Ex_Cldr v2.26.0 Release Notes

  • 🚀 This is the changelog for Cldr v2.26.0 released on February 21st, 2022. For older changelogs please consult the release tag on GitHub

    LanguageTag structure changes

    • Cldr.LanguageTag.t has been revised with the :cldr_locale_name and :rbnf_locale_name now being atoms rather than binaries. This is unlikely to affect client code. The primary benefit, apart from a slightly improved memory space, is the easier integration planned with the trans library.

    🐛 Bug Fixes

    • 0️⃣ Fix setting the default backend with Cldr.put_default_backend/1 which wasn't actually being set.

    • 🛠 Fix Config.message_formats to default to an empty map, not an empty list.

    • 🛠 Fix Cldr.Locale.parents/1 to return an {:ok, list} tuple on success rather than a bare list.

    • 🛠 Fix <backend>.Cldr.Number.{Cardinal, Ordinal, Spellout}.pluralize/3 for non-integer Decimal numbers.

    ✨ Enhancements

    • ➕ Add <backend>.Trans module to support closer integration with the trans for database translations.

    • ➕ Add Cldr.Locale.fallback_locales/1 to return the list of recursively created parent locales, including the provided locale. This can be used to support resolving translations from a system that might be sparsely populated.

    • Add Cldr.Locale.fallback_locale_names/1 that returns the :cldr_locale_name component of the locales returned by Cldr.Locale.fallback_locales/1.

    • Adds Cldr.Locale.locale_from_territory/{1,2} to derive a "best fit" locale for a given territory. Also adds <backend>.Locale.locale_from_territory/1.

    • Adds Cldr.Locale.locale_from_host/{2, 3} to derive a "best fit" locale for a given host name. Also adds <backend>.Locale.locale_from_host/2.

    • Adds Cldr.Locale.territory_from_host/1 to return the territory for a given host name. Also adds <backend>.Locale.territory_from_host/1.

    • Adds Cldr.Locale.consider_as_tlds/0 to return a list of valid territory suffixes that are considered as generic TLDs instead. See https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/managing-multi-regional-sites.

    • Adds Cldr.Locale.languages_for_territories/0 to return a mapping of territories to that territory's most spoken language.

    • Adds Cldr.put_gettext_locale/1 that sets the gettext locale for a given t:Cldr.LanguageTag.

    • Adds Cldr.TestHelper module in test/suport to provide testing helpers. Initially provides with_no_default_backend/1 function.
