## Internationalization
|
|
|
|
The process of internationalization is pretty straight forward for Maputnik.
|
|
|
|
## Add a new language
|
|
|
|
#### 1. Edit configuration
|
|
|
|
In order to add a new translation you'll need to add it to the configuration files. Please put it in alphabetical order.
|
|
|
|
- Open [/i18next-parser.config.ts](/i18next-parser.config.ts) and add the ISO Code of your language to the `locales` array.
|
|
- Now, open [/src/i18n.ts](/src/i18n.ts) and add the ISO Code and localized name to the supported languages.
|
|
|
|
#### 2. Add the localized strings
|
|
|
|
Refresh the localization to generate a new directory under `/src/locales/` for your new language.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm run i18n:refresh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace every `__STRING_NOT_TRANSLATED__` value in the newly generated `translation.json` file with the according translation.
|
|
Make sure all the keys are translated.
|
|
|
|
#### 3. Test your new locale
|
|
|
|
Finally, test your language locally by starting a local instance of Maputnik.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm run start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Consider adding your name as a helping person for the translation of new features.
|
|
|
|
## Add localization for a new feature
|
|
|
|
If you happen to add a feature which needs some text to be translated, update the translation files.
|
|
After running, check your working copy for files and add/correct as needed.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm run i18n:refresh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The following users can help you with the relevant languages:
