Olive: [Translation] Bosnian

[elsandosgrande]

So, I would like to be able to add Bosnian translations in the future when I have time (school is a pain), or even now a bit at a time during the weekends and whatnot, but I have no idea where to start or what to use to achieve that. Also, I am still in the web development sphere as far as coding goes, so finer-grain instructions would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance and I hope I can also pitch in with what I can do!

I've written a tutorial that should help once you get time to write a translation: https://github.com/olive-editor/olive/wiki/Translations

If you can provide one, it'll be very much appreciated!

[elsandosgrande]

Thank you and you're welcome!

EDIT: It seems the packages are not standalone in Arch (I run Antergos, but the repos are the same and the Antergos repo doesn't have them either). Running pakku -Ss linguist and pakku -Ss lupdate gave me nothing useful (or nothing at all with the second one), so do append that to the page if you have time.

According to the Arch Wiki, it looks like Qt Linguist is packaged with qt5-tools. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/qt#Tools

@itsmattkc I meant to say that I thought it would be good to add that it is not standalone on Arch, but part of the tools package.

@elsandosgrande I've provided a revision with some links for different platforms.

[elsandosgrande]

Lovely! Also, @itsmattkc , here's my progress tracker for the translation work.

[itsmattkc]

Excellent, thank you for your work so far.

[itsmattkc]

I shall close this for now since you've started working on it. If you have any issues, you can feel free to comment more here.

[elsandosgrande]

Alright.

EDIT: Oh, just how regularly do the CI builds get packaged (I'd like to be able to get in sync with them to try as recent of a version of my translations out as possible through them, as building locally is a pain as far as waiting goes, let alone that I can't recreate what pakku does, or any other AUR helper for that matter)?

@elsandosgrande CI builds are uploaded after every commit. When committing, CI runs and after finished its uploaded to github.

[elsandosgrande]

Oooh, OK, so I don't have to be on a schedule. Hooray!

[elsandosgrande]

One more question. Is there anywhere where the progress-tracking link could be put for those interested to monitor (I don't think many people go through the closed issues in general, let alone for looking into the progress of a translation)?

[itsmattkc]

I've been considering making a Wiki page to show the status of all the translations (something like https://github.com/OpenOrienteering/mapper/wiki/Translation). I'm not exactly sure how to set this up to work automatically, but I'm sure it's possible.

[elsandosgrande]

Actually, you should also add the symbols reference (it took me a while to figure out that & designates an alt combo key and that %1 is a placeholder) and other relevant info from that site (for now, you could just add my link to that page and note which languages those are, at least until you get to the automated progress tracker, since I keep updating the project with notes as I work on the translations, as I have the project open in a tab in an adjacent virtual desktop/workspace).
