Translation Support

[subtank]

i love your plugin and really want to translate it to chinese and trans your plugin into chinese. can you give me an language file (in english)and i can translate it to chinese?

[Mohron]

@subtank I'd love to have the plugin translated. I already had setting it up so it could be on my to do list. Right now I was hoping I could wait for proper support in sponge (SpongePowered/SpongeAPI#1224) but if we get to a more stable place, I can look at using our own solution.

We should just create a language file in the meantime and allow people to fork it, cultures know their languages better than we ever will so it would be useful.. And we can always refactor later

[subtank]

yes, when you build the language file, i will translate ASAP

[Mohron]

Let's keep this open so we don't forget!

[subtank]

haha...

[subtank]

i just want to know when i can give you a translation support?did you forget this support?

[Mohron]

@subtank Trust me I haven't forgotten. I will let you know once we have made the plugin easily translatable.

[subtank]

will...i just translate your wiki to chinese...
by the way.can i put your plugin in chinese bbs? www.mcbbs.net

[subtank]

almost done,but some little link bug i didnt know how to fix it
命令（Commands）

[subtank]

some suggest when you make translate easily:
you need use the ANSI/ASCII file encoding to the language file,because if you use the UTF-8 encoding,in chinese language it will have a lot of bugs such as unreadable words (trust me,it was one bug in a lot of bugs)though,we can use transcoding to avert this problem,but it has another problem:cant edit it easily.

[Mohron]

@subtank if you want to make a post about SkyClaims on www.mcbbs.net, you have my permission as long as you link to Ore for the downloads and the wiki pages you created!

I will get to making the plugin more easily translated, eventually...

[Yorkforce]

Would there be any chance of creating a full messages.conf (in english) as well so we can edit colours/titles/help menus etc?

[subtank]

something new in chinese mcbbs，some guy just translate your work by rebuilding the jar.(V0.19.1)

[Mohron]

I just need to switch over to TextTemplates so I can just include your translations in the plugin. But ultimately, I'd prefer the plugin output to respect the client's language instead of just whatever the server sets it to.

[subtank]

it not my work. it is another guy rebuil it. i still waiting you 1.0 to translate.

@Mohron Maybe this will help you https://ore.spongepowered.org/KrabsCompany/LocaleAPI. If you want, I will do the integration myself and offer you. What I offer you sends the player messages in the language of his client.
Sorry if I put it incorrectly, I am Russian and used a Google translator.

@mr-krab I'm actually working on a rewrite due to the release of GriefDefender. The goal of the rewrite is to support the same platforms as GriefDefender so I have to make the plugin not dependent on Sponge or Sponge only plugins. I'll certainly try to address this feature in the rewrite.

@Mohron You can copy the logic of the plugin that I proposed to you.
