Localize the SinusBot

Before you begin you may check the resources if there already exists a translation. \ Is there an outdated translation and the author does not answer your request? Report the translation on the forums.

Just follow these steps:

• Make sure you have a folder called data/locales within in your SinusBot directory
• Create a new file called ru.json (if you want to create a Russian translation for example) with the following contents: {"__name": "Russian", "__code": "ru-RU"}
• Open up the web-interface of the bot and navigate to your personal settings
• Choose Russian as your language
• Then click on "edit" behind the language selection
• Fill all the text boxes next to the phrases you would like to translate
• Hit "Export" at the bottom of the page
• Copy the contents of the export box to your ru.json
• Done.

The translation interface will highlight untranslated content in yellow and phrases that have not been saved yet in violet.

We're giving out extended licenses and access to pre-releases to everyone who contributes a lot or even maintains a translation. ;-)
