pass also regional settings at building about fastlane HOT 6 CLOSED

@KrauseFx commented

Well, actually it passes the language when running the tests runner.rb:132 not when building the app.

I don't know if there is a way to pass the used locale when running the script.

This could be a bug in XCode 6.1 https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/releasenotes/DeveloperTools/RN-Xcode/Chapters/Introduction.html

Localization and Keyboard settings (including 3rd party keyboards) are not correctly honored by Safari, Maps, and developer apps in the iOS 8.1 Simulator. 
[NSLocale currentLocale] returns en_US and only the English and Emoji keyboards are available. (18418630, 18512161)

This is actually a bug in Xcode which can be bypassed by setting the application language in project's build schemes: Workaround on Stackoverflow
Not sure if this can be handled by snapshot.

The locale can be passed as a launch argument the same way the language is, using the AppleLocale argument, e.g.:

-AppleLocale en_GB

But there is an another issue with these parameters: the iTunes Connect language code used for screenshots and app description, changelog etc. is not necessarily the same as the one passed to AppleLanguages.
For simplified Chinese, with a Chinese locale:

• -AppleLanguages (zh-Hans)
• -AppleLocale zh-Hans_CN
• iTunes Connect language: cmn-Hans

Well it seems that I was partly wrong in my previous comment. You can use the iTunes Connect language id for the AppleLanguages and AppleLocale arguments.

But we definitely need the ability to specify a custom locale id in some cases (see #131).

Thanks @jilouc! Moving further discussion to fastlane-old/snapshot#131 👍
