3. What Is It?
● Globalize3 is the successor of Globalize for Rails and is
targeted at ActiveRecord version 3.x. It is compatible with
and builds on the new I18n API in Ruby on Rails and
adds model translations to ActiveRecord.

4. How Does It Work?
● First we’ll add it to the list of gems in the gemfile:
gem 'globalize3'

5. Model translations ?
● We can go to the model we want to translate
and use the translates method to specify the
names of the columns we want to be available in
multiple languages, in our case the name and
content columns in Article.
● /app/models/article.rb
● class Article < ActiveRecord::Base
translates :name, :content
end

6. Migrating existing data to and from
the translated version?
● In order to make this work, you'll need to add the
appropriate translation tables. Globalize3 comes with a
handy helper method to help you do this. It's called
create_translation_table!. Here's an example:
● $ rails g migration create_article_translations

7. class CreateArticleTranslations < ActiveRecord::Migration
def up
Article.create_translation_table!({
name: :string,
content: :text
}, {
migrate_data: true
})
end
def down
Article.drop_translation_table! migrate_data: true
end
end

8. I18n fallbacks for empty
translations?
/config/application.rb
config.i18n.fallbacks = true
