Thanks, Yarko and Massimo
Yes, translation of messages in auth without T() worked :-)
I inserted
auth.messages.label_first_name = 'Given name'
into models/db.py
and, after hitting 'update all languages',
found an item 'Given name' in a language file for translation.
It's good to know how it works, thanx.
Now, as for ordering of first name and last name, gluon/tools.py has a
couple of
table.user_id.requires = IS_IN_DB(db, '%s.id' %
self.settings.table_user._tablename,
'%(id)s: %(first_name)s %(last_name)s')
As I mentioned before, in Japanese, family name comes first. So, I
may write
auth.messages.label_first_name = 'Family name'
auth.messages.label_last_name = 'Given name'
This is going to be confusing as a database.
Alternatively, I wonder if the requires statement above can be
modified like
self.messages.format_auth_dropdown_names = '%(id)s: %(first_name)s %
(last_name)s'
table.user_id.requires = IS_IN_DB(db, '%s.id' %
self.settings.table_user._tablename,
self.messages.format_auth_dropdown_names)
so that the string '%(id)s: %(first_name)s %(last_name)s' shows up in
a language file to be translated. Then, I could translate it as '%(id)
s: %(last_name)s %(first_name)s' for Japanese.
I'll appreciate comments.
