[jira] Commented: (OFBIZ-1825) Colors and localisation for the calendar

Todor Spasov commented on OFBIZ-1825:
-------------------------------------

Hello Sascha and Jacques,
When i was reviewing the previous calendar localisation of Marco Ruocco i saw that two things must be done. The first one is, as Sascha says now, the js part and the second is the service engine part.
The implementation was simple js and a complex rendering code in the form widget and ObjectType's simpleTypeConvert(). The latter is used to let services correctly parse localised date/time to java object (Timestamp).
Using Adrian Crum's latest addition - the converter this part could easily be completed. But there is one con to following this approach - you have to change all java events and groovies because they have to deal with the unparsed
localised string for the date/time that arrives as a String there. Services use ObjectType.simpleTypeConvert().

If we make the form widget render one hidden field (with our original field name e.g. fromDate) that holds the returned date from the js calendar in the standard format and another that is used to display the date in the locale format then it could be possible not to touch ofbiz code (apart from the date-time renderer and *all ftls :D to render both fields ). It has a disadvantage since we only show a display string with the date that is not editable, so the user can't just type the date he wants, instead he must always use the calendar.

WDYT?

Thanks,
Todor

[jira] Updated: (OFBIZ-1825) Colors and localisation for the calendar

Sascha Rodekamp updated OFBIZ-1825:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: calendar_I18n.patch

Hi,
here is my first idea to internationalize the calendar.

I moved the calendar to a sepparte folder. So there is one place
for all the different locale and format files.

An Ajax Request gets the User Locale and loads a *.js file with the
Date Format / Language information (if nothing is found english is set as default).

For now the Calendar returns a sortable date format to the input field!!

Maybe someone can have a looks, but for me it's the simpelst solution to  
internationalize the calendar.

BTW: i uppdaded the calendar to the current version :-)

So long
Sascha

----------------------------------------

Hi Sascha,

I just quickly tested and I find one issue : the Calendar does not return a sortable date format to the input field.
Else it seems to works well (I added "Clear": "Init" to _translations in js.fr)

Sascha Rodekamp updated OFBIZ-1825:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: calendar_I18n.patch

Hi,
yeah Jacques stupid mistake, i forgott to update the code before submit it :-(
I made a few changes. Because i realized, that it was not the simpelst way i choosed.

Now there is no Ajax Request anymore. We don't need an extra Service (and the Java overhead).
I load the l18n data directly after the calendar_data_select.js in the common screen.

What do you think?

Cu
Sascha

----------------------------------------

Sorry Sascha,

Now not only the the Calendar does not return a sortable date format to the input field; but it does not work in French (shows in English) when you 1st load.
If you switch from French to English and back to French it's ok.

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1825?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jacques Le Roux closed OFBIZ-1825.
----------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s:     (was: Release Branch 9.04)
                   SVN trunk

Thanks Sascha,

It's great to see this done after so long time. Well done, simple and clear implementation. Do you speak nine languages? ;)

Your patch is in trunk at r886143

I have just changed the path to calendar_date_select.js in the LICENCE file (and finally replaced Init by Effacer in French)

If someone needs it in R9.04 it's easy to backport (just 2 small conflicts in eCommerce CommonScreens.xml

----------------------------------------

A bug has been fixed in r886723

Sascha I wonder why you put the ! in ${parameters.userLogin.lastLocale!} in main.ftl and also why I did not spot it though I thought that js file may be missing with some languages.
But as my tests were ok (even with hi_IN which is weird now...) I did not care :/

Not a big deal but surprising
