Internationalization (optional)

This document helps you show notifications translated into various languages as explained in the Internationalization in Notifications document.

Translated Strings

For each language you wish to support, create a PO file and add the translated string to each of them. For example, the following steps add support for German.

1. Create the de_DE.po file as explained in the Development Workflow section:

   $ aps msgmake -l de_DE async1pn
   

2. Open the newly created file in any text editor, then add the msgid lines for the message strings used in notifications, and then for each msgid add the respective msgstr with the translated string.

   msgid "VPS Creation"
   msgstr "Die Bildung des Servers"
   
   msgid "VPS __name__ is provisioned"
   msgstr "Der VPS __name__  ist geschaffen"
   
   msgid "VM Creation"
   msgstr "Die Bildung des Servers"
   
   msgid "Provisioning of VM __name__ is started"
   msgstr "Die Bildung des Servers __name__ hat angefangen"
   
   msgid "Provisioning of VM __name__ is in progress"
   msgstr "Die Bildung des Servers __name__ dauert"
   
   msgid "Provisioning of VM __name__ is completed"
   msgstr "Der Server __name__  ist geschaffen"
   
   msgid "Server Removal"
   msgstr "Die Entfernung des Servers"
   
   msgid "Server __name__ is removed"
   msgstr "Der Server __name__ ist entfernt"
   
   msgid "The last server __name__ is removed"
   msgstr "Die Aufmerksamkeit: es ist der letzte Server entfernt - __name__"
   
   msgid "View Servers"
   msgstr "Die Übersicht der Server"
   
   msgid "View or edit VM"
   msgstr "Die Übersicht oder die Editierung des Servers"
   
   msgid "View or edit VPS"
   msgstr "Die Übersicht oder die Editierung des Servers"
