Use Drupal.formatPlural for when announcing module-filter results for screenreader users

Created on 29 April 2016, over 8 years ago
Updated 26 January 2023, almost 2 years ago

Problem/Motivation

The module-filter search field on the admin/modules page announces the number of results to screen reader users. However it doesn't handle singular/plural correctly, so when only ONE module is available, it announces "1 modules are available...".

To replicate: install the Standard profile, then search for "tel" while a screen reader is running. The only match is the telephone field module.

Proposed resolution

Use Drupal.formatPlural() for the message which is passed to Drupal.announce() in system.modules.js

Remaining tasks

  • Patch system.modules.js - DONE.
  • FunctionalJavascript tests for module filter behaviour, asserting correct drupal.announce() messages - DONE.
