gettext for openstack-common modules.
Usual usage in an openstack.common module:
from ironic.openstack.common.gettextutils import _
"""
import gettext
import os
_localedir = os.environ.get('ironicclient'.upper() + '_LOCALEDIR')
_t = gettext.translation('ironicclient', localedir=_localedir, fallback=True)
def _(msg):
return _t.ugettext(msg)
def install(domain):
"""Install a _() function using the given translation domain.
Given a translation domain, install a _() function using gettext's
install() function.
The main difference from gettext.install() is that we allow
overriding the default localedir (e.g. /usr/share/locale) using
a translation-domain-specific environment variable (e.g.
NOVA_LOCALEDIR).
