I solved using temporarily this:
def Moeda(valor, formatado=True):
from locale import setlocale, currency, LC_ALL
try:
setlocale(LC_ALL,'pt_BR.UTF-8')
except:
setlocale(LC_ALL,'portuguese')
if formatado:
return 'R$ %s' % currency(valor, grouping=True, symbol=False)
else:
return currency(valor, grouping=False, symbol=False).replace(',','')
>>> Moeda(10000)
R$ 10.000,00
This will be okay until I have more apps running on the same server, now I
have just one.
I am trying to figure out the best way
