Issue#
No-Story
Description:
This patch attempts not to always load all bundled locale files.
Motivation:
Faker bundles so many I18n resources for various locales in the gem package, but indeed our real-world applications do not usually use all these locales. In my case, number of locales that we use in our tests are usually one or two.
That means, most of locales that Faker loads are consuming our time and memory per each test run although we never use them.
It'd be nicer if Faker loads the YAML files only for "the locales that we would use" i.e.
available_locales
.Strategy:
Before this patch, Faker was telling I18n to load all bundled locale files at the very top level.
Instead, this patch suggests to load the ones that correspond to
I18n.available_locales
(note that the implementation is based on the assumption that each YAML file has the name of the locale that it contains).In consideration of the case where
I18n.available_locales
value is not yet configured when the ruby process loads this library but being configured somewhere in the application initialization process, this patch tries to postpone loading YAML files as late as possible.As a side effect, starting up a ruby process that bundles Faker but does not use Faker would become faster and less memory-consuming.
Note:
This PR would conflict with my previous PR #2167 but of course I'm happy to rebase whichever one.
