<p>This page explains how to <b>translate off-line</b>. If you're interested in this, you probably already know what <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gettext" class="extiw" title="w:Gettext">Gettext PO</a> files are. For this reason, we'll only discuss how to use them in a wiki with the Translate extension here. Otherwise, you're probably more interested in the <a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:Translate/Translation_example" title="Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:Translate/Translation example">How to translate</a> tutorial for online translation. </p><p>More in general, you might want not to use the web interface if you have a very slow or limited internet connection or offline tools that you can't do without. Be aware, however, that the Translate extension is designed as a collaborative process. This means that you should not hold the files offline for long times, and you should always download a new file just before you start translating. Otherwise you might conflict with other translators who work in the wiki. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Export" data-mw-thread-id="h-Export"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Export"></span>Export<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Export"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Help:Extension:Translate/Off-line_translation&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Export"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>You can download any message group as Gettext PO file by choosing the <i>export for off-line translation</i> task in Special:Translate.

The header contains some extra fields shown below; the <code>msgctxt</code> for each message contains an identifier that the Translate extension needs. Some editors are known to strip either the header comments or the <code>msgctxt</code> lines, so start with a small file to make sure that your editor does not remove these – it's not funny to realize the editor was buggy after translating hundreds of messages that you cannot import back into the online system! The message documentation is exported as translation comments. </p><p>Important header fields: </p> <small><pre>"X-Language-Code: nl\n" "X-Message-Group: ext-abc\n"</pre></small> <p>In this example, <code>ext-abc</code> is the name of the message group. For translatable pages, the corresponding message group has the name "page-" + the page name (i.e. for the page "Example", the header would contain the line <code>"X-Message-Group: page-Example\n"</code>). </p><p>Example entry in a GetText .po file, translated here from English (on the "msgid" line) to German (on the "msgstr" line) : </p> <small><pre>#. [Wiki] This text is used on the history tab. #. [Wiki] msgctxt "history_short" msgid "History" msgstr "Versionsgeschichte" </pre></small> <p>Notice the line starting by <code>msgctxt</code>: it briefly explains the context of usage for the message given in the next <code>msgid</code> line. Such <code>msgctxt</code> line is optional but recommended. After importing the .po file, this contextual text will be made visible to users of the Translate UI on the wiki, and it should be kept or updated when needed. </p><p><br/> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Import" data-mw-thread-id="h-Import"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Import"></span>Import<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Import"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Help:Extension:Translate/Off-line_translation&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Import"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>There is no need to translate the file completely. Uploading partially translated message groups is perfectly fine. There are two ways to import these files. </p><p>The users with correct user rights can use <code>Special:ImportTranslations</code> to upload and import the translations. The special page processes the file, shows the changes and lets the user import them. For large files with lots of changes the importing might take multiple steps, as the processing time is limited. </p><p>Importing can also be done using a command line script in <code>Translate/script/poimport.php</code>. It's less flexible but can import everything in one go. It also needs intervention from someone with shell access to the server. </p><p>The way how imports of off-line translations are handled (or not) depends on your wiki. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Gettext_Editors" data-mw-thread-id="h-Gettext_Editors"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Gettext_Editors"></span>Gettext Editors<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Gettext_Editors"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Help:Extension:Translate/Off-line_translation&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Gettext Editors"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Here are some tools you can use to edit the files off-line. </p> <dl><dt><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.poedit.net/">POedit</a></dt> <dd>Available for all platforms supporting the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.wxwidgets.org/">wxWidgets toolkit</a>, tested on Unix with GTK+ and Windows.<br/><b>WARNING:</b> make sure you are using version 1.4.2 or above, otherwise "<code>msgctxt</code>" lines are dropped and your work cannot be processed.</dd> <dt><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://projects.gnome.org/gtranslator/">gtranslator</a></dt> <dd>Can be used in the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://gnome.org">GNOME</a> desktop environment on Unix and Linux platforms.</dd> <dt><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.kde.org/applications/development/lokalize/">Lokalize</a></dt> <dd>Uses the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.kde.org/">KDE 4</a> Desktop Environment on all platforms supporting it.
