| [[L10N| Translators]] contribute to a multitude of ever-changing projects and repositories, and need a central place/tool to give them a high-level view of their work. To make things worse, in Fedora we support >1 types of Version Control Systems (VCSs). The tools we provide to make the work of the Fedora Localization Project (FLP) easier include:
| |
| | |
| # An instance of GNOME's '''Damned Lies''', deployed at http://translate.fedoraproject.org/, which provides translation statistics (pull) for all the modules the FLP is interested in. Our templates differ significantly from upstream, but we try not to alter python files downstream (we prefer to submit patches upstream), although some python files do have some very small changes.
| |
| # An instance of '''Transifex''' ([https://fedorahosted.org/transifex/ source] , deployed at https://translate.fedoraproject.org/submit/, which provides a submission interface (push) for translators (members of the 'cvsl10n' group).
| |
| | |
| == Damned Lies ==
| |
| | |
| * Relevant contacts: DimitrisGlezos, DiegoZacarao.
| |
| * Important files are some xml.in files in <code>/cvs/l10n/web/flpweb/</code>.

| === Add a module to DL ===
| |
| | |
| <ol>
| |
| <li> Check anonymous checkout
| |
| <pre>cd temp
| |
| git clone http://...
| |
| </pre>
| |
| </li><li> Check out (or update) flpweb:
| |
| <pre>export CVSROOT=:ext:FEDORA_USERNAME@cvs.fedoraproject.org:/cvs/l10n
| |
| cvs co web
| |
| cd web/flpweb
| |
| <!--# OR just update:
| |
| -->
| |
| cd web/flpweb
| |
| cvs -n up
| |
| cvs up -C
| |
| </pre>
| |
| <li> Add relevant entries to [http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/web/flpweb/people.xml.in?root=l10n&view=markup people.xml.in] , [http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/web/flpweb/fedora-modules.xml.in?root=l10n&view=markup fedora-modules.xml.in] , [http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/web/flpweb/releases.xml.in?root=l10n&view=markup releases.xml.in] ).
| |
| </li><li> Test changes:
| |
| <pre>make
| |
| python update-stats.py <modulename>
| |
| </pre>
| |
| {{Admon/caution | Open up browser at http://flpweb.localhost/module/MODULENAME and make sure stats show up OK.}}
| |
| </li><li> Update translations
| |
| <pre>cd po
| |
| ls *po | cut -f1 -d'.' | xargs -I'{}' intltool-update -d '{}'
| |
| cd ..
| |
| </pre>
| |
| </li><li> Commit, mark as LIVE:
| |
| <pre>cvs commit -m 'Added module foo. Tested, marking as LIVE'
| |
| cvs tag -F LIVE
| |
| </pre>
| |
| </li><li> Let people know: Send an email to [mailto:fedora-trans-list@redhat.com fedora-trans-list] and let translators know, or ask the maintainer to do it (better).
| |
| </li></ol>
| |
| | |
| == Transifex: Setup submissions (eponymous checkout/in) ==
| |
| | |
| * Relevant contacts: DimitrisGlezos, MikeMcGrath, RickyZhou.
| |
| | |
| === Part 1: Setup the keys ===
| |
| {{ Admon/note | If the repository is on Fedora Hosted Projects, then have a group administrator add the "transif" user to their FAS group.}}
| |
| | |
| <ol>
| |
| <li> SSH to the puppet server
| |
| <pre>ssh bastion.fedoraproject.org
| |
| ssh puppet1
| |
| </pre>
| |
| </li><li> Create an SSH key and add it to the private CVS repository:
| |
| <pre>N='MODULENAME'; ssh-keygen -t dsa -C transifex-$N -f id_dsa-$N
| |
| </pre>
| |
| </li><li> Add the SSH key filename to configs/web/applications/transifex-ssh-add.sh.
| |
| </li><li> Send the public key of the key to the module owner and ask him to create a user on his VCS with this public key. If they can, they may restrict the user's access only to certain files (eg. in the po/ subdirectory). Continue to the next step when you receive an affirmative reply.
| |
| </li></ol>
| |
| | |
| === Part 2: Check access ===
| |
| <ol>
| |
| <li> SSH again as last step.
| |
| </li><li> Check eponymous checkout:
| |
| <pre>ssh app3
| |
| sudo -H -u transifex -s
| |
| export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/var/lib/transifex/ssh-agent-sock-transifex
| |
| ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_dsa-REPONAME
| |
| cd temp
| |
| git clone git+ssh://...
| |
| git checkout BRANCHNAME
| |
| </pre>
| |
| </li><li> Check eponoymous checkin:
| |
| <pre>cd MODULENAME/po
| |
| git commit -m 'Testing Transifex instance on Fedora with a very minor change. Please ignore.'
| |
| git push
| |
| </pre>
| |
| </li></ol>
| |
| | |
| === Part 3: Add to transifex ===
| |
| <ol>
| |
| <li> Navigate to https://translate.fedoraproject.org/submit/repo/add and add the repo.
| |
| </li><li> Navigate to https://translate.fedoraproject.org/submit/module/add and add the module as disabled. ({{Template:Caution}} Sometimes the repo isn't added and the server needs restart!?)
| |
| * If the branch name doesn't exist in the list:
| |
| <pre>tg-admin shell
| |
| m=Module.selectBy(name='yumex')[0]
| |
| m.name
| |
| m.branches
| |
| b=Branch(name='yumex-2.0')
| |
| m.addBranch()
| |
| </pre>
| |
| </li><li> Open up the console and check that the module checks out correctly:
| |
| <pre>tg-admin shell
| |
| m=Module.selectBy(name='yumex')[0]
| |
| m.name
| |
| m.checkout()
| |
| m.disabled = False
| |
| </pre>
| |
| </li><li> Login to the web front-end and commit a file. https://translate.fedoraproject.org/submit/module/MODULENAME
| |
| </li></ol>
| |
| | |
| === Part 4: Let people know ===
| |
| | |
| # Send an email to the module maintainer and let him know
| |
| # [mailto:fedora-trans-list@redhat.com?subject=New%20module%20added%20in%20Transifex:%20MODULENAME Send an email] to [mailto:fedora-trans-list@redhat.com fedora-trans-list] and let translators know, or ask the maintainer to do it (better).
| |
| | |
| | |
| == Troubleshooting and Resolution ==
| |
| | |
| === Module statistics in DL show various errors and warnings ===
| |
| | |
| Most likely the module provides a POT file instead of having i18n support through <code>intltool</code>, which can build the POT on the fly, list available languages in <code>po/LINGUAS</code> etc. This is usually normal, although it could be considered a good opportunity to remind developers to use intltool. :)
| |
| | |
| === Module statistics in DL are inexistent or weird ===
| |
| | |
| Someone added a module without checking its correctness with <code>python update-stats.py <modulename></code>. XML files need editing.
| |
| | |
| === Start/stop transifex service ===
| |
| | |
| You will need the transifex SSH key passphrase for this.
| |
| | |
| <pre># If ssh-agent isn't already running:
| |
| sudo -u transifex /srv/tg/transifex/ssh-add.sh
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| <pre>ssh app{3,4}
| |
| | |
| sudo supervisorctl start transifex
| |
| | |
| sudo supervisorctl stop transifex
| |
| | |
| sudo supervisorctl restart transifex
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| === Update only a few modules ===
| |
| | |
| <pre>#!/bin/bash
| |
| | |
| export MODULES='module1 module2'
| |
| export BACKUPDIR=/var/tmp/l10n-data/scratchdir/temp/
| |
| | |
| mkdir -p $BACKUPDIR
| |
| cd /srv/web/translation/
| |
| | |
| for m in $MODULES
| |
| do
| |
| mv /var/tmp/l10n-data/scratchdir/{cvs,svn,hg,git}/$m.* $BACKUPDIR
| |
| python update-stats.py $m /var/log/fedora-l10n/update-stats.<code>date +\%F</code>.log
| |
| done
| |
| </pre>
