# CommonLanguages
A simple gem that provides the ability to display the list of
I18n.available_locales in a localized and friendly way.
There are many similar or related gems. For example:
* https://github.com/davec/localized_language_select
* https://github.com/teonimesic/language_switcher
* https://github.com/grosser/i18n_data
* https://github.com/scsmith/language_list
I wanted something different than what these others provide:
* Language names should be displayed in the native name for each language, not
a localized or anglicized version.
* There should not be any gem dependencies.
* Since there is no universal collation across all languages, they should be
sorted in order of popularity.
* There should not be any need to parse large data files, 99% of which will
never be used.
# Usage
This code:
I18n.available_locales = [:de, :en, :pt]
CommonLanguages.available.each do |language|
p [language.code, language.name, language.english_name, language.rtl?]
end
Produces:
[:en, "English", "English", false]
[:pt, "Português", "Portugues", false]
[:de, "Deutsch", "German", false]
