Jean Michault edited this page Mar 14, 2022 · 1 revision

motioneye use jinja templates to generate html pages.

  • pass your text as an argument to _() function in a jinja block, actually your text must be in esperanto. Use google translate to translate from english to esperanto if you don't know esperanto.
    • example : <span class="settings-item-label">{{ _("Pasvorto") }}</span>
    • you can see more examples in templates/main.html
  • run make in motioneye directory
  • edit the po files for languages you are able to translate, they are named locale/xx/LC_MESSAGES/motioneye.po . You can edit them with a text editor, or better with dedicated software like poedit or virtaal.
  • rerun make to take your translation changes into account
