Rails error messages cannot be translated into Japanese

phenomenon

The file that describes the Japanese translation of the column name did not work well because the error message was translated into Japanese.

Solutions

Once I arranged the spacing of the description, it worked. I was able to learn anew that there are other things that do not work with spacing other than typographical errors.

config/locales/models/ja.yml

  #It doesn't work well unless the hierarchical structure is represented by spacing
  ja:
    activerecord:
      models:
        event:Event
      attributes:
        event:
          name:event name
          place:Venue
          content:Event content

Procedure for translating error messages into Japanese

Install the gem "rails-i18n"

Gemfile

gem 'rails-i18n'

↓ bundle install ↓ Edit the description of config/application.rb

config/application.rb

config.i18n.default_locale = :ja

Now you can translate it into Japanese. However, the column names are still written in English, so (Example) Please enter an email I get an error message like this.

Write the column name translated into Japanese

Create a file called "ja.yml" in config/locales/models /. Describe the Japanese corresponding to the column name in the created file.

config/locales/models/ja.yml

  #It doesn't work well unless the hierarchical structure is represented by spacing
  ja:
    activerecord:
      models:
        event:Event
      attributes:
        event:
          name:event name
          place:Venue
          content:Event content
