There are two different types of language specific resources:
- a key/value map in JSON format used by the UI for labeling UI components, and
- various JSON Schema files, specifying the name, type, description, default value of configuration attributes of various configuration entities.
First are located under src/main/webapp/assets/locale/##.json, with ## as the
ISO 639-1 two-letter code of the language
(e.g. es for Spain, pt for Portuguese, ru for Russian).
The second are located under src/main/webapp/assets/schema/. For other languages than English, a
subdirectory with the ISO 639-1 two-letter code of the
language has to be created, including copies of that JSON Schema files with translated values for
"title" and "description" JSON properties.
Alternatively to directly editing that JSON files, you may translate title and description columns in
corresponding CSV files, located in src/csv, and committing the modified files under a subdirectory named with
the ISO 639-1 two-letter code of the language.
The English version of the CSV files are created/updated from the JSON Schema files by invoking dcm4che's utility json2csv:
$ json2csv src/main/webapp/assets/schema src/csv
src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hl7ExportRule.schema.json=>src/csv/hl7ExportRule.schema.csv
src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hl7OrderScheduledStation.schema.json=>src/csv/hl7OrderScheduledStation.schema.csv
...
src/main/webapp/assets/schema/metrics.schema.json=>src/csv/metrics.schema.csv
Translated versions of the CSV files for one language can be converted back to JSON Schema files by invoking (e.g.)
$ json2csv src/main/webapp/assets/schema src/csv/hi src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hi
src/csv/hi/hl7ExportRule.schema.csv=>src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hi/hl7ExportRule.schema.json
src/csv/hi/hl7OrderScheduledStation.schema.csv=>src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hi/hl7OrderScheduledStation.schema.json
...
src/csv/hi/metrics.schema.csv=>src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hi/metrics.schema.json
If the translated CSV files miss some (new) entries already defined in the English version of the JSON Schema files
in src/main/webapp/assets/schema, the created language specific JSON Schema file are supplemented with the entries
from the English version. Converting the so created JSON Schema files back to the language specific CSV files by
invoking (e.g.)
$ json2csv src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hi src/csv/hi
src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hi/hl7ExportRule.schema.json=>src/csv/hi/hl7ExportRule.schema.csv
src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hi/hl7OrderScheduledStation.schema.json=>src/csv/hi/hl7OrderScheduledStation.schema.csv
:
src/main/webapp/assets/schema/hi/metrics.schema.json=>src/csv/hi/metrics.schema.csv
will add the previous missing entries in the CSV files, where they can be replaced by translated values for title
and description.
