Instructions for translators

Language files are stored as JSON files, that contain metadata and key-value pairs for each translation.

Metadata contains the following fields:

"language-name": "English",    // The name of the language in English
"language-native": "English",  // The name of the language in its native form.
"language-charset": "default", // The character set of the language
"language-fallback": "en",     // The fallback language code (defaults to English)

language-name, and language-native are required and should be self-explanatory.

language-charset is optional and defaults to default. If the language uses a different character set, you can specify it here. Supported values are:

  • default

  • greek

  • korean

  • japanese

  • chinese-full

  • chinese-simplified

  • cyrillic

  • thai

  • vietnamese

    This will tell Eclipse which font to use for the language.

    language-fallback is optional and defaults to en_US. If a translation is missing for a key in the current language, Eclipse will fall back to the specified language. You can use this to avoid duplicating translations for similar languages.

Note: this field is not recursive, so if a translation is missing in the fallback language, it will not fall back further.

Translation process
  • Translations can be made directly.
  • Translation suggestions can be made.
  • Any authenticated user can contribute.
  • The translation uses monolingual files.
  • The translation base language is editable.
