Technical guideline for operators

If you are used to work on the command line, these informations might help you along.

Add a new translation file

cd po
msginit --locale pt

This should add a new translation file pt.po.

Please edit the header fields Last-Translator and Language-Team appropriately. Then, add the translation texts.

You might want to have a look at the existing translations as a reference, especially about how to handle multiline items: po/fr.po, po/en.po, po/de.po and po/jp.po.

Convert translation file formats

Convert GNU gettext PO files to i18next JSON format:

yarn install
make gettext-to-json

This should convert all po/*.po files to their corresponding json/*.json pendants.

When adding a new translation to the po/ directory, please also update the LANGUAGES list in the Makefile.

It uses the i18next-gettext-converter module under the hood.

Note

As the JSON files will be automatically generated from the PO files, there's no need to edit/update them when adding/correcting a translation for a specific language.

Just run the command above to build the JSON files from the PO files.
