Define locale for templating #14

For my title, I want sometimes to use the month of the document. But when I format it, it is in English. Would it be possible to change it through an environment variable or even a variable in the ruleset?

The code uses the Python calendar module to get month names, and the documentation for that module says it uses the current locale to generate the text names.

I think you could try changing the locale for your paperless-ngx docker container, but I'm not sure how to do that. I tried just setting the environment variables [LANG, LANGUAGE, LC_ALL] in docker-compose.env, but that didn't work. I also couldn't find anything on changing the locale in the paperless-ngx documentation. :slightly_frowning_face:
