About translate of documentation to russian language

Open vivazzi opened this issue 7 years ago • 7 comments

Hi @jrief, @rfleschenberg and other devs!

Now I translate documentation of django-shop to russian language. At this moment I translated 18 pages of documentation and placed this translation to my blog http://vivazzi.ru/django-shop/

I'd like to provide support of russian translate. This documentation is updates often and it is difficulty for translate to keep actually.

How I can translate docs and know changes. Maybe use versions as django-cms docs?

Maybe we should consider using https://www.transifex.com.

Yes, I thought about it. As I know Transifex is not configured for django-shop yet.

Translate of Django for russian devs is djbook.ru. Now translate of django-shop is my blog. I think that it will be difficult for the traslate through transifex because django-shop is not separated words and phrases. Django-shop as other docs consists of whole sentenses which it is translated with language methods such as joining of sentences, separate of sentences, replace parts of sentences and others. How do you think about it?

@vivazzi it would be great, if you could create a pull request which adds all the Transiflex features. Configuring Transiflex is a PITA, therefore I always try to avoid it, whenever possible.

There are some alternatives out there, if you want to play http://alternativeto.net/software/transifex/

What is PITA?

too vulgar to explain :)

(pain in the ass)

Oh, Okey :)

Maybe I can configure transiflex, but it will be first for me... Transiflex may help translate django-shop, but django-shop documentaion is cmore complex. Our russian translate command for django (https://docs.djangoproject.com) is http://djbook.ru/. I think that first of time I keep translate of django-shop docs in my blog. Furthermore, my translate is not good and I'm going to improved its with russian supporters. Now we all need django-shop docs by version (as django-cms http://django-cms.readthedocs.io/). The translation will be more easy with version when the changes will be added to docs.
