## Messages
|
|
|
|
This directory contains "messages" files, which are JSON-format files
|
|
containing human-translated strings that are needed by Blockly.
|
|
|
|
### Translating
|
|
|
|
**We do not accept pull requests for files in this directory**.
|
|
Instead, we use [Translatewiki](https://translatewiki.net/) to manage
|
|
translations for Blockly. Please refer to [the detailed instructions
|
|
on how to help us translate Blockly](
|
|
https://developers.google.com/blockly/guides/contribute/core/translating)
|
|
on the Blockly Developers site.
|
|
|
|
There is one notable exception: because the language is not supported
|
|
by Translatewiki, contributors to the [Klingon translation](
|
|
https://developers.google.com/blockly/guides/contribute/core/klingon)
|
|
may submit PRs making changes to [`tlh.json`](tlh.json) directly.
|
|
|
|
### Building
|
|
|
|
Blockly cannot use the files in this directory directly. Instead,
|
|
they must first be converted into executable `.js` files we call
|
|
"langfiles". This is done automatically as needed by the build
|
|
system, but you can also run this build step manually by invoking `npm
|
|
run langfiles`; the output will be found in `build/msg/`.
|
|
|
|
