Configuring a locale in the url: /en/users/sign_in

[andreaskundig]

I would like to use urls that include the locale, like /en/users/sign_in like documented in the rails i18n doc

I tried setting the scope like this:

  scope ":locale" do
    passwordless_for :users

/en/users/sign_in works, but when I enter an email and click on the button, I get

ActionController::UrlGenerationError in Passwordless::SessionsController#create

No route matches {:action=>"confirm", :authenticatable=>:user, :controller=>"passwordless/sessions", :id=>"57137bd7-2ff0-454c-a945-7a1d15a07758", :resource=>:users, :token=>"ALZJD1"}

The error happens in I18n.with_locale, in the switch_locale function that I copied from the i18n rails doc

  def switch_locale(&action)
    locale = params[:locale] || I18n.default_locale
    I18n.with_locale(locale, &action)
  end

Is there a way to get this to work?

In the stacktrace, with_locale goes through two passwordless methods.

mailer.sign_in tries to build a magic_link with context.url_for and fails

Yes, I believe this is due to how passwordless builds its urls. I'm afraid we don't support scoped urls like that currently.

It is not something I have the bandwidth to add support for atm, but I'll gladly review and possibly include a nice PR if someone is up for the challenge.

@andreaskundig If you need this url structure, you can set up your own routes and possibly controllers/mailers/routes. Use the built-in ones as a starting point. Will take a bit of work but it's possible.
