Multilanguage Support

[Tscherno]

Wenn ich es richtig sehe, sind die Frontendtexte momentan statisch und nur auf Deutsch verfügbar. Eine Auslagerung in eine Sprachdatei und die Unterstützung mehrerer Sprachen wäre aus offensichtlichen Gründen wichtig.

Mir ist der Anwenderkreis nicht klar. Gibt es internationale Nutzer? Ich schließe das Thema erstmal als Duplikat von #53.

[Tscherno]

Warum sollte es die nicht geben? Unterstützung von Englisch wäre für den Anfang sicher mehr als ausreichend.

Hi

I'd like to have the front-end in English. If possible I'm happy to help with the translation although I can see you Guys have a better English than mine :-D

[andig]

This would need a PR for the frontend part. I don‘t have muxh use for it as we‘re pretty much focused on the German market.

[stepir]

that's a shame as it's basically few terms in three files?

Bezug / Import -> assets/js/components/SiteDetails.vue
Einspeisung / Export -> assets/js/components/SiteDetails.vue
Erzeugung / Production -> assets/js/components/SiteDetails.vue
Batterie / Battery -> assets/js/components/SiteDetails.vue
Sofort / Max -> assets/js/components/Mode.vue
Leistung / Power -> assets/js/components/LoadpointDetails.vue
Geladen / Charged -> assets/js/components/LoadpointDetails.vue
Reichweite / Range  -> assets/js/components/LoadpointDetails.vue
Restzeit / Left -> assets/js/components/LoadpointDetails.vue

any chance you could consider set them as variable that a user can configure in evcc.yaml?

No, that's not where it belogs. Would accept a proper PR though.

/cc @naltatis regarding multi-language UI

[naltatis]

Shouldn't be to complicated to build. I can make the initial implementation and add English.

[stepir]

Happy to help

[naltatis]

@stepir I've created a PR with i18n support. I hope I cached all German text. Please review the PR.

[andig]

Great work, thank you @naltatis

[andig]

@stepir where are you coming from to take an interest in an english version?

@stepir where are you coming from to take an interest in an english version?

absolutely!!

evcc is great, look how it's following my production curve even on cloudy days with constant drops/gains

I reviewed @naltatis PR and looks good to me. How can I help?

How can I help?

How about providing an Italian language file (it.js), based on https://github.com/andig/evcc/blob/master/assets/js/i18n/en.js ?

;-)

[stepir]

absolutely - although I'm a believer of using EN everywhere :-)

@stepir Hey, are you still around? Italian translation is way behind the evcc progress now, could you update it ? EN https://github.com/evcc-io/evcc/blob/master/assets/i18n/en.toml IT https://github.com/evcc-io/evcc/blob/master/assets/i18n/it.toml
