Allow localization

[yarons]

Please add some i18n framework to allow localization of the product.

Thank you!

I noticed a pull request #119 was created for this issue that hasn't made it into a release yet. What kind of help is still wanted there?

[yarons]

It looks great, now we can either leave it like that or connect it to a localization platform to ease the translation:
Weblate and TranslateWiki are open source, Weblate offers commercial support while TranslateWiki doesn't.
Transifex and Crowdin, both closed source with free open source hosting.

I think it's better to wait until @olekenneth will finish his localization prep and we can add it when all the files are ready for localization and the PO file is as wide-spread as possible.

Sure (and it was not that I was looking for work, just was interested in having a localized version so I can send the log messages to my Home Mini). I was asking because the last update of that pull request was from almost a year ago and I wasn't sure if it was still being worked on.

[olekenneth]

I think I got it working. I'll try to find the code and commit it

[yarons]

Cool, do you need my assistance with Weblate migration or any other platform? @comradekingu

[olekenneth]

I used this: https://www.transifex.com/olekenneth/teams/117391/nb_NO/

[yarons]

It's inaccessible for me, can you make this project public so I can join?

[olekenneth]

I'm not sure if that's possible? I can invite a username or email to my team. Maybe switch to better platform?

[yarons]

Weblate is fully open source and allows 30 days before confirming your open source license.
Transifex organizations can be published, this is my organization:

[comradekingu]

Happy to help if you use Weblate. Either set up shop on https://weblate.bubu1.eu/ or https://hosted.weblate.org/hosting/
and add "kingu".
Transifex is the worst of all possible options.

[olekenneth]

Maybe @Forceu will create that? Doesn't make sense for me to control it.

[Forceu]

Sorry guys that I haven't looked into this much any sooner. Unfortunately I do not have a lot of spare time for this project at the moment. I created a hosted version with Weblate which can be accessed at https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/barcode-buddy/

I added @comradekingu as an administrator, let me know your usernames so I can add you as well

[yarons]

Cool, mine is @yaron.

There are no components yet, we may need your help adding the appropriate git permissions.

[Forceu]

Thanks I added you as well. I am not sure how exactly to add the components, I assume I entered something incorrectly; do you know how to add a component (or can you do it from the weblate interface)?

[PiAir]

I created an account @PiAir at weblate also, but maybe it's best to leave me as non-administrator so you have someone to test it from that end as soon as you've set it up?

[comradekingu]

Up and running now on https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/barcode-buddy/
Are there any other strings/resources to add?
Where are the Android strings?

nb_NO translation without a firm understanding of what "consume" constitutes also made.
Should arrive as a PR.

@Forceu If you can add a webhook, as per
https://docs.weblate.org/no/latest/admin/continuous.html#github-setup
and merge #185 (merged)
I think that will do.

Possibly the https://github.com/weblate user needs to be added to the org.
Sometimes GitHub complains about that, but I don't know why and when.

[PiAir]

Dutch also done.

[Forceu]

Awesome, thanks a lot guys! I will do the German translation tomorrow and then have a look on how to integrate it into Barcode Buddy.

[yarons]

That's awesome, I would also like to help with RTL, is there a way to add "dir=rtl" to the HTML/body tag when Hebrew is selected? this way I can make those changes without modifying the LTR (English) CSS stylesheet.

[Forceu]

First of all thanks to everyone who helped translating! In the last months I haven't had enough time to incorporate the translations, but I have not forgotten about it. As soon as I have enough time (or someone creates a PR), this will be merged.
