DotStrike-translation

Translation of the DotStrike game

Anyone can help translate DotStrike into any language.

If you have experience with GitHub, then you know what to do. 😉

If you do not know what GitHub is or do not know how to use it, then this short guide is for you.

de.json - German translation

ru.json - Russian translation

template.json - Template for translation into any language

tr.json - Turkish translation

uk.json - Ukrainian translation

zh.json - Chinese (simplified) translation

Getting Started

The translation of a sentence consists of the text in quotation marks (original in English), a colon and the text in quotation marks (translation).

Example:

"Hello": "Привіт"

English text before colon, Ukranian text after colon.

You can get started the easy way or the hard way.

Easy way

1. You need to create a fork of the project. You can do this by clicking on the "Fork" button in the upper right corner.
2. Select the account under which you will fork.
3. You need to wait a bit while a copy of the project is being created.
4. After a successful fork, you can make changes to the project.

Hard way

To do this, you need to be able to use the git tool. I will not describe this method, it is better to use the easy way. 🙂

Editing an existing localization file

If you are editing an existing localization file, open it and click on the pencil icon. If you hover over it, the prompt "Edit this file" will appear. Make edits. Go down to the very bottom of the page and click on the "Commit changes" button.

Creating a new localization file for another language

To do this, you need to create a copy of the template.json file.

Steps:

1. You need to open the template.json file.
2. Copy content.
3. Create next to this file a new file. The file name must contain the language name. Example ukranian.json (in the future, the file name will be changed to an abbreviated one).
4. Paste copied content.
5. Edit and save using the "Commit changes" button.

If you are ready to submit the changes to us

1. Go to the "Pull requests" page at github.com/<YOUR_USERNAME>/DotStrike-translation/pulls. You can access this page by clicking on the "Pull requests" tab in your copy of the project.
2. Click on the "New pull request" button.
3. It remains only to click on the "Create pull request" button and we will receive your changes. And once again on the "Create pull request" button.

If you have any questions, you can find answers on the Internet.
