Help to translate the add-on into your language
Help request
I need volunteers to translate and keep up to date the add-on into your language.
You can contribute either individually for your purpose or join the team of translators to https://github.com/add-ons/translations
Thanks for your time.
Status of language translations
In this link you can find the status for each language translation and the current translators to: https://github.com/add-ons/translations/issues/7
Another option to verify the status of translations is check-translations on CI:
- Open
Actionspage - Select
Kodion workflows entries on left menu - On the right appears the list of Jobs, select the most recent job of
masterbranch (see date/time) - In the job page, select
Addon checker ( ... )entry on the left menu - In the dark status page open
Checking language translationssection, should look like the screenshot - Find your language file to see if there is some warning message
The numbers after
.../strings.po:xxxindicates the row numbers where the problem is. If you do not find your language file there, there are no problems to correct.
Just one simple rule
Each translation can be maintained by multiple users, it is mandatory to tag in every PR you propose every translator involved in your language, to give the opportunity to guarantee a review.
You can see the list of translators in this post: https://github.com/add-ons/translations/issues/7
How to translate
If your language need only to be updated You can find the file language translation at this folder: https://github.com/CastagnaIT/plugin.video.netflix/tree/master/resources/language
Usually the missing translations are with empty string, example:
msgctxt "#30008" msgid "Login failed" msgstr ""
The msgstr is where your translation is to be inserted, and in this case it is missing.
When done you can submit your PR Any changes submitted may be pending until the new version is released.
If you want to add a new language
You can copy the english language file, and write your translation in the each msgstr field
https://github.com/CastagnaIT/plugin.video.netflix/blob/master/resources/language/resource.language.en_gb/strings.po
You also need to identify your locale language code and rename the file/folder name accordly.
When done you can submit your PR Any changes submitted may be pending until the new version is released.

Hello.
If you need help to translate in French, i'm ok to help you
you're free to do it, if you are not able to pull request, you can attach the updated FR file here
i just save the file in my computer and zip it i don't understand
is there another method to give you my file? i edited the file directly in browser, and github saved it in my depository)
@CastagnaIT : i send you an invitation for my repository; you should have access to my file
You're saving it in the wrong way, you're saving the web page not the file po..... so yes i received your github invitation, but this is not necessary for me I can see your public repository, now i look at the changes
@locutus32 missing ids: 30015, 30016 wrong ids: 30066, 30180 missing also all latest additions at the end... do not look good, you have to compare the fr language file with the en language file
Simple question.
What's the purpose for View in Settings and what's the use case?
I have never used it before.
Is similar to Viewtype settings, so each skin has it own.
In the addon is possible set the view type permanently using the viewtype IDs of skin for various sections
@locutus32 ids: 30031 30034 are not translated, is it intentional or not? let me know
To all translators in this thread, the following related upstream projects would be blessed with your help too:

I forgot it. It's ok now
To all translators in this thread, the following related upstream projects would be blessed with your help too:
I have done it for UpNext before, now I have uploaded it for inputstream.adaptive. The rest will be done during the week or weekend.
for the translator, some changes have been made in the languages for parental control before making a PR, compare new changes thank you for your time
A small suggestion: msgctxt "#30009" msgid "Please Check your credentials (user/password)" or msgid "Check your login data"
It will probably be easier to understand what's going on
There is a possibility to add your add-on to Transifex so everything is being translated by a team of translators. But it is unclear how this works.
It is free for Open Source projects. See: https://www.transifex.com/teamxbmc/xbmc-addons/content/ Not sure if Netflix can be added, and if this would be easy to integrate.
Opened a pull request with an update to the Croatian translation https://github.com/CastagnaIT/plugin.video.netflix/pull/337
