I've done something like this to a project that I'm working in.
The big question is that look for translations on database can be a
pain for
your app performance. So, on my project what I did is:
I made a rake task that takes the translations on database and put it
on a
yml file (I splited the translation files into many others, so, I have files
that are static and this one that is deleted and rebuilt by that rake task).
And, after this rebuild, my cron calls another task that I created that sends
a SIGALRM to the rails application that understand this and reload the
languages. Of course, it must send the signal to all the instances of Rails.
Hey! Wouldn't be nice if I put this into a plugin? If yes, I can do it easily
do it :)
Bye!
