Application localization documentation

Source files are in client/src/locale/source and translated files pulled from Zanata in client/src/locale/target.

Generation

Will generate XLIFF files for Angular and escape inner elements in source tag because Zanata does not support them.

This script will create player_en_US.xml XLIFF file using custom strings (VideoJS plugins) and strings from videojs_en_US.json file.

It will also create server_en_US.xml and iso639_en_US.xml XLIFF file using server strings and custom strings (defined inside the script, we did not find a way to extract them from TypeScript server files).

$ npm run i18n:generate

Upload on Zanata

Push source source files (en-US) on Zanata:

$ zanata-cli push

Pull translation

Pull XLIFF files from Zanata, and unescape them (so we retrieve inner elements in source tag, used by Angular). A hook converts player and server, iso639 translation files to JSON (needed by Video.JS, and our application to have efficient runtime translation). Then, iso639 files will be merged in server files (so we have only one JSON file to serve server translations).

$ zanata-cli pull
