This page lists often used commands, sorted by components. Collected from several places in Translation.
Intro
As we get translations from several resources, we run basic checks before committing! Fix them or report them to the LAST TRANSLATOR, if possible.
In theory each time a user visible message changes, a new pot file should be created and merged into all po files. Sometimes new po files are requested.
- Notes on command components
-
- LANG=C
- serves to get the messages in english to forward them to the translator.
- $LOCALE
- replace it by the desired locale.
Components
Glossary
The glossary defines the terminology used in all components.
- Check
-
# 1 file: msgfmt -c --statistics po/glossary/$LOCALE.po # OR all files: for i in po/glossary/*.po; do echo -n "$i:"; LANG=C msgfmt -c --statistics $i ; done
- Update
-
# 1. make pot: po/glossary/txt-to-pot.sh po/glossary/gnc-glossary.txt > po/glossary/gnc-glossary.pot # 2. update glossaries: for i in po/glossary/*.po; do echo -n "$i:"; LANG=C msgmerge --previous -U $i po/glossary/gnc-glossary.pot ; done
- New language
-
cd po/glossary/ # 1. make pot: ./txt-to-pot.sh gnc-glossary.txt > gnc-glossary.pot # 2. add a new glossary: msginit --no-translator -l $LOCALE # DON'T FORGET: add it to CMakeLists.txt cd ../..
Program
- Assumption
- Usage of ninja. If you are using make replace ninja by make.
- Check
-
# 1 file: msgfmt -c --check-accelerators="_" --statistics po/$LOCALE.po # OR all files: for i in po/*.po; do echo -n "$i:"; LANG=C msgfmt -c --check-accelerators="_" --statistics $i ; done
- Errors caused by --check-accelerators="_"
- should be reported to the translator only,
- Other errors
- should be fixed. At least set the fuzzy flag to inform the translator.
- Update
-
# 1. make pot: ninja pot # 2. update po files: for i in po/*.po; do echo -n "$i:"; LANG=C msgmerge --previous -U $i $BUILDDIR/po/gnucash.pot ; done
- New language
-
# 1. make pot: (tut's das?) $BUILDDIR/ninja pot # 2. add a new glossary: cd po/ msginit --no-translator -i $BUILDDIR/po/gnucash.pot -l $LOCALE # DON'T FORGET: add it to CMakeLists.txt cd ..
