Docs for T.__class__

[ Python Tutorial ] [ Python Libraries ] [ web2py epydoc ]

Description


<type 'type'> extends (<type 'object'>,)




















This class is instantiated by gluon.compileapp.build_environment
as the T object

Example:

T.force(None) # turns off translation
T.force('fr, it') # forces web2py to translate using fr.py or it.py

T("Hello World") # translates "Hello World" using the selected file

Note:
-
there is no need to force since, by default, T uses
http_accept_language to determine a translation file.
-
en and en-en are considered different languages!
-
if language xx-yy is not found force() probes other similar languages
using such algorithm: `xx-yy.py -> xx.py -> xx-yy*.py -> xx*.py`


Attributes


T.__class__.M <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Gets cached translated markmin-message with inserted parametes if lazy==True lazyT object is returned

T.__class__.__call__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
get cached translated plain text message with inserted parameters(symbols) if lazy==True lazyT object is returned

T.__class__.__class__ <type 'type'> extends (<type 'object'>,) belongs to class <type 'type'>
type(object) -> the object's type type(name, bases, dict) -> a new type

T.__class__.__delattr__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__delattr__('name') <==> del x.name

T.__class__.__dict__ <type 'dictproxy'> belongs to class <type 'dictproxy'>

T.__class__.__doc__ <type 'str'> belongs to class <type 'str'>
str(object='') -> string Return a nice string representation of the object. If the argument is a string, the return value is the same object.

T.__class__.__format__ <type 'method_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'method_descriptor'>
default object formatter

T.__class__.__get_otherT__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>

T.__class__.__getattribute__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__getattribute__('name') <==> x.name

T.__class__.__hash__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__hash__() <==> hash(x)

T.__class__.__init__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>

T.__class__.__module__ <type 'str'> belongs to class <type 'str'>
str(object='') -> string Return a nice string representation of the object. If the argument is a string, the return value is the same object.

T.__class__.__new__ <type 'builtin_function_or_method'> belongs to class <type 'builtin_function_or_method'>
T.__new__(S, ...) -> a new object with type S, a subtype of T

T.__class__.__reduce__ <type 'method_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'method_descriptor'>
helper for pickle

T.__class__.__reduce_ex__ <type 'method_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'method_descriptor'>
helper for pickle

T.__class__.__repr__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__repr__() <==> repr(x)

T.__class__.__setattr__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__setattr__('name', value) <==> x.name = value

T.__class__.__sizeof__ <type 'method_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'method_descriptor'>
__sizeof__() -> int size of object in memory, in bytes

T.__class__.__str__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__str__() <==> str(x)

T.__class__.__subclasshook__ <type 'builtin_function_or_method'> belongs to class <type 'builtin_function_or_method'>
Abstract classes can override this to customize issubclass(). This is invoked early on by abc.ABCMeta.__subclasscheck__(). It should return True, False or NotImplemented. If it returns NotImplemented, the normal algorithm is used. Otherwise, it overrides the normal algorithm (and the outcome is cached).

T.__class__.__weakref__ <type 'getset_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'getset_descriptor'>
list of weak references to the object (if defined)

T.__class__.apply_filter <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>

T.__class__.force <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Selects language(s) for translation if a list of languages is passed as a parameter, the first language from this list that matches the ones from the possible_languages dictionary will be selected default language will be selected if none of them matches possible_languages.

T.__class__.get_possible_languages <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Gets list of all possible languages for current application

T.__class__.get_possible_languages_info <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Returns info for selected language or dictionary with all possible languages info from `APP/languages/*.py` It Returns: - a tuple containing:: langcode, langname, langfile_mtime, pluraldict_fname, pluraldict_mtime, prules_langcode, nplurals, get_plural_id, construct_plural_form or None - if *lang* is NOT defined a dictionary with all possible languages:: { langcode(from filename): ( langcode, # language code from !langcode! langname, # language name in national spelling from !langname! langfile_mtime, # m_time of language file pluraldict_fname,# name of plural dictionary file or None (when default.py is not exist) pluraldict_mtime,# m_time of plural dictionary file or 0 if file is not exist prules_langcode, # code of plural rules language or 'default' nplurals, # nplurals for current language get_plural_id, # get_plural_id() for current language construct_plural_form) # construct_plural_form() for current language } Args: lang (str): language

T.__class__.get_t <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Use ## to add a comment into a translation string the comment can be useful do discriminate different possible translations for the same string (for example different locations):: T(' hello world ') -> ' hello world ' T(' hello world ## token') -> ' hello world ' T('hello ## world## token') -> 'hello ## world' the ## notation is ignored in multiline strings and strings that start with ##. This is needed to allow markmin syntax to be translated

T.__class__.params_substitution <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Substitutes parameters from symbols into message using %. also parse `%%{}` placeholders for plural-forms processing. Returns: string with parameters Note: *symbols* MUST BE OR tuple OR dict of parameters!

T.__class__.plural <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Gets plural form of word for number *n* invoked from T()/T.M() in `%%{}` tag Note: "word" MUST be defined in current language (T.accepted_language) Args: word (str): word in singular n (numeric): number plural form created for Returns: word (str): word in appropriate singular/plural form

T.__class__.set_current_languages <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Sets current AKA "default" languages Setting one of this languages makes the force() function to turn translation off

T.__class__.translate <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
