I18n - 国际化

关于多种语言应用程序的说明

简介

The I18n contains the translation of module in different languages.Thei folder contains two type of files .po and .pot. The .po files are the actual translation files where as .pot is the template for the translation.

The .po files should be named according to the language code of specific language and .pot should be named accroding to the module name.

以下以 account.pot 为例子

  1. "Project-Id-Version: OpenERP Server 5.0.0\n"
  2. "Report-Msgid-Bugs-To: support@openerp.com\n"
  3. "POT-Creation-Date: 2009-05-19 14:36+0000\n"
  4. "PO-Revision-Date: 2009-05-20 10:36+0000\n"
  5. "Last-Translator: <>\n"
  6. "Language-Team: \n"
  7. "MIME-Version: 1.0\n"
  8. "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
  9. "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n"
  10. "X-Launchpad-Export-Date: 2009-12-07 15:06+0000\n"
  11. "X-Generator: Launchpad (build Unknown)\n"
  13. #. module: account
  14. #: code:addons/account/account.py:0
  15. #, python-format
  16. msgid "Integrity Error !"
  17. msgstr ""

上述的文件是会计(account)模块翻译文件的模板，里面的程序是在判别所有模块里的值，在对应的语言里应该被翻译成什么。

Example of fr_FR.po for account module translates in french language

  1. # Translation of OpenERP Server.
  2. # This file contains the translation of the following modules:
  3. #     * account
  4. #
  5. msgid ""
  6. msgstr ""
  7. "Project-Id-Version: OpenERP Server 5.0.0\n"
  8. "Report-Msgid-Bugs-To: support@openerp.com\n"
  9. "POT-Creation-Date: 2009-05-19 14:36+0000\n"
  10. "PO-Revision-Date: 2010-01-04 11:19+0530\n"
  11. "Last-Translator: Anup <ach@tinyerp.co.in>\n"
  12. "Language-Team: \n"
  13. "MIME-Version: 1.0\n"
  14. "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
  15. "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n"
  16. "X-Launchpad-Export-Date: 2009-12-07 15:07+0000\n"
  17. "X-Generator: Launchpad (build Unknown)\n"
  19. #. module: account
  20. #: code:addons/account/account.py:0
  21. #, python-format
  22. msgid "Integrity Error !"
  23. msgstr "Erreur d'Intégrité !"

The above file translates the values of msgid to French in msgstr.Based on the msgid present in the .pot file. fr_FR is the language code for French language in which fr specifies the language and FR specifies the country in which the language is spoken.
