Slo')
>>> translation.activate('en')
>>> translation.get_language()
'en'
>>> post_eng = Post.objects.create(title='Eng')
>>> translation.activate('sl')
>>> p = Post.objects.values('title', 'title_sl', 'title_en')
>>> p
<MultilingualQuerySet [{'title_sl': 'Slo', 'title_en': None, 'title': 'Slo'}, {'title_sl': None, 'title_en': 'Eng', 'title': 'Eng'}]>
>>> p = Post.objects.filter(title__startswith='Sl').values('title', 'title_en', 'title_sl')
>>> p
<MultilingualQuerySet [{'title_sl': 'Slo', 'title_en': None, 'title': 'Slo'}]>
>>> translation.activate('en')
>>> p = Post.objects.values('title', 'title_sl', 'title_en')
>>> p
<MultilingualQuerySet [{'title_sl': 'Slo', 'title_en': None, 'title': 'Slo'}, {'title_sl': None, 'title_en': 'Eng', 'title': 'Eng'}]>
>>> p = Post.objects.filter(title__startswith='Sl').values('title', 'title_en', 'title_sl')
>>> p
<MultilingualQuerySet []>
>>> translation.activate('sl')
>>> p = Post.objects.filter(title__startswith='En').values('title', 'title_en', 'title_sl')
>>> p
<MultilingualQuerySet []>
serializer = self.get_serializer(
data=queryset, many=False, context={"lang": language}
){'non_field_errors': [ErrorDetail(string='Invalid data. Expected a dictionary, but got MultilingualQuerySet.', code='invalid')]}serializer = self.get_serializer(
data=queryset, many=True, context={"lang": language}
){'non_field_errors': [ErrorDetail(string='Expected a list of items but got type "MultilingualQuerySet".', code='not_a_list')]}data.
data is for input data, like list of items
serializer = self.get_serializer(queryset, many=True) should work
serializer = self.get_serializer(
queryset,
many=True,
context={"lang": language},
)
is work, thanks
Now I get all field from table
