In my settings.py
file I have:
LANGUAGE_CODE = 'ru-RU'
also, I have installed and working django-admin-tools. But admin language still english. What I'm doing wrong?
PS.
$ cat settings.py | grep USE | grep -v USER
USE_I18N = True
USE_L10N = True
USE_TZ = True
Sometimes you can just extend the original admin file and then overwrite a block like {% block extrastyle %}{% endblock %} in django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/base. html as an example. If your style is model specific you can add additional styles via the Media meta class in your admin.py .
Its used for translation for creating translation files like this: # app/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/django.po #: templates/app/index.html:3 msgid "email address" msgstr "emailová adresa" Than it can be rendered in template as translated text.
If needed, run the Django app again with python manage.py runserver 0.0. 0.0:8000 and then navigate once more to the URL http:// your-server-ip :8000/admin/ to get to the admin login page. Then log in with the username and password and password you just created.
You need to set the language specifically for the admin app. Since django does not provide a language drop down as part of the default login, you have a few options:
Login to your normal (non admin view), with superuser/staff credentials and the correct language, then shift over to the admin URL.
Update the admin templates and add a language dropdown see this snippet.
Create some custom middleware to set the language for admin:
from django.conf import settings
from django.utils import translation
class AdminLocaleMiddleware:
def process_request(self, request):
if request.path.startswith('/admin'):
request.LANG = getattr(settings, 'ADMIN_LANGUAGE_CODE',
settings.LANGUAGE_CODE)
translation.activate(request.LANG)
request.LANGUAGE_CODE = request.LANG
Add it to your MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = {
# ...
'foo.bar.AdminLocaleMiddleware',
# ...
}
Set the language you want for the admin in settings.py
:
ADMIN_LANGUAGE_CODE = 'ru-RU'
