Using the url tag with the blocktrans one

Hi David, the thread is here: http://groups.google.fr/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/4c7b2ce86bcd990e and has a fairly good syntax at the end, I think.

Thanks jezdez for the link, for the record, here is a quote from the final example:

So this would make the syntax like this :

{% blocktrans with message.created|date as date and user.married|year as married_since and user.name as username %} 
    Received on {{ date }} 
    from 
    {% as link_open %}<a href="{% url userlink user.id %}">{% endas %} 
         {{ username }} (married since {{ married_since }}) 
    {% as link_close %}<a/>{% endas %} 
{% endblocktrans %}

Then the string to translated would be :

"Received on %(date)s from %(link_open)s %(username)s (married since %(married_since)s) %(link_close)%" 

I'm not fond of all those tags but I'll try to write a patch.

Yay!

As for the "as" subtag you may want to have a look at http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/545/.

First naive implementation

Eventually I implemented:

{% blocktrans with message.created|date as date and user.married|year as married_since and user.name as username url userlink user.id as user_url %} 
    Received on {{ date }} 
    from 
    <a href="{{ user_url }}">{{ username }} (married since {{ married_since }})<a/>
{% endblocktrans %}

It seems a lot more readable to me and it's consistent with the existing "count" alternative. I reuse URLNode from the url tag.

The translated result is:

"Received on %(date)s from <a href=\"%(user_url)s\">%(username)s (married since %(married_since)s)</a>"

Any thoughts? (I'll add tests too but I need to be sure that this syntax is accepted first).

Documentation of the patch

Added documentation, review welcome given my poor english.

All in one with regression tests

Added tests.

BTW, I found a bug in tests.regressiontests.templates.tests with url02, there is a space between client.id, and action="update" and this option is not mentioned in documentation (it breaks my code if it's intentional):

'url02' : ('{% url regressiontests.templates.views.client_action client.id, action="update" %}', {'client': {'id': 1}}, '/url_tag/client/1/update/'),

I suggest to remove it.
