= Translation = == Marking Text for Translation == To mark text for translation wrap the string with the function `_()` like this: {{{ torrent.set_tracker_status(_("Announce OK")) }}} For GTK you can move the translation out of the code and into the `glade` files: {{{ Max Upload Speed: }}} For more detail see: [http://docs.python.org/library/gettext.html Python Gettext] == Translation Process == These are the overall stages in gettext translation: ''POT (Portable Object Template) files'' `->` '' PO (Portable Object) files'' `->` ''MO (Machine Object) files'' * `potfiles.in` created with `create_potfiles_in.py` * `deluge.pot` created with `gettextize.sh` * Upload `deluge.pot` located in `deluge/i18n/` to [https://translations.launchpad.net/deluge/trunk/ translation site] * Wait for the translators to translate the text. * Retrieve the updated `PO` files for each langauge from the translation site and extract to `deluge/i18n/` * The binary `MO` files for each language are generated in `setup.py` by using the `msgfmt.py` script. == Testing Translation == Verification that translations are working correctly can be performed by running deluge like this: If you do not have a particular language installed on your system it will only tranlate based on the binary MO files for Deluge so some GTK text strings will remain in English. {{{ LANGUAGE=fr deluge LANGUAGE=ru_RU.UTF-8 deluge }}}
