Change of language #66

Closed PandCall closed 2 years ago

PandCall commented 2 years ago

Hi, I can't change the language of the node. I understood that it was happening in the .node-red/node_modules/node-red-contrib-ui-time-scheduler/locales/xx_xxx/time-scheduler.json with correct locales folders I tested fr_FR or fr_FR.UTF-8 but it is still in English. I must be forgetting something. What mechanism is used to change the language of the node? after translating the time-scheduler.json file how to implement it ? Best regards

System : Raspberry with Buster Node-Red : 2.1.3 node-red-contrib-ui-time-scheduler 1.16.2

Locale LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 LANGUAGE= LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_TIME="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_NAME="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.UTF-8" LC_ALL=

Hi @PandCall,

all the UI nodes automatically select the language of the node-red instance that is currently running.

You can set the language here (settings.js file): https://github.com/node-red/node-red/blob/3e0f080ea7511bbf242a079d3f504e266c6d04e1/packages/node_modules/node-red/settings.js#L233

Unfortunately FR is not in the list yet and I suppose it will default to EN-US if you change it to FR and as long as node-red does not run in FR mode the UI scheduler will not load the FR translation file. I can only see two possible solutions - contribute to the node-red core, so that FR is going to be available or just replace the content of "node-red/node_modules/node-red-contrib-ui-time-scheduler/locales/en-US/time-scheduler.json" with french values.

Please let me know if this helps!

Thank you for your quick answer, I understand better the constraints. The workaround I found is to translate the files that are into en-US It's a bit radical as a solution, but for the moment it's effective. For this application, it's 100% French, so it's not a problem not to have multi-languages. Time to find something more dynamic. Best regards

Thanks for your feedback. Going to close this issue, let me know if you need anything else!

Thanks for your help, for the moment it's ok but I will also follow the track to modify Node-Red to apply dynamically the language. in /usr/lib/node_modules/node-red/node_modules/@node-red/editor-client/locales/ creation of a fr-FR folder to make Node-Red believe it is in French :) To Be Continued........
