The applied patch is used to make application names localizable for admin
interface and also for other purposes.
This patch is applied to django v. 1.2.3 (django.VERSION = (1, 2, 3,
'final', 0))
It uses a new APP_NAMES variable from the user-provided settings.py which
should be a dictionary having application label (model._meta.app_label) as
a key, and application verbose name as a value. If the APP_NAMES is absent
or doesn't contain a label of the application, the old schema
(app_label.Title()) is used.
This way allows to localize application names exactly as other things in
the project:
settings.py:
{{{
...
from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _
...
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'myapp.service',
...
)
APP_NAMES = {
'service':_('Service')
}
}}}
Now the "Service" string will appear in the django.po files for the whole
project, so you can localize application names as you wish.
This patch is a minimalistic way to make a part of the job made by the
patch published in the ticket #3591. Reasons why I've published the patch
is - "simpler means more stable", and "One patch - one job".
