Prestashop convertPrice doesn't convert price - prestashop-1.6

Using Prestashop 1.6.1.4
The theme function
{convertPrice price=$total}
Add the current currency sign but doesn't actually convert the to the chosen currency.
I followed the debugger to function (classes/Product.php, line 3034):
public static function convertPrice($params, &$smarty)
{
return Tools::displayPrice($params['price'], Context::getContext()->currency);
}
Which is strange since the convertPrice eventually calls displayPrice while Tools::convertPrice(...) is the function that convert the currency (but doesn't add the currency sign).
So I change it to :
return Tools::displayConvertPrice($params['price'], Context::getContext()->currency);
and added to Tools.php
public function displayConvertPrice($price, $currency)
{
return Tools::displayPrice(Tools::convertPrice($price, $currency), $currency);
}
My question:
Is it a bug or that I'm missing something?

Who knows what the devs wanted with that but there is a smarty function
{convertAndFormatPrice price=$total}
which does what you want.
You can open /config/smarty.config.inc.php and you'll see all prestashop functions registered in smarty smartyRegisterFunction(yada yada).

Use
{toolsConvertPrice price=$total}
this works for me on PS 1.6.1.12.

MathQuill and set operators

When using MathQuill one needs to type \nsub to get the ⊈ symbol. The latex you get back is \not\subset, which is fine.
But when you try to set back the same \not\subset expression to the MathQuill field, you get a different result : \neg\subset, which translates to a different rendering.
The problem can be reproduced directly on the MathQuill page (http://mathquill.com/) using the browser console :
Any ideas on how to handle or work around this ?
MathQuill will accept \nsub while typing, but also \notsubset, which got me to a simple find-and-replace solution, which does not require any other code change.
Not the best, but it works; the only downside is that the list of text replacements is fixed; the set operators are the one I found; could be more.
// special math pre-processing
var mathFix = {
"\\not\\subset" : "\\notsubset",
"\\not\\supset" : "\\notsupset"
}
var mathTextFixed = '<your latex here>';
Object.keys(mathFix).forEach(function(t1) {
mathTextFixed = mathTextFixed.replace(t1, mathFix[t1]);
});
mathField.latex(mathTextFixed);

How change app language in real time?

I am working on an app which runs in 2 languages, English and Persian (farsi). So user can select his desired language and app is displayed in that language. What should I do?
Depends on what are your trying to achieve, there is an approach that might be useful to your case, which is:
Declare a global variable which should represents the key of the current used language in the app, call it appLanguageKey String -for example-:
var appLanguageKey = "english"
Create a datastore for storing both languages desired caption for each term, it might looks like (contains):
term_key term_english term_farsi
greeting_key Hello Hoi
bye_key Bye Doei
For now, you could get the desired value if you tried to do:
desiredTerm = "select term_\(appLanguageKey) where term_key = 'greeting_key'"
Consider it as pseudo-code, the condition should be similar to it.
By implementing such a function that returns a string (I will assume that it is: getDesiredCaption(_ termKey: String) -> String in the following code snippet), you will be able to automatically set the desired caption for any UI component, just call it in viewWillAppear method the view controller:
override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
.
.
.
label.text = getDesiredCaption("greeting_key")
// Since that 'appLanguageKey' global viriable is "english",
// the output should be "Hello"
.
.
.
}
All you have to do for changing the language of the app is to change the value of appLanguageKey to "farsi".
For another approach which related to the Internationalization and Localization, you might want to check this answer, it should affect the app to let its navigation to be from right to left.
Hope this helped.
First you should use realm, magical records or an API to store what the user picks. Then you could create your own type of localizeable string handeler, by having an array with 2 dictionaries 1 with english and 1 with persian that all the texts in your application will read from just as you do with a normal localizeable.

display seconds in DateTimeItem (SmartGWT)

when reading SmartGWT DateTimeItem: accept 12 hour format I found that using TimeDisplayFormat offers the options to display the seconds as, e.g. dateTimeItem.setTimeFormatter(TimeDisplayFormat.TOPADDED24HOURTIME); well, but there was no change in the displaying of the date.
As the code states that TimeDisplayFormat is deprecated, and one should use the DateDisplayFormatter instead, I tried dateTimeItem.setDateFormatter(DateDisplayFormat.TOSERIALIZEABLEDATE);, but still no change.
The value gets set via dateTimeItem.setValue(myDate);
Any idea what (else) I have to set to the DateTimeItem in order to get the seconds displayed as well?
I'm using SmartGWT 3.1
PS: I tried dateTimeItem.setDisplayFormat(DateDisplayFormat.TOSERIALIZEABLEDATE); as well, but still no change
It seems DateDisplayFormat.TOSERIALIZEABLEDATE is having some issue in SmartGWT 3.x.
dateTimeItem.setDateFormatter(DateDisplayFormat.TOSERIALIZEABLEDATE); works correctly in SmartGWT 4.0.
dateTimeItem.setDisplayFormat(DateDisplayFormat.TOSERIALIZEABLEDATE); did not provide required behavior even in 4.0, probably due to a default system wide format setting.
You should be able to use a value formatter as a workaround in 3.0.
dateTimeItem.setEditorValueFormatter(new FormItemValueFormatter() {
public String formatValue(Object value, Record record, DynamicForm form, FormItem item) {
if (value != null && value instanceof Date) {
return DateTimeFormat.getFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss").format((Date) value);
}
return null;
}
});
Check DateItem.setEditorValueFormatter as you might have to set input format, etc. as well.
hi use the following code in your dateitem timeSheetDate.setShowPickerTimeItem(true); timeSheetDate.setTimeFormatter(TimeDisplayFormat.TOSHORTTIME); and also you can use timeSheetDate.setTimeFormatter(TimeDisplayFormat.TOTIME);

Lua arguments passed to function in table are nil

I'm trying to get a handle on how OOP is done in Lua, and I thought I had a simple way to do it but it isn't working and I'm just not seeing the reason. Here's what I'm trying:
Person = { };
function Person:newPerson(inName)
print(inName);
p = { };
p.myName = inName;
function p:sayHello()
print ("Hello, my name is " .. self.myName);
end
return p;
end
Frank = Person.newPerson("Frank");
Frank:sayHello();
FYI, I'm working with the Corona SDK, although I am assuming that doesn't make a difference (except that's where print() comes from I believe). In any case, the part that's killing me is that inName is nil as reported by print(inName)... therefore, myName is obviously set to nil so calls to sayHello() fail (although they work fine if I hardcode a value for myName, which leads me to think the basic structure I'm trying is sound, but I've got to be missing something simple). It looks, as far as I can tell, like the value of inName is not being set when newPerson() is called, but I can't for the life of me figure out why; I don't see why it's not just like any other function call.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Remember that this:
function Person:newPerson(inName)
Is equivalent to this:
function Person.newPerson(self, inName)
Therefore, when you do this:
Person.newPerson("Frank");
You are passing one parameter to a function that expects two. You probably don't want newPerson to be created with :.
Try
Frank = Person:newPerson("Frank");

How to show Persian numbers on ASP.NET MVC page?

I'm building a site which needs to support both English and Persian language. The site is built with ASP.NET MVC 3 and .NET 4 (C#). All my controllers inherit from a BaseController, which sets culture to "fa-IR" (during test):
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("fa-IR");
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo("fa-IR");
In my views, I'm using static helper classes to convert into right timezone and to format date. Like:
DateFormatter.ToLocalDateAndTime(model.CreatedOnUtc)
I'm doing the same for money with a MoneyFormatter. For money, the currency prints correctly in Persian (or, at least I think so as I don't know any Persian. It will be verified later on though by our translators). The same goes for dates, where the month is printed correctly. This is what it displays as currently:
For money:
قیمت: ريال 1,000
For dates:
21:01 ديسمبر 3
In these examples, I want the numbers to also print in Persian. How do you accomplish that?
I have also tried adding:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1256" />
in the HEAD tag, as recommended on some forums. Does not change anything though (from what I can see). I have also added "fa-IR" as the first language in my browser languages (both IE and Firefox). Didn't help either.
Anyone got any ideas on how to solve this? I'd rather avoid creating translation tables between English numbers and Persian numbers, if possible.
Best regards,
Eric
After some further research I found an answer from a Microsoft employee stating that they don't translate numbers, though it's fully possible to do it yourself using the array of digits for a specific culture, that is provided by the NativeDigits property (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.globalization.numberformatinfo.nativedigits.aspx).
To find out if text that is submitted in a form is Arabic or Latin I'm now doing:
public bool IsContentArabic(string content)
{
string pattern = #"\p{IsArabic}";
return Regex.IsMatch(
content,
pattern,
RegexOptions.RightToLeft | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase | RegexOptions.Multiline);
}
public bool IsContentLatin1(string content)
{
string pattern = #"\p{IsBasicLatin}";
return Regex.IsMatch(
content,
pattern,
RegexOptions.IgnoreCase | RegexOptions.Multiline);
}
And to convert Persian digits into their "Latin" equivalents, I wrote this helper:
public static class NumberHelper
{
private static readonly CultureInfo arabic = new CultureInfo("fa-IR");
private static readonly CultureInfo latin = new CultureInfo("en-US");
public static string ToArabic(string input)
{
var arabicDigits = arabic.NumberFormat.NativeDigits;
for (int i = 0; i < arabicDigits.Length; i++)
{
input = input.Replace(i.ToString(), arabicDigits[i]);
}
return input;
}
public static string ToLatin(string input)
{
var latinDigits = latin.NumberFormat.NativeDigits;
var arabicDigits = arabic.NumberFormat.NativeDigits;
for (int i = 0; i < latinDigits.Length; i++)
{
input = input.Replace(arabicDigits[i], latinDigits[i]);
}
return input;
}
}
I've also hooked in before model binding takes place and there I convert digit-only input from forms into Latin digits, if applicable.
Ako, for what direction goes we managed to solve quite a bit of issues using the 'dir' attribute (dir => direction) on the html tag for our Web page. Like this:
<html dir="rtl">
The 'dir' attribute takes either "rtl" (right-to-left) or "ltr" (left-to-right).
Hope this helps someone!
Maybe you have to change the font.
If you know your client supports a particular font, say Badr or Nazanin, then you can change the font-family for those numbers, and I think that will work for you.
You can supply for the font for your page, but I think this only works in modern browsers and fails in the old ones. You can check this.
Hope that helps.
How are you printing the numbers to the output? I don't have much experience with localization but you might have to use the appropriate NumberFormatInfo or something similar to format the number.
Also for greatest portability you should probably be using UTF8 as the encoding.
firs of all you should use a font-face that supports Persian number.
I use this technique and I can show Persian number on my web site.
fonts like:BNazanin.
