Extension Localisation Wiki using Translate/Localisation Groups

From MediaWiki.org

Jump to: navigation, search

A localisation group must be added for each extension that you wish to localise.

[edit] LocalSettings.php

The basic template below is used, but of course customized for each extension. Anything in triple triangle brackets must be altered and is listed below.

$wgHooks[ 'TranslatePostInitGroups' ][] = array( 'setupExtension<<<NAME>>>' );
function setupExtension<<<NAME>>>( &$cc ) {
	$id = 'Extension<<<NAME>>>';
	$mg = new ExtensionMessageGroup;
	$mg->setId( $id );
	$mg->setType( 'mediawiki' );
	$mg->setLabel( '<<<NAME>>>' );
	$mg->setDescription( '<<<DESCRIPTION>>>' );
	$mg->setMessageFile( '<<<NAME>>>.i18n.php' );
	$mg->namespaces = array( NS_TRANSLATE, NS_TRANSLATE + 1 );
	$cc[ $id ] = $mg;
	return true;
}
Name
Name of extension without spaces, e.g. "Translate".
Description
Description of extension (may contain wikitext). Templates can be used to allow descriptions to be defined on-wiki rather than within the

There are different types of group (such as FreeCol), but in the context of this guide only extension groups are relevant.

[edit] Message File

The message file (this should be in the standard MediaWiki message file format) must then be copied to extensions/messages/<<<NAME>>>.i18n.php.
