if there are no translations set for the values marked as translatable in the model the current implementation throws an error (undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass)

creating a class which includes translateable but does not actually uses it results in a save failure when saving the class to the db

class Something < ActiveRecord::Base
include ActiveRecordTranslatable
end

s = Something.new
s.save => will fail

currently there is a dependency set for rails, which is not needed as a whole, so it should be cleaned.

Translating should be possible even if the database does not support native arrays to save the locales in

This should ease the setup

Handle setting up a model for translatable

• create a migration to add a locales column
• optional make the locales column a native array
• add serialize locales to the model if not a native array

After reading and writing for a couple times, for some reason the symbols get duplicated

mymodel.translatable # => [:name, :name, :name]

the project was created with testunit but is tested via rspec, so testunit should be removed from the called generators.

Currently creating a new model via

$ rails g model MyModel

will create a a test directory with the needed testfiles

When a model is deleted cleanup all stored translations for it

Currently translatable is included in ActiveRecord instead of the model... which is wrong... This means the translatable fields are defined across all models instead of just the one they are for!

When a model is saved make sure that any stored translation which are no longer needed are deleted
