Translator Info
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
If you like phpPgAdmin, then why not translate it into your native language?
|
||||
|
||||
There are quite a large number of strings to be translated. Partial
|
||||
translations are better than no translations at all, and a rough guide is that
|
||||
the strings are in the order from most important to least important in the
|
||||
language file. You can ask the developers list if you don't know what a
|
||||
certain string means.
|
||||
|
||||
We tried keeping translation easy in phpPgAdmin by using ONLY the UTF-8 charset.
|
||||
Make sure to always work on UTF-8 files when creating a new translation or
|
||||
editing an existing one.
|
||||
|
||||
To Create a new translation:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to the lang/ subdirectory
|
||||
|
||||
2. Copy english.php to yourlanguage.php
|
||||
|
||||
3. Update the comment at the top of the file. Put yourself as the language
|
||||
maintainer. Edit the 'applang' variable and put your language's name in it,
|
||||
in your language.
|
||||
Edit the 'applocale' and put your language code according to the standart:
|
||||
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1766.txt
|
||||
|
||||
Basicaly, you just need to put your language code [1] and optionnaly country
|
||||
code [2] separated by a '-'. As instance for french canadian, it is: fr-CA
|
||||
[1]: http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/IG/ert/iso639.htm
|
||||
[2]: http://www.iso.org/iso/country_codes/iso_3166_code_lists/country_names_and_code_elements.htm
|
||||
|
||||
4. Go through as much of the rest of the file as you wish, replacing the
|
||||
English strings with strings in your native language.
|
||||
|
||||
At this point, you can send the yourlanguage.php file to us and we will take
|
||||
care of testing and recoding the translation. Please only do that if you
|
||||
find the rest of these steps too difficult.
|
||||
|
||||
5. To add your language to phpPgAdmin, edit the lang/translations.php file
|
||||
and add your language to the $appLangFiles array.
|
||||
Also, add your language to the $availableLanguages array for
|
||||
browser auto detection.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Send your contribution to us. We need the lang/translations.php entry as
|
||||
well as the lang/yourlanguage.php file. Email to the developers list:
|
||||
phppgadmin-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
|
||||
|
||||
7. There exists a tool named 'langcheck' in the lang/ directory. To run it,
|
||||
just type 'php langcheck <language>'. It will give you a report about
|
||||
which strings are missing from your language file and which need to be
|
||||
deleted.
|
||||
|
||||
Thank you for your contribution! You have just made phpPgAdmin accessible
|
||||
to thousands more users!
