Description

I have configured my nethserver wih italian language but notifications like "password expire" are in english

[root@nethserver1 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/i18n
LANG="it_IT.UTF-8"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"

These type of notifications are for end-user so I find it useful to be translated

History

#1 Updated by Alessio Fattorini almost 7 years ago

  • Subject changed from Ability to configure/change the default system language for notification to Support non-english language for "password expire" notification
  • Description updated (diff)

#2 Updated by Davide Principi over 6 years ago

  • Target version set to ~FUTURE

#3 Updated by Filippo Carletti over 6 years ago

  • Target version changed from ~FUTURE to v6.6

#5 Updated by Davide Principi over 6 years ago

#6 Updated by Davide Principi over 6 years ago

As #3115 is rolling out, this issue should become an ordinary translation workflow (which has not been defined clearly yet).

I think non-English support does not deserve a dedicated issue in general: it's a cyclic ativity, we should work to define. A raw list of tasks could be

  • push of source language catalogs to Transifex (when the source package is VERIFIED)
  • translators translate
  • pull of translated strings
  • new release of language packs

Close this REJECTED?

Edit:
the nethserver-directory package must be modified to localize mail notifications

#7 Updated by Davide Principi over 6 years ago

  • Subject changed from Support non-english language for "password expire" notification to Localize "password expire" notifications
  • Category set to nethserver-password
  • Status changed from NEW to TRIAGED
  • % Done changed from 0 to 20

We could add a selector to nethserver-password to choose the notification language.

Also the notification template should support the gettext catalogs.

I'd move all the password-related code to nethserver-password, if possible.

  • Status changed from TRIAGED to ON_DEV
  • Assignee set to Davide Principi
  • % Done changed from 20 to 30

#9 Updated by Davide Principi about 6 years ago

  • Category changed from nethserver-password to nethserver-directory
  • Status changed from ON_DEV to MODIFIED
  • Assignee deleted (Davide Principi)
  • % Done changed from 30 to 60
  • NEEDINFO changed from No to Yes

MODIFIED

  • Added sysconfig/DefaultLanguage prop in nethserver-base
  • Use gettext() for password-expire template localization

If the sysconfig/DefaultLanguage prop is more abstract than "Password policy" where do we want show it?

Test case

  • Update nethserver-base and nethserver-directory to modified versions
  • Create first.user account and configure mail for it.
  • Save the attached nethserver-directory.mo catalog into /usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES
  • Set prop
    config setprop sysconfig DefaultLanguage it_IT.utf8
  • Check the mail is localised and delivered to first.user:
    /etc/e-smith/events/actions/nethserver-directory-mail-password-expired ev first.user $(( `date +%s` + 180000))
