Como criar pacotes de idioma localizados do sistema

Observações

• TODOS OS ARQUIVOS DEVEM SER SALVOS EM UTF8 NO BOM (para símbolos não-ascii, como letras com acento etc.)

• O componente localise pode auxiliar na criação e atualização dos arquivos INI

• Para instalação de arquivos INI de extensões de terceiros no Joomla, veja J2.5:Criando pacotes de idiomas extenos

• Para os pacotes de idiomas do Joomla 2.5, veja J2.5:Criando um pacote de idioma para o Joomla!

• Desde o Joomla! 3.2.0, en-GB sempre carrega primeiro. Sendo assim, se uma string estiver faltando ou há um erro de leitura no pacote de idioma, o valor em inglês será exibido.

• A versão em desenvolvimento atual do Joomla pode ser encontrada na Página do Sistema de Gerenciamento de Conteúdo Joomla! no Gituhub

Pacotes de Idioma Completos

* pt-BR é o prefixo do idioma Português Brasileiro. Um pacote de idioma completo contém traduções para as áreas do site e do administrador.

1. No caso de um pacote COMPLETO o pacote é composto de 3 arquivos quando zipped.
   • pkg_pt-BR.xml
   • site_pt-BR.zip
   • admin_pt-BR.zip
2. Nome do pacote
   • pt-BR_joomla_lang_full_3.7.0.1.zip
3. Arquivos necessários para desinstalar!ao parcial
   • cada pacote deve conter pt-BR.lib_joomla.ini e a pt-BR.localise.php que permitem ao usuário apagar a tradução do site ou do administrador.
   • IMPORTANTE: como alguns arquivos INI são necessários na área pública e algumas mudanças surgiram no carregamento dos arquivos INI de plugins, é necessário incluir algumas partes do administrador no pacote final, mesmo que só para um pacote 'somente site'. Veja abaixo O Pacote Somente Site

Um arquivo pkg_pt-BR.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Observações:

• pt-BR.lib_joomla.ini : tenha um cópia em admin e site. Pelo menos em site, se criar um "pacote somente para o site". Veja abaixo.
• pt-BR.css : Desde a versão 1.7 este arquivo pode ser inserido na parte ADMINISTRATOR se quiser mudar as fontes exibidas na interface.
• pt-BR.xml : Note the file="meta" tag, telling it's the basic xml holding info about the pack.
• install.xml : Obrigatório! Este arquivo permite a instalação/desinstalação do idioma. Note file="meta"
• pt-BR.localise.php : tenha uma cópia em admin e site ou pelo menos em site, se criar "pacote somente para o site". Confira abaixo.
• Diretório media destination="pt-BR" : Se necessitar colocar um calendário específico

Todos os arquivos INI

Atenção a nova formatação!

• Aspas duplas devem ser escritas no valor da string como "_QQ_" ou como "
• A partir do 3.7.0 aspas duplas seguidas do caracter de escape \" podem ser usadas ao invés de "_QQ_" que vai se tornar obsoleto no 4.0.

• <firstDay>1</firstDay> é usado para o ícone do Calendário para indicar qual é o primeiro dia da semana em um idioma. 0 é domingo, 1 é segunda-feira etc.
• <weekEnd>0,6</weekEnd> é usado para o Calendário e mostra os dias da semana em cinza. 0,6 é sábado e domingo, 1 seria sexta-feira.
• <calendar>gregorian</calendar> é usado para o Calendário Jalali e vai adaptar a exibição do calendário para as línguas Persas.

pt-BR.localise.php

Esse arquivo deve estar presente pelo menos no zip do site

Esclarecimento sobre esse arquivo: ele substitui pt-BR.ignore.php e pode ser customizando, dependendo do idioma.

• Ignora busca de palavras.

• Define os limites máximos e mínimos para o tamanho das buscas.

• Define o número de caracteres a exibir no resultado da busca.

• Define a funcionalidade plural específica de certos idiomas, onde o valor da string pode mudar dependendo da contagem (Por exemplo, Russo).

• Define custom transliteration (i.e. when NOT using the Unicode URLS parameter in Global Configuration) to ensure proper change of some alphabets to ascii for the alias used when SEF is on. (The transliteration which is now default in 1.7 should take care of all latin-based languages.)

• Define a custom calendar by adding a function as well as some js files

ALWAYS SAVE THIS FILE AS UTF8 NO BOM if it contains non-ascii glyphs (accented letters, etc.) Ini files can be saved with BOM (Joomla deals with that), but not xmls and php files.

The Site-only pack

Concerning those of you providing "site only" packs:

I.e. IT IS NECESSARY TO PROVIDE AN ADMIN PACK WITH ALL FILES, SOME OF THEM SHOULD BE TRANSLATED and to post a unique package as for a real "full" pack (See above).

Why? ==> because some plugin ini files are used in front-end! Here is a typical administrator install.xml in this case. Example for 3.3.x, the files to translate are indicated by =======> :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<extension version="3.3" client="administrator" type="language" method="upgrade">

Frequent Asked Questions

Why we use .ini files instead of .po .mo

INI files were choosen in 2006 for several reasons:

• There was no specific app to deal with .po on all platforms (Poedit was not available on Windows)
• Anyone, even without any code knowledge, could create/edit an ini file
• ini files are readable while .po are not
• You can't load more than one .po file per page.

but not only, and this is why it is better to go on:

the following is an example picked from Wordpress of the code in a simple .php file (BTW WP does NOT use any plurals, as I could see in their .po files):

get_current_screen()->add_help_tab( array(
        'id'      => 'publish-box',
        'title'   => __('Publish Settings'),
        'content' => $publish_box,
    ) );

    $discussion_settings  = '<p>' . __('<strong>Send Trackbacks</strong> - Trackbacks are a way to notify legacy blog systems that you&#8217;ve linked to them. Enter the URL(s) you want to send trackbacks. If you link to other WordPress sites they&#8217;ll be notified automatically using pingbacks, and this field is unnecessary.') . '</p>';
    $discussion_settings .= '<p>' . __('<strong>Discussion</strong> - You can turn comments and pings on or off, and if there are comments on the post, you can see them here and moderate them.') . '</p>';

    get_current_screen()->add_help_tab( array(
        'id'      => 'discussion-settings',
        'title'   => __('Discussion Settings'),
        'content' => $discussion_settings,
    ) );
} elseif ( 'page' == $post_type ) {
    $page_attributes = '<p>' . __('<strong>Parent</strong> - You can arrange your pages in hierarchies. For example, you could have an &#8220;About&#8221; page that has &#8220;Life Story&#8221; and &#8220;My Dog&#8221; pages under it. There are no limits to how many levels you can nest pages.') . '</p>' .
        '<p>' . __('<strong>Template</strong> - Some themes have custom templates you can use for certain pages that might have additional features or custom layouts. If so, you&#8217;ll see them in this dropdown menu.') . '</p>' .
        '<p>' . __('<strong>Order</strong> - Pages are usually ordered alphabetically, but you can choose your own order by entering a number (1 for first, etc.) in this field.') . '</p>';

    get_current_screen()->add_help_tab( array(
        'id' => 'page-attributes',
        'title' => __('Page Attributes'),
        'content' => $page_attributes,
    ) );
}

This for GetText:

__('<strong>Parent</strong> - You can arrange your pages in hierarchies. For example, you could have an &#8220;About&#8221; page that has &#8220;Life Story&#8221; and &#8220;My Dog&#8221; pages under it. There are no limits to how many levels you can nest pages.')

It is simpler with ini files:

JText::_("SOME_CONSTANT")

Working with plurals

Some languages like Russian do NOT have the same plurals as English. They need to add strings to fit their definitions. Joomla CMS provides a solution for it and it can be seen in the file localise.php added to the language package. For example: Concerning plurals, this is the Russian plural:

public static function getPluralSuffixes($count)
    {
        if ($count == 0) {
            $return = array('0');
        } else {
            $return = array(($count%10==1 && $count%100!=11 ? '1' : ($count%10>=2 && $count%10<=4 && ($count%100<10 || $count%100>=20) ? '2' : 'MORE')));
        }
        return $return;
    }

And this is the Scottish gaelic one:

public static function getPluralSuffixes($count) {
        if ($count == 0 || $count > 19) {
            $return =  array('0');
        }
        elseif($count == 1 || $count == 11) {
               $return =  array('1');
        }
        elseif($count == 2 || $count == 12) {
               $return =  array('2');
        }
        elseif(($count > 2 && $count < 12) || ($count > 12 && $count < 19)) {
                $return =  array('FEW');
        }
        return $return;
     }

Now compare with en-GB:

public static function getPluralSuffixes($count) {
        if ($count == 0) {
            $return =  array('0');
        }
        elseif($count == 1) {
            $return =  array('1');
        }
        else {
            $return = array('MORE');
        }
        return $return;
    }

This means that when we have in en-GB:

COM_BANNERS_BANNERS_N_ITEMS_CHECKED_IN_0="No banner successfully checked in"
COM_BANNERS_BANNERS_N_ITEMS_CHECKED_IN_1="%d banner successfully checked in"
COM_BANNERS_BANNERS_N_ITEMS_CHECKED_IN_MORE="%d banners successfully checked in"

In Russian they need:

COM_BANNERS_BANNERS_N_ITEMS_CHECKED_IN_0="Ни один баннер не был разблокирован"
COM_BANNERS_BANNERS_N_ITEMS_CHECKED_IN_1="%d баннер успешно разблокирован"
COM_BANNERS_BANNERS_N_ITEMS_CHECKED_IN_2="%d баннера успешно разблокировано"
COM_BANNERS_BANNERS_N_ITEMS_CHECKED_IN_MORE="%d баннеров успешно разблокировано"

Standard ISO codes for naming language packages

The official link concerning Country codes is: https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#search

Joomla uses alpha-2 codes:

CS was the official country code of Tchecoslovakia BEFORE it was separated into the Czeck Republic (CZ) and Slovakia (SK)

Our Lang tags are composed of 2 parts:

• the languagecode
• the countrycode

Here is the official list for language code: http://www.iso.org/iso/home/standards/language_codes.htm

When possible we use the 2 letters language code, otherwise we use 3. For example we have for Joomla

ckb-IQ for Kurdish Sorani

srp-ME for Montenegrin
