Revision as of 22:28, 11 October 2010

Cumulus does not directly support languages other than English, however the user community has converted the core web template files into a number of languages, listed below.


Limitations

  • Tous les textes des fichiers web ont été traduits.
  • Les Phases Lunaires et les prévisions sont disponibles pour traduction à patrir de La version 1.8.8 build 872 de Cumulus, via le fichier strings.ini
  • Le module enfichable en temps réel de Cumulus est présentement disponible en anglais seulement.
  • Il reste quelques phrases de Cumulus qui sont non adjustable -- majoritairement des articles entre la date et l'heure
  • Les textes en popup sur les 'jauges' sont présentement en anglais

How was it done

There are six files that need to be translated to the new language.

  • indexT.htm
  • todayT.htm
  • yesterdayT.htm
  • recordT.htm
  • gaugesT.htm
  • trendsT.htm


The first five are simply a substitution of the English phrase for the new language.

'trendsT.htm' required more thought as the majority of the page contains graphs generated by Cumulus in English. User 'beteljuice' was able to write some excellent Javascript which over-prints the English tags with the alternative. Full details are held within the 'trendsT.htm' included in any one of the language sets below.


Translation

If you are able to help in the translation, this is a relatively simple process. Please contact Daj if you would like to offer your services. I have a spreadsheet which you can complete via GoogleDocs, Excel or OpenOffice; it has 82 words/phrases to be translated and should only take a short amount of time.
