Manual:GenerateJsonI18n.php

Details
generateJsonI18n.php file is a maintenance script to generate JSON-formatted i18n files from legacy PHP array-based MediaWiki i18n files.

Usage
php maintenance/generateJsonI18n.php phpfile jsondir

where:


 * phpfile - PHP file defining a $messages array. Required unless  is provided.
 * jsondir - directory to write the JSON files to. Will default to.

Example
Alternate way for extensions, since : This example performs the default conversions in, replacing the  file with a backwards-compatibility shim and porting messages to the  directory.

Suggested migration process
If your extension has not been converted already:


 * Make sure you have the latest code


 * Create the directory


 * Run the script


 * Update your extension's entry file to add ;


 * Commit it to Gerrit if the extension is hosted there


 * Add Siebrand and Raymond as reviewers if the extension is translated in translatewiki.net


 * Wait for review and all should go smoothly
