Custom error message for carrierwave 0.9.0 doesn&#

I use carrierwave 0.9.0 with Rails 4 and I'm trying to make a custom error message. After doing some search, I found this answer:

en:
  errors:
    messages:
      extension_white_list_error: 'My Custom Message'

I tried this by going to config/locales/en.yml then adding the code above, but nothing changed. The error message is still the same.

There is also the same issue on github here, but no answers, I think this problem is specific just with Rails 4 but not sure, have you the same problem when you use Rails 4?

There seem be some loading issue with Rails 4.0 with regards to i18n files

Ideally what should be I18n load paths as per 3+

What is seen in Rails 4.0

One can clear see the difference between the two the carrierwave en.yml is loaded after a the application specific en.yml and there is your issue

I suggest there is no easy way unless you the change the load_paths in rails application and some how manage to change the order of load_paths of as expected

I have given a pull request over here. Completely at awe of Carrierwave guys to decide on it

Hacky Solution :

I was refraining in giving you this solution earlier but still if you want it that bad here what you can do

define a file in lib directory(let say auto_load_i18n.rb) and assign the lib path to autoload (in application.rb)

config.autoload_paths += %w(#{config.root}/lib)

Inside auto_load_i18n.rb write this

I18n.load_path.delete(Rails.root.join("config/locales/en.yml").to_s)
I18n.load_path << Rails.root.join("config/locales/en.yml").to_s

And require the lib file at the top of your application_controller.rb

require 'auto_load_i18n'
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base

and I guess everything would work then

You can now understand as to why I was refraining in giving this as a possible solution :)

Hope this help

I use a rails 5.1 I created a file config/locales/carrierwave.ar.yml and wrote

ar:
  carrierwave:
  errors:
    messages:
      min_size_error: "حجم الصورة لابد أن يكون أكبر من %{min_size}"
      max_size_error: "حجم الصورة لابد أن يكون أقل من %{max_size}"
      ....
