v8.0.0 - Show latest stable - Class: AbstractController::Translation

translate(key, **options)

public

Delegates to `I18n.translate`.

When the given key starts with a period, it will be scoped by the current controller and action. So if you call `translate(“.foo”)` from `PeopleController#index`, it will convert the call to `I18n.translate(“people.index.foo”)`. This makes it less repetitive to translate many keys within the same controller / action and gives you a simple framework for scoping them consistently.

        defaults << options[:default] if options[:default]
        options[:default] = defaults.flatten
        key = "#{path}.#{action_name}#{key}"
      end

      if options[:default] && ActiveSupport::HtmlSafeTranslation.html_safe_translation_key?(key)
        options[:default] = Array(options[:default]).map do |value|
          value.is_a?(String) ? ERB::Util.html_escape(value) : value
