Translating Who Goes First

The easiest way to help translate Who Goes First is to use the translate.whogoest1st.com web translation service, called Weblate.

Using the translation service

  1. Register for an account.
  2. Click the activation link in your email.
  3. Go to the Who Goes First project page in the translate tool.
  4. Selected the language you wish to translate.
  5. Find strings you want to translate and suggest translations.

See the Weblate translators guide for more detailed instructions.

Requesting a new language

If your language is not listed in Weblate, please file a new issue on GitHub describing the language you would like added.

Or, if you are comfortable with code, follow the instructions below to add a new language and send a pull request.

Translating locally

First set up a development environment as described in CONTRIBUTING.md.

Extracting messages

Extract messages to pull messages out of Python files and templates for translation.

pybabel extract -F babel.cfg --no-wrap -o messages.pot .

Then update the language catalog so that all language files get the new messages.

pybabel update -i messages.pot -d ./translations

Adding a new language

After extracting messages, you can add a new language to the catalog.

pybabel init -i messages.pot -d ./translations -l fr

You also must add the language to the LANGUAGES dictionary in whogoesfirst.py.

Updating existing translations

Run poedit and translate text.

Compile translations so that they appear in the app.

pybabel compile -d ./translations

You can test that the messages appear in the app by running the development version.

python whogoesfirst.py
