AUR Translation
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
This document describes how to create and maintain AUR translations. It was
|
|
originally derived from http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_Translation
|
|
|
|
Creating an AUR translation requires a Transifex (http://www.transifex.net/)
|
|
account. You will need to register with a translation team on the AUR project
|
|
page (http://www.transifex.net/projects/p/aur/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creating a New Translation
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Before beginning, please sign up for an Transifex account and request the
|
|
addition of a new translation team for the AUR project. Also, please do not
|
|
translate if you are unwilling to maintain or find someone to maintain the
|
|
translation. This is due to the fact that the AUR is a rapidly evolving project
|
|
and there are constantly new strings to be translated. If the translations get
|
|
too out of sync with the released versions, there will be too many untranslated
|
|
strings for the translation to be usable, and it may have to be disabled.
|
|
|
|
1. Check out the AUR source using git:
|
|
|
|
$ git clone git://projects.archlinux.org/aur.git aur-git
|
|
|
|
2. Go into the "po/" directory in the AUR source and run msginit(1) to create a
|
|
initial translation file from our translation catalog:
|
|
|
|
$ cd aur-git
|
|
$ git checkout master
|
|
$ git pull
|
|
$ cd po
|
|
$ msginit -l <locale> -o <locale>.po -i aur.pot
|
|
|
|
3. Use some editor or a translation helper like poedit to add translations:
|
|
|
|
$ poedit <locale>.po
|
|
|
|
5. If you have a working AUR setup, add a line for the new translation in
|
|
"web/lib/config.inc.php.proto" and test if everything looks right.
|
|
|
|
6. Upload the newly created ".po" file to Transifex. If you don't like the web
|
|
interface, you can also use transifex-client to do that (see below).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updating an Existing Translation
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Download current translation files from Transifex. You can also do this
|
|
using transifex-client which is available through the AUR:
|
|
|
|
$ tx pull -a
|
|
|
|
2. Update the existing translation file using an editor or a tool like poedit:
|
|
|
|
$ poedit po/<locale>.po
|
|
|
|
3. Push the updated translation file back to Transifex. Using transifex-client,
|
|
this works as follows:
|
|
|
|
$ tx push -r aur.aurpot -t -l <locale>
|
