ikiwiki should be fully internationalized.
|
||
|
||
----
|
||
|
||
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.

## template i18n

I've revised the patches (tested OK):
|
||
|
||
- $config{lang} patch:
|
||
|
||
<http://people.debian.org/~roktas/patches/ikiwiki/ikiwiki-lang.diff>
|
||
|
||
+ 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.
|

|
||
Another way to approach this would be to write a small program that outputs
|
||
the current set of templates. Now i18n of that program is trivial,
|
||
and it can be run once per language to generate localized templates.
|
||
|
||
Then it's just a matter of installing the templates somewhere, and having
|
||
them be used when a different language is enabled.
|
||
|
||
It would make sense to make the existing `locale` setting control which
|
||
templates are used. But the [[plugins/po]] plugin would probably want to do
|
||
something more, and use the actual language the page is written in.
