 localizing-shell-scripts-without bashisms, gettext or ...
Subject description: for example: askpass 5 messages and NEW: alsawizard |
|
Inspired by technosaurus' work on this, see
http://bashismal.blogspot.com/2011/10/localizing-shell-scripts-without.html
I have been working on an example just a little bit larger then “hello world”.
It is the script /usr/sbin/askpass which is needed in installations for non-privileged user fido.
There are just 5 message strings that can be translated.
The first one is:
This application wants to run:
This is replaced by:
${_M_1:-This application wants to run:}
I have chosen to mark the variables by names starting _M_ and number. _M_ is a unique identifier used for creation of some files.
Here is the script using this method for internationalization
| Quote: |
#!/bin/sh
#Barry Kauler 2011, GPL3 (/usr/share/doc/legal)
#specified in /etc/sudoers or /etc/sudo.conf, gui-helper for sudo. (path compiled-in to my sudo PET)

fi
#echo "$RETVAL"
echo "$ADMINPASSWORD" #return password to sudo.
###END### |
Localization using attached script t12s (translate one to several)
Just start it!
At first dialog choose askpass (the one and only script that can be used for now)
No English language file needed
Start your own translation
and report bugs and success please
Enjoy

Awesome!  Do I have to run as fido instead of root to use this?
Also, the screenshot seems to be from Wary 5.2, how about other puppies?

ferro10n,
thanks for reporting
Answering your questions:
1: which puppy
This was made in wary 5.2.190 and should work in all puppies that have yad installed. Test this by entering yad in a console. If 'command not found then' then install yad from repo puppy-common.
2: which user
- To reproduce the screenshot you must run as root.
- To install askpass copy above script into /usr/sbin/askpass (you might copy the original askpass to askpass.orig before)
- To make a translation just start the script t12s. You will be asked for administrator's password if you are not root, and you will requested to enable utf8 if it is disabled.
To test the script completely you must do this as fido or spot.
I have run it in a real console (CTRL-ALT-F2, switch back to X by CTRL-ALT-F4):
login as root, then
su fido
pmount
This will ask for administrator's password using your translation.
Note,
Doing this I have found a small bug in permission of /dev/console.
/dev/console is writable by root only. That is wrong!
Fix it now by:
| Code: | chgrp users /dev/console
chmod g+w /dev/console
|
Looking forward to your translations

Is it easier?
Subject description: i think gettext is more simple and easy. |
|
As a conclusion, i do not think it is easier than using gettext.
gettext '.po' file can be edited by text editors. The original message is associated on the 'po' file.
But using the smert tools like poedit is more easier.
The way you discuss is the way MU did and now zigbert do.
There are some traps:
1. locale file path
MU placed the translation files at '/usr/share/locale/LANGAGE_CODE/LC_MESSAGES/APPNAME.mo'.
The place and the extention makes problem because they are not actually '.mo' files.
Zigbert places the translation files at /usr/local/APPNAME/locals with the file name as 'LANGUAGE_CODE:LANGUAGE_NAME'.
Therefore the translation files are here and there, so it takes a bit work to make a collection of NLS.
To place the translation files '/usr/share/locale/LANGAGE_CODE/APPNAME' is nice.
2. incomplete translations
The translation s are not always fully done.
When the programer add new messages, the old translations are lacking the messages.
If some messages are lacking, the program may fail.
Technosaulus proposes 'echo ${VAR:-default message}'. It is a solution but seems complax for me.
Another way is to make a default message file. But the program fails without the default message file.
I prefer to place the default messages at the top of the program. Like;
| Code: | VAR="default message"
echo ${VAR} |
3. searching path of the translation file from the language code
it can be 'pl' and/or 'pl_BR'.
Here is a code using a default message file, '/usr/share/locale/C/APPNAME':
| Code: | LOCALEDIR=/usr/share/locale
LOCALEFILE=$(basename $0)
for D in C ${LANG%_*} ${LANG%.*}; do
F="$LOCALEDIR/$D/$LOCALEFILE"
[ -f "$F" ] && . "$F"
done |
4. finding original messages
If the messages are in lines of the program code, it is a hard work to find the original messages to make the translations.
It is a hard work for the programmer if he offers a default messages as a file.
It is a hard work to replace the messages with making the variable names.
The xgettext automatically makes '.po' file with the message id's.

shinobar,
thanks for your input.
First:
- I like translations
- I like different methods
- I like to use the best available
- I like gettext. It is not out!
| shinobar wrote: | | As a conclusion, i do not think it is easier than using gettext. |
The goal is: faster than gettext
First time I was fascinated by speed see
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=70804 please
| shinobar wrote: | | gettext '.po' file can be edited by text editors. The original message is associated on the 'po' file. |
The file '/usr/share/locale/LANGAGE_CODE/APPNAME' can be edited by text editors though without original message. My little GUI ‘t12s’ shows original message at translating. These are taken from a temporary file. No need to save it anywhere!
| shinobar wrote: | | But using the smert tools like poedit is more easier. |
Maybe. Let us wait if and how ferro10n will succeed translating to es and pt_BR.
| shinobar wrote: | | The way you discuss is the way MU did and now zigbert do. |
Sorry, I do not understand this. But I will try to recomment further.

That is the very sad truth. [joke]better call them MU[/joke]

You know it is more than a bit.
| shinobar wrote: | | To place the translation files '/usr/share/locale/LANGAGE_CODE/>APPNAME' is nice. |
To place the translation files '/usr/share/locale/LANGAGE_CODE/APPNAME'
was technosaurus’ idea.
| shinobar wrote: | 2. incomplete translations

New messages always have to be translated new. Where is the problem? Just work to translate and update.
| shinobar wrote: | | If some messages are lacking, the program may fail. |
No. The original English message is shown.
| shinobar wrote: | | Technosaulus proposes 'echo ${VAR:-default message}'. It is a solution but seems complax for me. |
Seemed the same to me at the beginning. But using it now it is more than just OK. We all need time to learn new things.
| shinobar wrote: | | Another way is to make a default message file. But the program fails without the default message file. |
That is why a default message file is NOT needed, so no fail.
| shinobar wrote: | I prefer to place the default messages at the top of the program. Like;
| Code: |
VAR="default message"
echo ${VAR} |
|
And I prefer to have the message there where it is used.
Simplest example:
echo “$(gettext ’hello worls‘)”
or
echo “${_M_x:-hello world}”
better than
echo “$LOC_x”

Did it not work for you?
| shinobar wrote: | 4. finding original messages

grep _M_ APPNAME
or producing VAR=”...“
grep _M_ APPNAME | cut -d "{" -f 2- | rev | cut -d "}" -f 2- | rev \
| sed -r 's/:-/="/g' | sed -r 's/$/"/g' > anywhere/t12s_${APPNAME}_en
That was not yet published (my work in progress) and will hopefully enable use of variables in a message using t12s.
See http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=73041 please.
| shinobar wrote: | It is a hard work for the programmer if he offers a default messages as a file.

Yes. Until now I did not think to change any existing internationalized script to this method. Just made one, /usr/sbin/askpass, new, that was easy. If this new method will be accepted I could think about making a script for conversion.
| shinobar wrote: | | The xgettext automatically makes '.po' file with the message id's. |
I also can easily create automatically .po file if that makes sense.

How the
| Code: | | echo “${_M_x:-hello world}” |
can be faster or easier than
| Code: | | echo “$(gettext ’hello worls‘)” |
Gettext method is already established and there are many smart tools.
How can it be faster without gettext?
Consider making rules(for example the variable, _M_x, naming or numbering rule), making tools and learning how to.

Technosauraus has explained how.
I can only show that it is faster.
| Code: | # time echo "$(gettext 'hello world')"
hello world
real 0m0.014s
user 0m0.016s
sys 0m0.000s
# time echo “${_M_x:-hello world}”
“hello world”
real 0m0.000s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.000s
# |
Surely it is not easier maybe because it is only some days old and gettext is about 10 years old.

Unfortunately I'm temporarily unable to full test these method. My computer seems to hate Wary 5.2! Especially trying to log in as fido 
I was able to translate the askpass script, but when I run it I got a white window with a box and a button. I'm still willing to test, for it worked running Wary without save-file. Maybe there's something I didn't do properly.
From a beginner point of view, however, I have to agree with shinobar-san, this method is suitable for a bit more experienced people, and of course for those who aren't having a nightmare with a particular puppy version

Thank you for reporting and for your good will to continue
I agree, askpass might be too complicated for a beginner.
Therefore I suggest:
- Take any recent puppy, install yad if it is not contained.
- copy above t12s (renamed from t12s.gz)
- copy above alsawizard (renamed from alsawizard.gz)
- Start t12s:
-- choose /usr/sbin/alsawizard in first dialog
-- enter es as language in second dialog
-- translate just 1 item and click execute button: you should see this item translated.
...and so on
-- enter pt_BR as language in second dialog
...and so on
Please report:
- which puppy version (if there is a problem I will install it for me to reproduce your problem)
- maybe a screenshot of translated alsawizard?
- send your translation (open /usr/local/share/es/alsawizard in geany then copy and paste into forum post)
- any problems you might have
Thanks in advance

using L18L's naming method, you can quickly autogenerate a template:
| Code: | #!/bin/bash
for x in $@ ; do
while read -d$ A || [ "$A" ]; do
case "$A" in
*{_M_*)B=_M${A##*_M};B=${B%%\}*}\";echo ${B//:-/=\"};;
esac
done < $x >$x.i18n
done |
usage:
mki18n list of scripts
hmm, even though I used a bashism (read -d) it generates the entire template in less time than gettext takes to do a single translation
... it may be beneficial to change >$x.i18n to |sort -u >$x.i18n if you are planning to use a VAR multiple times

I was able to translate the askpass script, but when I run it I got a white window with a box and a button. I'm still willing to test, for it worked running Wary without save-file. Maybe there's something I didn't do properly.

Thank you for reporting and for your good will to continue
I agree, askpass might be too complicated for a beginner.
Therefore I suggest:
- Take any recent puppy, install yad if it is not contained.
- copy above t12s (renamed from t12s.gz)
- copy above alsawizard (renamed from alsawizard.gz)
- Start t12s:
-- choose /usr/sbin/alsawizard in first dialog
-- enter es as language in second dialog
-- translate just 1 item and click execute button: you should see this item translated.
...and so on
-- enter pt_BR as language in second dialog
...and so on
Please report:
- which puppy version (if there is a problem I will install it for me to reproduce your problem)
- maybe a screenshot of translated alsawizard?
- send your translation (open /usr/local/share/es/alsawizard in geany then copy and paste into forum post)
- any problems you might have |
Success this time around! Didn't have to change puppy version, it's Wary 5.2 running entirely from RAM. And I learned some German on the way Now testing pt-BR
