cidgoh / DataHarmonizer

A standardized browser-based spreadsheet editor and validator that can be run offline and locally, and which includes templates for SARS-CoV-2 and Monkeypox sampling data. This project, created by the Centre for Infectious Disease Genomics and One Health (CIDGOH), at Simon Fraser University, is now an open-source collaboration with contributions from the National Microbiome Data Collaborative (NMDC), the LinkML development team, and others.

Website localization #333

Open Takadonet opened 2 years ago

Possible we can add support for language localization for non template values? My assumption that need one template for each language that we support.

example: MPX_French MPX_English

Hi, Philip,

I'll check with the LinkML folks. We'd really want to provide french labels for fields and picklists directly in 1 single french/english LinkML specification file, and have DataHarmonizer switch between the two in the app. But they may say to have the DH app handle this via a separate language mapping file.

Also, could you check out https://github.com/cidgoh/DataHarmonizer/pull/329 to see if you have any issues with it, following the yarn instructions and bringing up the test site via yarn dev and via yarn build:web etc. We think its a good way to go but it means that after development, any DH releases you provide your clients via github or wherever are just zip snapshots of the web/dist/ folder after doing yarn build:dist .

Question about MPX_French vs English - I'm assuming all picklists would stay the same? Field titles, descriptions, guidance picklist item titles, would need translation.

Takadonet commented 2 years ago

I was more thinking smaller for now and just localization of everything but the template themselves. image

Start small and then work towards the templates themselves later.

ddooley commented 2 years ago

Ah, I see. so a DH application translation rather than template content. Ok, that sounds like a new and important project. I know there are UI phrase lookup and substitution tools for app development we should get going into DH.

It be another feather in our cap to use DH for large scale projects.

Just a note that a good candidate for browser interface for localization seems to be: https://www.i18next.com
