Re: [Maposmatic-dev] How to develop with translations on Transifex?

[Hakan Tandogan]

Hi Maxime,

you are right, this is something I should (and will) describe better in 
the wiki and the README files in the source.

Basically, all you need to do is to push your change to the source 
files, which you did with the change [1], and wait for magic to happen :-)

The script "scripts/transifex-extract-keys.sh" will then extract the new 
.pot file, push that change to the git repository and transifex. If you 
really want, you can run this script yourself from the "scripts" 
directory, but you can also simply wait for my Jenkins instance to pick 
up the git change and run that script itself.

As you might have recognized, at 20:03 today this did happen, Jenkins 
noticed your push and ran the script, thereby updating git [2] and 
Transifex [3]

We can already see on transifex that you have added translations for 
Dutch, German and French. Those changes will be picked up again by the 
script "scripts/transifex-fetch-translations.sh" and the .po files will 
be accordingly adapted and pushed back to git. Expect this change to 
happen about 21:00 MET (as of the writing of this mail, this should 
happen in about 45 minutes).

I will put all of this information into the wiki as soon as find a few 
free minutes to write proper documentation.


Regards,
Hakan
