Help wanted: Update translations #606

OzzieIsaacs · 2018-09-03T17:23:04Z

Many of the translations are outdated due to the fast evolving of the code.
Any contribution to the translations is welcome.
Just edit the to the language corresponding ".po" file in the cps/translations folder (up to the line: "#. name for aaa", approx line 1900) and create a PR request. I will include it to calibre Web.
(Editing this file will not make the text instantly translated in Calibre Web, they have to be compiled first with poedit, pyBabel, or something else...)

vigri · 2018-09-03T17:27:56Z

I can take a look at the translations for German and add Slovak if needed

OzzieIsaacs · 2018-09-03T17:32:44Z

Thanks, the German version is always in good shape. You can add Slovak if you want.

Ribero · 2018-09-09T17:14:08Z

I updated the French version. It's a fist try. I will update it more regularly and will try to take into account any suggestion, if any.

Latest translation is available in #631

eddriesen · 2018-09-23T11:30:31Z

[SOLVED]

Hi Ozzie! I've finished the Dutch translation (WOW! you did add a lot of functionality!), but I keep bumping into errors in poedit. I have 6 errors (id 17,16,442 and 129). poedit claims these are "double definitions". Is this fixable on my end? Anyhoo, I'll attacht the uncompiled PO.
messages.po.txt

It prevens me from compiling to MO

Manual via msgfmt;
`
someedgyusername@myoldnotebook:~/trans$ msgfmt ./messages.po
./messages.po:1888: dubbele definitie van een bericht...
./messages.po:94: ...dit is de plek van de eerste definitie

UPDATE: Apparently, poedit had some issues with the commented out translations in the end of the file... A working translation file is uploaded.

OzzieIsaacs · 2018-09-23T13:08:26Z

Poedit seems to get confused by the invalid marked strings (starting with #) at the end of the file.

Yup! Anyhoo, dove into the deep end and dit a pull request.... Git is a very confusing platform for the uninitiated. ;-)

candidodmv · 2018-11-22T14:22:29Z

how include new language to translate? I want bring pt-BR to the project. Thanks

OzzieIsaacs · 2018-11-24T12:35:27Z

In the root folder of the project is the template file for translations, include the translated texts in that file. You can add a folder with the translated and compiled file (the mo file) in the translation folder parallel to all the other translations and create a pull request. If you are not so familiar with git and github you could also create a new issue and upload the language file to it, I'll merge it afterwards.

joshobrienau · 2019-07-01T14:07:34Z

How can I update/make changes to the English translations, can't find any English translation option to change the default messaging.

Many of the error message or user prompts are more geared to a technical user, than a general user, which most of my users will be. Like to soften the messages throughout.

OzzieIsaacs · 2019-07-02T04:53:35Z

In the root folder you'll find the file message.pot. In this file you find all untranslated strings. Above every string you see a line in the format "# path/filename.ending:code line". Like this one:

#: cps/about.py:78
msgid "Statistics"
msgstr

No go to the code line in the said file and change the text right in the code. The consequence is, you will see the new text after a restart of calibre-web, and you break the translation of this text for anybody else (we have to re translate afterwards). If you create a pull request I can merge your changes.

joshobrienau · 2019-07-02T05:38:49Z

@OzzieIsaacs I tried that, however the text remains unchanged.
This is when I update the text in the msgid in this example editing Statistics.

#: cps/about.py:78
msgid "Statistics"
msgstr

Even if I remove the message.pot file then reboot it doesn't cause a fatal error or show any different text, text remains unchanged.

Or do you mean actually go to each individual source file and manually rewrite it there? ie go to

cps/about.py file and alter the source?

I have since updated the source code with all the required language changes for my environment, however just for ease of future updates, it'd be preferable if English was also a reference translation file, like other languages, to enable easy changes to all the English messaging throughout, without altering the source.

OzzieIsaacs · 2019-07-02T13:34:27Z

The message.pot is only a collections of all texts to translate into different languages. You have to change the sourcefile (e.g. in cps/about.py), because the texts to translated are extracted from the source, and it's not done by referencing to text_id xy and looking for this id in a text catalog.
If you provide a pull request with your changes, I can generate a new pot files (it's done automatically). If the text to translate is changed from e.g. "Crazy text" to "Not so crazy text" this text has to be changed for all languages because the meaning has changed.

minakmostoles · 2019-07-26T09:51:37Z

Today I did update and revision of the Spanish translation file. Thank you for this project is great project

RPSouto · 2019-08-20T17:26:31Z

Do you need a Portuguese version?

OzzieIsaacs · 2019-08-20T17:57:00Z

The question is more If you want to have one?
If you create a translation I will add it to the project, no question.

adocampo · 2019-08-27T11:17:37Z

Reviewed and added the missing sentences on the spanish translation.

I noticed, but, there are a missing translation (My Profile) I didn't see in the .po file. I don't know if is missing globally or just in spanish.

vicproj · 2020-06-05T21:46:00Z

JFernando122 · 2021-06-17T20:00:58Z

I'm currently updating the spanish translation, but i got some questions

above some translated lines theres a #, fuzzy comment, i should i change those transalations if i can?
Some translations include empty curly braces {}, those also go into the translation?
what exactly is "LDAP Member User Filter"?

OzzieIsaacs · 2021-06-17T20:05:34Z

@JFernando122
1: if the translation should be improved yes
2. yes, please keep the braces
3. for login with a ldap server. It is a filtering expression to find the username (more or less)

JFernando122 · 2021-06-18T01:17:19Z

ok, thanks, also while translating i found this (line 199)

I´m guessing it's supposed to be library

subdiox · 2021-07-08T22:55:41Z

Book N of TITLE (ex: Book 5 of Kimetsu no Yaiba) cannot be translated to Japanese by replacing the words "Book" and "of" respectively, because it is translated to "TITLE N巻" in Japanese (the order of the words are reversed). Is it possible to concatenate the words and translate the sentence like Book %1 of %2?

OzzieIsaacs · 2021-08-01T15:28:54Z

@subdiox: I changed it, the whole text is now translatable
@JFernando122: I'm not sure if I gave you feedback: It's corrected

arihid · 2022-11-21T06:47:14Z

Hi @OzzieIsaacs, I'm bringing Indonesian translation to Calibre-Web. I have translated it halfway through last year but forgot to finish it, and now I'm finishing it.
But I have a question, what is Plural-Forms? How do I define that? Indonesian don't have plural forms, we repeat words for plural.

Anyway here it the file.

Edit: I didn't realize the base file used is ancient. I'm now working on a newer translaion base.

Calibre-Web doesn't use this feature, so don't worry. I merged your translation into the newest nightly version of Calibre-Web
