Translating
-----------
Translations are very welcome!
If you are willing to help, you will need some tools:
::
pip install Flask-Babel
Then you need to fork the project retrieve the sources:
::
git clone https://git.ziirish.me/<your_login>/burp-ui.git
cd burp-ui
git submodule update --init
pip install -r requirements.txt
You can have the list of available languages by running:
::
ls burpui/translations
New language
^^^^^^^^^^^^
If your language is not listed, you can create a new translation running the
following command:
::
./tools/bui-manage init-translation <country_code> # where <country_code> can be "de", "ru", etc.
Update translation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you want to update an existing (and/or un-complete) translation, you probably
want to have a look at the *templates* files.
An un-translated file will contain things like:
::
<h1>Some title</h1>
The string *Some title* won't be translated as is.
You need to update the template like this:
::
<h1>{{ _('Some title') }}</h1>
Then you can update the translation files with the following command:
::
./tools/bui-manage update-translation
Translation
^^^^^^^^^^^
Now you can proceed the translation in the file
*burpui/translations/<country_code>/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po*.
It looks like:
::
#: burpui/forms.py:18 burpui/templates/login.html:8
msgid "Username"
msgstr ""
You just have to put the translations in the *msgstr* line like:
::
#: burpui/forms.py:18 burpui/templates/login.html:8
msgid "Username"
msgstr "Utilisateur"
Once it's done, you can push the sources and create a Merge Request on GitLab:
::
git checkout -b translation-<country_code>
git add burpui/translations/<country_code>/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po
git commit -m "<country_code> translation"
git push -u origin translation-<country_code>
