4744bd90 | 5 | </HEAD> |
6 | <BODY> | |
7 | ||
8 | <P>Thanks to its extensive use of templates, images, and message | |
9 | catalogs, CUPS can be easily translated (or customized!) to suit | |
10 | your needs. This help file will guide you through the CUPS | |
11 | localization files so you can get the most out of it.</P> | |
12 | ||
13 | <H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="INTRO">Getting Started</A></H2> | |
14 | ||
15 | <P>Start by downloading the CUPS source code from <A | |
16 | HREF="http://www.cups.org/software.php" | |
17 | TARGET="_blank">www.cups.org</A>. After you extract the files | |
18 | from the source archive, you will want to copy the following | |
19 | files and directories:</P> | |
20 | ||
21 | <UL> | |
22 | ||
d09495fa | 23 | <LI><VAR>desktop/cups.desktop</VAR> - the GNOME/KDE |
24 | desktop file pointing to the CUPS web interface</LI> | |
25 | ||
4744bd90 | 26 | <LI><VAR>doc/images/button-*.gif</VAR> - the web |
27 | interface button images</LI> | |
28 | ||
29 | <LI><VAR>doc/images/button-*.scm</VAR> - the Gimp scripts | |
30 | we use to generate the web interface button images</LI> | |
31 | ||
32 | <LI><VAR>doc/index.html</VAR> - the web interface home | |
33 | page</LI> | |
34 | ||
35 | <LI><VAR>locale/cups.pot</VAR> - the message catalog</LI> | |
36 | ||
37 | <LI><VAR>templates/*.tmpl</VAR> - the web interface | |
38 | template files</LI> | |
d09495fa | 39 | |
4744bd90 | 40 | </UL> |
41 | ||
d09495fa | 42 | <P>With the exception of the message catalogs and desktop file, |
43 | localization files are placed in subdirectories under the | |
44 | <VAR>doc</VAR> and <VAR>templates</VAR> using the locale name. | |
45 | Locale names are either <VAR>ll</VAR> or <VAR>ll_CC</VAR>, where | |
46 | "ll" is the 2-letter language code and "CC" is the 2-letter | |
47 | country code.</P> | |
4744bd90 | 48 | |
49 | <P>All non-image files must be encoded using the UTF-8 character | |
50 | set.</P> | |

52 | ||
53 | <H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="SUBMIT">Submitting a Translation for CUPS</A></H2> | |
54 | ||
d09495fa | 55 | <P>To submit a translation for inclusion in CUPS, translate the |
56 | desktop file, all of the button images, template files, the | |
4744bd90 | 57 | <VAR>index.html.in</VAR> file, and the message catalog. Place |
58 | these files in the correct subdirectory in the CUPS source code | |
59 | archive and run the following command to create an archive with | |
60 | your files:</P> | |
61 | ||
62 | <PRE CLASS="command"> | |
d09495fa | 63 | tar cvf <I>ll_CC</I>.tar.gz desktop/cups.desktop doc/<I>ll_CC</I> \ |
64 | locale/cups_<I>ll_CC</I>.po templates/<I>ll_CC</I> | |
4744bd90 | 65 | </PRE> |
66 | ||
67 | <P>Replace "ll_CC" with the locale name for your translation. | |
68 | Once you have created the archive, go to the <A | |
69 | HREF="http://www.cups.org/str.php" TARGET="_blank">CUPS Bugs | |
70 | & Features</A> page and submit a bug report, attaching the | |
71 | translation to the report.</P> | |
72 | ||
73 | ||
d09495fa | 74 | <H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="DESKTOP">The Desktop File</A></H2> |
75 | ||
76 | <P>The <VAR>desktop/cups.desktop</VAR> file provides a link to | |
77 | the CUPS web interface from desktop environments such as | |
78 | GNOME and KDE. To translate this file, add two lines to the | |
79 | bottom with the <tt>Name</tt> and <tt>Comment</tt> keys:</P> | |
80 | ||
81 | <PRE CLASS="command"> | |
82 | Name[<I>ll_CC</I>]=<I>Translation of "Manage Printing"</I> | |
83 | Comment[<I>ll_CC</I>]=<I>Translation of "CUPS Web Interface"</I> | |
84 | </PRE> | |
85 | ||
86 | ||
4744bd90 | 87 | <H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="IMAGES">Button Images</A></H2> |
88 | ||
89 | <P>The web interface button images are used to activate functions | |
90 | on the CUPS web pages. Table 1 lists the button images and the | |
91 | English text labels for those buttons. Use the supplied Gimp | |
92 | scripts to create button images that match the CUPS web interface | |
93 | and save them in the <VAR>doc/ll_CC/images</VAR> subdirectory. | |
94 | The Gimp button scripts can be installed using the following | |
95 | command:</P> | |
96 | ||
97 | <PRE CLASS="command"> | |
98 | cp doc/images/button*.scm ~/.gimp-2.2/scripts | |
99 | </PRE> | |
100 | ||
101 | <P>If you have already started the Gimp application, choose | |
102 | <VAR>Refresh Scripts</VAR> from the <VAR>Xtns->Script-Fu</VAR> | |
103 | sub-menu. The button scripts will be available under a new | |
104 | <VAR>Btns</VAR menu in the Gimp tool window.</P> | |
105 | ||
106 | <P>When you have created all of the button images, edit the | |
d09495fa | 107 | <VAR>Makedefs</VAR> file and add the locale name to the |
4744bd90 | 108 | <CODE>LANGUAGES</CODE> variable. You can then run "make |
109 | install" in the <VAR>doc</VAR> subdirectory to test the | |
110 | translated buttons.</P> | |

333 | <H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="HOMEPAGE">The Home Page</A></H2> | |
334 | ||
335 | <P>The <VAR>index.html</VAR> file is a complete HTML file that is | |
336 | displayed when the user visits "http://localhost:631/". Edit the | |
337 | existing <VAR>doc/index.html</VAR> and save it in the | |
338 | <VAR>doc/ll_CC</VAR> subdirectory so that the makefile can | |
339 | install it. Run "make install" in the <VAR>doc</VAR> subdirectory | |
340 | to test the new home page.</P> | |
341 | ||
342 | ||
343 | <H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="CATALOGS">Message Catalogs</A></H2> | |
344 | ||
345 | <P>CUPS message catalogs are GNU gettext ".po" text files that | |
346 | provide a list of localized message strings for the CUPS | |
347 | software. Message catalogs are named <VAR>cups_ll.po</VAR> or | |
348 | <VAR>cups_ll_CC.po</VAR>, where "ll" is the standard 2-letter | |
349 | abbreviation for the language and "CC" is the standard 2-letter | |
350 | abbreviation for the country.</P> | |
351 | ||
352 | <P>When translating a new message catalog, copy the | |
353 | <VAR>cups.pot</VAR> message catalog file in the <VAR>locale</VAR> | |
354 | subdirectory of the CUPS source code. For example, to start | |
355 | translating the message catalog to Canadian French, you would | |
356 | type the following commands:</P> | |
357 | ||
358 | <PRE CLASS="command"> | |
359 | cd locale | |
d09495fa | 360 | cp cups.pot cups_fr_CA.po |
4744bd90 | 361 | </PRE> |
362 | ||
d09495fa | 363 | <P>Alternatively, you can copy the existing <VAR>cups_fr.po</VAR> |
4744bd90 | 364 | message catalog and then make any necessary changes.</P> |
365 | ||
366 | <P>Once you have make your copy of the file, edit it using your | |
367 | favorite text editor or translation program to translate the text | |
368 | to the desired language.</P> | |
369 | ||
370 | <P>Finally, add your locale to the <CODE>LANGUAGES</CODE> | |
d09495fa | 371 | variable in the <VAR>Makedefs</VAR> file and run the "make |
4744bd90 | 372 | install" command in the <VAR>locale</VAR> subdirectory to test |
373 | the translation.</P> | |
374 | ||
375 | ||
376 | <H2 CLASS="title"><A NAME="TEMPLATES">Template Files</A></H2> | |
377 | ||
378 | <P>The CUPS scheduler provides a web interface that can be used | |
379 | to do many common printing and administration tasks. The built-in | |
380 | web server supports localization of web pages through the use of | |
381 | subdirectories for each locale, e.g. "fr" for French, "de" for | |
382 | German, "fr_ca" for French in Canada, and so forth.</P> | |
383 | ||
384 | <P>Template files are HTML files with special formatting | |
385 | characters in them that allow substition of variables and arrays. | |
386 | The CUPS CGI programs (<CODE>admin.cgi</CODE>, | |
387 | <CODE>classes.cgi</CODE>, <CODE>help.cgi</CODE>, | |
388 | <CODE>jobs.cgi</CODE>, and <CODE>printers.cgi</CODE>) use these | |
389 | template file to provide dynamic content for the web interface. | |
390 | Template files are installed in the | |
391 | <VAR>/usr/share/cups/templates</VAR> directory by default. Table | |
392 | 2 lists the various template files and their purpose.</P> | |
393 | ||
394 | <P>Translated versions of the template files should be saved in | |
395 | the <VAR>templates/ll_CC</VAR> subdirectory. For example, | |
396 | Canadian French template files should be saved in the | |
397 | <VAR>templates/fr_CA</VAR> subdirectory. After you have | |
398 | translated all of the templates, add the locale to the | |
399 | <CODE>LANGUAGES</CODE> variable in the | |
d09495fa | 400 | <VAR>Makedefs</VAR> file and run "make install" in the |
4744bd90 | 401 | <VAR>templates</VAR> subdirectory to test the translation.</P> |

691 | <H3><A NAME="VARIABLE">Inserting Attributes and Values</A></H3> | |
692 | ||
693 | <P>Template files consist of HTML with variable substitutions for | |
694 | named inside curley braces "{name}". Variable names are generally | |
695 | the IPP attribute names with the hyphen ("-") replaced by the | |
696 | underscore ("_") character. For example, the | |
697 | <TT>job-printer-uri</TT> attribute is renamed to | |
698 | <TT>job_printer_uri</TT>.</P> | |
699 | ||
700 | <P>Curley braces ("{" and "}") to indicate substitutions, and the | |
701 | backslash ("\") character for quoting. To insert any of these | |
702 | special characters as-is you need to use the HTML | |
703 | <CODE>&name;</CODE> mechanism or prefix each special | |
704 | character with the backslash ("\".)</P> | |
705 | ||
706 | <P>You substitute the value of a variable using | |
707 | <CODE>{NAME}</CODE> in your template file. If the variable is | |
708 | undefined then the <CODE>{NAME}</CODE> string is output | |
709 | as-is.</P> | |
710 | ||
711 | <P>To substitute an empty string if the variable is undefined, | |
712 | use <CODE>{?NAME}</CODE> instead.</P> | |
713 | ||
714 | <H3>Array Substitutions</H3> | |
715 | ||
716 | <P>The number of array elements can be inserted using | |
717 | <CODE>{#NAME}</CODE>. If the array is undefined then 0 is output. | |
718 | The current array element (starting at 1) is inserted with | |
719 | <CODE>{#}</CODE>.</P> | |
720 | ||
721 | <P>Arrays are handled using <CODE>{[NAME]</CODE> at the beginning | |
722 | of a section and <CODE>}</CODE> at the end. The information | |
723 | between the closing bracket ("]") and closing brace ("}") is | |
724 | repeated for as many elements as are in the named array. For | |
725 | example, the following template will display a list of each job | |
726 | in the <CODE>job_id</CODE> array:</P> | |

763 | condition is true and <VAR>false</VAR> is the text that is | |
764 | included if the condition is false. A value of <CODE>#</CODE> is | |
765 | replaced with the current element number (starting at 1.) The | |
