This repository holds themes for the edX Credentials Service.
Build the assets by running make build. Compiled assets should be committed to the repository so that they are
accessible by the Credentials Service when the package is installed.
Run make base_requirements to install dependencies necessary for running i18n commands. Note: this will install Django and is best done from within a Python virtualenv.
To mark strings in templates/partials for translation, simply wrap them in one of Django's built-in translation functions. See https://docs.Djangoproject.com/en/1.11/topics/i18n/translation/#internationalization-in-template-code for more details.
Extract strings that have been marked for translation by running make extract_translations. This command will produce a gettext .po file, ./conf/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/django.po, which may be uploaded to Transifex (or another translation provider) where the strings can be translated.
Compile translated strings by running make compile_translations. This will produce a .mo file for each .po in the repo. The .mo files are read by Django and are used to provide translations in the running application.
In order to develop in devstack, make sure your devstack is running, then:
