🌟 No Dutch language

[jtbmedia]

Hi,

There is no Dutch language available. I would like to translate Hi.Events to Dutch. How can i do that?

Hi @jtbmedia 👋

Thank you for the offer! That would be much appreciated. Below is the translations guide I have been working on.

I have also created a branch which has all the below steps already done. You can use this branch as a guide.

Many thanks!

Adding a new language

Frontend

Update ./frontend/lingui.config.js

Update the locales array in lingui.config.js to include the languages you want to support.

Run yarn extract to extract the messages from the source code.

yarn messages:extract

Update ./frontend/src/locales.ts

Update the following properties in ./frontend/src/locales.ts:

• SupportedLocales
• localeMessages
• localeToFlagEmojiMap
• localeToNameMap

Add translations to ./frontend/src/locales/[locale].po

Add translations to the .po file for the new language.

You can use a PO file editor like Poedit to edit the .po file. Or an online editor like Po File Editor.

Run yarn compile to compile the translations.

yarn messages:compile

Backend

Update .backend/app/Locale.php

Add the new language the Locale Enum in ./backend/app/Enums/Locale.php.

Create a [locale].json file in ./backend/lang

Create a [locale].json file in ./backend/lang for the new language.

Add an empty JSON object to the file.

{}

Extract the translations

Run the following command to extract the translations from the source code:

php artisan langscanner [locale]

Update the translations

Update the translations in the [locale].json file.

Compile the translations

There is no need to compile the translations in the backend.

Hi,

That’s to complicated for me. Can you send me the English.po file? I will translate it for you.

Hi

I have translated the frontend po file to dutch. Can i send it to you?

[daveearley]

Awesome, thank you! Appreciate the effort. You can post it here or send it to [email protected].

[jtbmedia]

Hi

I've emailed the file to you.

[Gijsen]

Hi @daveearley ,

Can you include the NL language also by default so i don't need to translate again?

Is the local automatically taken from the users system settings or how is this determend?

[Gijsen]

@jtbmedia do you perhaps can share the NL locale with me also?

[jtbmedia]

Hi Dieter,

Please send me and e-mail.
