[Grok-dev] Trigger i18n translation in the rendering method of a view

[Sebastian Ware]

Turns out one needed to supply the request-object as context. This works:

  from zope.i18n import translate
  class ForceTranslate(grok.View):
      def render(self):
          return translate(_("Allt val?"), context=self.request)
