Yes, my sincere thanks for Bryan for stopping me from going in
circles.
For everyone else's benefit, here are the critical observations that
had escaped me:
1. If you don't explicitly name the enum_string with the "name: =>"
parameter or with a call to set_name, the main key in your locale file
must include the model name in which the enum_string is defined, as
well as the tableized name of the enum_string (lower-case/
pluralized).
***BUT*** the enum_string's main key can ONLY use the "/" notation.
So, if you do this:
class Document < ActiveRecord::Base
hobo_model
Region = HoboFields::Types::EnumString.for(:ab, :bc)
you must use this notation:
en:
document/regions:
ab: "Alberta"
bc: "British Columbia"
and ***NOT*** this notation:
en:
document:
regions:
ab: "Alberta"
bc: "British Columbia"
2. If you DO explicitly name the enum_string with the "name: =>"
parameter or with a call to set_name, the keys in your locale file
must not include the model name.
If you do this:
class Document < ActiveRecord::Base
hobo_model
Region = HoboFields::Types::EnumString.for(:ab, :bc, :name =>
"Region")
Your locale file's enum_string key must match the tableized version of
the name you assigned to the enum_string (note the lower-case first
letter, and the pluralization).
en:
regions:
ab: "Alberta"
bc: "British Columbia"
