Description

Prologue

The Nextcloud community on Transifex produces the translations of your app. To this end, the app author undertakes to comply with the following requirements:

  • The app must be available in the Nextcloud App Store. Should the app be removed from the store, the translation work on Transifex will be paused or the resource removed.
  • The app author must create an account on Transifex and join the Nextcloud project. This makes it easier to respond to queries regarding the app’s strings.

👤 App repository

To be done by you

  • Link to your repository: https://github.com/ernolf/files_sharing_raw

  • If the app is not in the Nextcloud organisation

  • Create file l10n/.gitkeep with empty content

  • Add .l10nignore to exclude compiled JS files and thirdparty code, e.g. ignoring compiled javascript assets and composer PHP dependencies in the vendor/ directory:

    js/
    vendor/
    
  • Create file .tx/config with the following content, replace {{APPID}} with your app id 3 times:

    [main]
    host     = https://www.transifex.com
    lang_map = hu_HU: hu, nb_NO: nb, sk_SK: sk, th_TH: th, ja_JP: ja, bg_BG: bg, cs_CZ: cs, fi_FI: fi
    
    [o:nextcloud:p:nextcloud:r:{{APPID}}]
    file_filter = translationfiles/<lang>/{{APPID}}.po
    source_file = translationfiles/templates/{{APPID}}.pot
    source_lang = en
    type        = PO
    
  • ⚙️ Validate your repository and translation strings:

    bash translations/validateSyncSetup.sh Owner Repository
    
  • Name of the Transifex user: ernolf (or raphael.gradenwitz@googlemail.com)

    For details see https://nextcloud.com/translation/ .

Research direction

Start with the checklist and the referenced translations/validateSyncSetup.sh, then inspect .tx/config, .l10nignore, and l10n/.gitkeep in the app repository. Follow the documented Docker sync command and verify that a Transifex resource and sync commit appear; completion requires the repository, sysadmin, and translation-team checklist items to be addressed.
