ecv-translation

Translation of endcoronavirus.org website

How to translate

• Go to Weblate project
• Register there and start translating
• Make sure not to add / remove any whitespaces around translated strings
• Weblate administrators: commit changes to GitHub using Manage -> Commit
• Merge pull request created by Weblate to main branch
• Translations on endcoronavirus.org will be automatically updated

How to add new language

• Create a new country code directory with a dict.json file containig translation from English to chosen language

How it works

• Repository has GitHub pages enabled
• There is a custom script injected in the squarespace settings (header section), which is using squarelate to translate website:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/@kbobrowski/squarelate@v1.1.2/dist/squarelate.min.js"></script>
<script>
var squarelate = Squarelate.defaultBuilder("https://necsi.github.io/ecv-translation", 'en');
squarelate.init();
</script>

• Languages are added in squarespace Pages, as links which point to e.g. ?lang=pl, where pl is a country code. Note that after saving link settings and opening link settings again there will be nothing in the link field, but this seems like a squarespace bug.
