How to translate Kanboard to a new language?
|
||||
--------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- Translations are stored inside the directory `app/Locales`
|
||||
- There is sub-directory for each language, by example for the French we have `fr_FR`, Italian `it_IT` etc...
|
||||
- A translation is a PHP file that return an Array with a key-value pairs
|
||||
- The key is the original text in english and the value is the translation for the corresponding language
|
||||
- **French translations are always up to date**
|
||||
- Always use the last version (branch master)
|
||||
|
||||
### Create a new translation:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make a new directory: `app/Locales/xx_XX` by example `app/Locales/fr_CA` for French Canadian
|
||||
2. Create a new file for the translation: `app/Locales/xx_XX/translations.php`
|
||||
3. Use the content of the French locales and replace the values
|
||||
4. Inside the file `app/Model/Config.php`, add a new entry for your translation inside the function `getLanguages()`
|
||||
5. Check with your local installation of Kanboard if everything is ok
|
||||
6. Send a pull-request with Github

||||
How to update an existing translation?
|
||||
--------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open the translation file `app/Locales/xx_XX/translations.php`
|
||||
2. Missing translations are commented with `//` and the values are empty, just fill blank and remove comments
|
||||
3. Check with your local installation of Kanboard and send a pull-request
