Thanks, this worked. For othesr who might have the same problem, this is
what I have done:
ISO_COUNTRY_CODES_MAPPING = {
'DE': 'Germany',
'ES': 'Spain',
'IT': 'Italy',
'US': 'United States'
}
...
member.country.requires = IS_IN_SET(ISO_COUNTRY_CODES_MAPPING)
Now, to support internationalization here, I see two options:
- I implement a function which returns the desired predefined mapping,
according to the language of the user. How can I know this? How does the T
operator know this?
- I walk the list of ISO country codes applying the T operator to return
the mapping.
Since it is not clear for me when this mapping will be created (at startup?
in each request?) I do not understand the performance implications.
Maybe somebody can comment.
Thanks,
Daniel
