Translations

[pkrolkgp]

It would be nice if we can help and translate planka to different languages.

[meltyshev]

Hi! Sorry that we don't have some documentation about that, still focused on releasing a new version. I'll leave simple documentation here and pin this issue.

Translation files located in the client/src/locales folder.

1. Make a copy of the en folder as de folder (for example for the German language)
2. Change translations inside the copied folder
3. Make a pull request

Or you can send translations here. I'll add them.

[pkrolkgp]

Thanks for creating image, but how i can change the language?

[meltyshev]

Ah, sorry. Currently, we haven't implemented a language change in the user settings. But you can open DevTools (F12) -> Application -> expand Local Storage menu and choose your domain, then you need to change the i18nextLng value.

[pkrolkgp]

Maybe for the future translations you can use some service like Weblate

[meltyshev]

Yes, it would be more convenient. I will try to do it after releasing the first version. Thanks!

Czech language, much appreciate
czech_language.zip

[meltyshev]

@michal-volf, thanks for the translations! Docker image with new language will be available in 1 hour.

[almereyda]

If you wanted, there is an independent Weblate instance at https://weblate.allmende.io/ you could use for your FLOSS.

I appreciate your work. I can hardly find one which is adapted to the mobile phone.
Here is the chinese language file, please add it to your project. Thanks a lot.
chinese_language.zip

I just got into https://crowdin.com/ and i think it's something you should consider instead translating by hand.

[leonardobarrosdev]

I got translate to PT-BR, but in the moment I'm receive a problem how this:

error: Malformed hook! (session)
[server] error: Hooks should be a function with one argument (sails)
[server] error: But instead, got: true
[server] [nodemon] app crashed - waiting for file changes before starting...

Someone help me? If that be complex, call me on Discord, please: LB#3121

hello,
I send the korean language file, please add it.

korean_language.zip

[xtay573269555]

I find a translation mistake in the app, but it is not related with the language package. Whatever, i post it here, maybe you can help to correct it.

The file is /app/public/static/js/683.e8a7c172.chunk.js in the docker container. The strings need to change from \u5b9e\u8df5 to \u65f6\u95f4.

[WofWca]

There is a similar project, with a lot of similar strings, and the same license:
https://kolaente.dev/vikunja/frontend/src/branch/main/src/i18n/lang/en.json
Maybe it makes sense to unite the efforts somehow, cross-use the strings.

I just started a Dutch translation. Will be done soon (tomorrow probably).

But it's been a couple years since I used github and made a pull request. Should I make a new branch and commit the changes there? Or should I commit the changes to the master branch when I'm done translating and double-checking?

I know I could just place the .zip here. But I'd like to take this opportunity to refresh my github skills.

Thanks!

[WofWca]

@Istria1704 You commit changes to a different branch in your fork, you probably don't have write access in this repo.

[Istria1704]

@WofWca ,
So, I fork the repo. Then create a new branch called 'Translation Dutch'. I commit all the changes to that new branch. And when I'm done, I make a pull request. Correct?

[WofWca]

@Istria1704 yes
Although you can't have spaces in a branch name

[covaliandrei]

Hi !
I've made a pull request with romanian language .

https://github.com/plankanban/planka/pull/555/commits

It is my first pull request, so correct me, if I do something wrong.
Thank you !

Hello Team,
I have forked the main Planka project & translated into Bulgarian. Shall I open a PR or attach it as zip package here? Thank you.

Hi and thanks for translating! PR will be easier to accept and you'll also be listed as a contributor :)
