Django JavaScript translation not working

Question

I tried to follow the guide but it\'s not clear enough.

1. I added this to my urls.py

   urlpatterns = patterns(\'\',
       (r\'^jsi18n/(?P
   
           

Answer 1

For others with my particular case, js messages are generated and compiled OK but not rendered in templates or pages when you use i18n language urls.

This is because javascript catalog should be added to i18n urls patterns, not to normal patterns.

urlpatterns += patterns('', (r'^jsi18n/$', 'django.views.i18n.javascript_catalog', js_info_dict), )

=>

urlpatterns += i18n_patterns('', (r'^jsi18n/$', 'django.views.i18n.javascript_catalog', js_info_dict), )
