I've revised the patches (tested OK):
- $config{lang} patch:
2006-07-26 22:28:36 +02:00
<http://people.debian.org/~roktas/patches/ikiwiki/ikiwiki-lang.diff>
2006-07-11 22:40:22 +02:00
+ Support for CGI::FormBuilder.
+ Modify Makefile.PL for l10n.
- l10n infrastructure from Koha project. (This patch must be applied with
'-p1', also, it needs a 'chmod +x l10n/*.pl' after patching.)
+ Leave templates dir untouched, use a temporary translations directory
instead.
+ Fix Makefile (it failed to update templates).

Looks like, tmpl_process3 cannot preserve line breaks in template files.
For example, it processed the following template:
Someone[1], possibly you, requested that you be emailed the password for
user
<TMPL_VAR USER_NAME> on <TMPL_VAR WIKINAME>[2].
The password is: <TMPL_VAR USER_PASSWORD>
--
ikiwiki
[1] The user requesting the password was at IP address <TMPL_VAR
REMOTE_ADDR>
[2] Located at <TMPL_VAR WIKIURL>
as (in Turkish):
Birisi[1], ki muhtemelen bu sizsiniz, <TMPL_VAR WIKINAME>[2] üzerindeki
<TMPL_VAR USER_NAME> kullanıcısına ait parolanın epostalanması isteğinde
bulundu. Parola: <TMPL_VAR USER_PASSWORD> -- ikiwiki [1] Parolayı isteyen
kullanıcının ait IP adresi: <TMPL_VAR REMOTE_ADDR>[2] <TMPL_VAR WIKIURL>

This could be easily worked around in tmpl_process3, but I wouldn't like to
maintain a separate utility.

As to the hardcoded strings in ikiwiki, I've internationalized the program,
and there is a po/ikiwiki.pot in the source that can be translated.

Danish l10n of templates and basewiki is available with the following commands:
git clone http://source.jones.dk/ikiwiki.git newsite
cd newsite
make
Updates are retrieved with this single command:
make

l10n is maintained using po4a for basewiki, smiley and templates - please send me PO files if you
translate to other languagess than the few I know about myself: <dr@jones.dk>
As upstream ikiwiki is now maintained in GIT too, keeping the master mirror in sync with upstream
could probably be automated even more - but an obstacle seems to be that content is not maintained
separately but as an integral part of upstream source (GIT seems to not support subscribing to
only parts of a repository).
For example use, here's how to roll out a clone of the [Redpill support site](http://support.redpill.dk/):
mkdir -p ~/public_cgi/support.redpill.dk
git clone git://source.jones.dk/bin
bin/localikiwikicreatesite -o git://source.redpill.dk/support rpdemo
(Redpill support is inspired by <http://help.riseup.net> but needs to be reusable for several similarly configured networks)
