I'm interested in getting Launchpad updated more often since I
sometimes want to translate new features without waiting a week.
I suppose the reason Launchpad isn't updated more regularly is that
it's a chore to do so. What exactly is the procedure? Perhaps I can
write a program to completely automate it?
I found launchpad.pl in applications/editors/josm/i18n in OSM's SVN.
When run it produces a tarball like
"launchpad_upload_josm_2009-09-18T17_52_42.tgz" which presumably is
manually uploaded to launchpad.
Where is it uploaded?
How are all the .po files retrieved from Launchpad every week and put
back into JOSM? Does someone go to
https://translations.launchpad.net/josm/trunk/+export then request a
download, wait until the tarball shows up in the inbox, manually
extract it, build and commit josm-translate.jar to SVN?
is there a better way to do it? It's relatively painful to script
something which requires E-Mail to work (as opposed to just a web
form)
Steps:
- Do svn up for JOSM and all plugins
- Go to launchpad and log in.
- Go to exports and request all po's, wait for e-mail
- Take the URL from e-mail and pass it to ./launchpad.pl
- Upload the resulting tar-file to launchpad.
- Checkin changes in SVN and JOSM (need account for both to do so).
When your problem is only to have the ability to translate new strings:
- svn update JOSM and all plugins
- "ant" in i18n
- Upload the .pot file to launchpad
