Translations #71

Closed UnsolvedCypher closed 11 years ago

UnsolvedCypher commented 11 years ago

Will translations be supported on this extension? In order to have support, all that needs to be done is described on this page: https://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Extensions/FAQ/CreatingExtensions. I think it would be great if translations could be supported, as people speaking other languages could enjoy this great extension.

@UnsolvedCypher Sounds like a good idea. However currently the project doesn't have any infrastructure in place to package, extract the strings and compile the po file properly. I haven't yet found a good solution for this. Some extensions use autotools to handle this, but I don't know if this is the right tool for the job. Do you have any references for this, do you know any best practice suggested by the GS devs?

Also if anyone is interested to contribute to this feature feel free to participate.

I don't have much experience, but I would be happy to contribute what I can. Can you clarify what you mean by the project not having any infrastructure?

Looks like a good reference - https://bitbucket.org/LukasKnuth/backslide/src/5313b2c63a3da069609689913031cf780d7237f1/TRANSLATION.md?at=master

I've followed the GNOME instructions and created a Spanish translation, but it looks like I ended up breaking something in the process. The forked repo can be found here: https://github.com/UnsolvedCypher/gnome-shell-extension-sensors. Could you take a look at it?

adrianbroher commented 11 years ago

Sorry, but I won't take generated binaries to the repository.

There is still some building infrastructure missing, but I'm working on it. Please be patient.

adrianbroher commented 11 years ago

I've added the necessary parts to the repository.
