To add a new translation for OctoPod you should create an issue for the language you want to add. Gaston Dombiak will get in contact with you.

These are the steps to follow:

  1. You will receive a zip file
  2. Unzip the file file and go to the folder [your locale].xcloc/Localized Contents
  3. Open the XLIFF file to add your new translation
    1. XLIFF is an file in XML format
    2. You can use an XLIFF editor to edit the file or you can use any normal text editor
    3. < source> has the text that needs to be translated. < note> provides some extra contextual info.
    4. All you need to do is update <target>...</target> for each entry in the file with the translated text
    5. Do not change anything else
  4. Generate the zip file with your updated XLIFF file
  5. Send it back to Gaston Dombiak so it can be incorporated
