[edit] Translating Joobsbox PHP

This is one of the easiest things and a cool feature of Joobsbox PHP. Joobsbox PHP uses gettext files for translations. This technology is an industry standard and is used among many very popular open-source software.


[edit] How does it work

A translation source consists of two files: the source (.po) and the compiled file (.mo). A source file looks like the following:

#: Controllers/CategoryController.php:38 msgid "This category does not exist." msgstr "This category does not exist."

#: Controllers/JobController.php:33 msgid "The requested job does not exist!" msgstr "The requested job does not exist!"

The .mo file is compiled using software like poEdit.

[edit] How you can help

Joobsbox PHP translations can be done online using the popular web application Rosetta from Canonical's Launchpad.

[edit] The cool part

Launchpad allows you to translate everything right there, using using your browser. If you don't know how to translate a string, just leave it out or suggest a translation and it will be reviewed by someone else.
