How can I contribute with the translation into Spanish?

Open kakopedreros opened this issue 3 years ago • 6 comments

Hello,

how can i contribute with the translation into Spanish? Reading one pull request and browsing into the code i find the file:

android/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml

I work in a University and we would launch eduVPN in the next weeks. We want to provide a useful translation of Spanish for Latinamerica.

Best regards,

Hello @kakopedreros

You can make a new directory called values-es in the res/ directory, and copy the strings.xml over. Then you can replace the translation values with their Spanish translation:

<resources xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
           tools:locale="en-US">
    <string name="clear_log">Clear log in Spanish</string>

Note that I skipped the string app_name. That is, because I don't want it to be translated. If you have any questions, ask here, or make a pull request with your changes so we can review them.

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the instructions.

I will start the fork of the project and start with the creation of the file. When i finish i will make a pull request for your review.

Best regards,

@fkooman I think we can make a new release, @kakopedreros has supplied the translations and they seem to be working fine.

Yes, I just tagged 2.0.4 and will build the Let's Connect! variant, upload it and test it.

Thanks all!

Build with translation and parallel install fix is available: https://app.letsconnect-vpn.org/android/LetsConnect-2.0.4.apk

My Android device is installing updates, so it will be a while before I can test.
