Update language with transifex

Self-Hosted | v5

Hi there!

I’m new to Invoice Ninja and Transifex. I’m trying to update the Japanese text.php file in Transifex, but after I save the translation, I do not see any changes on my v5 dashboard page. How can I update the language with Transifex? What steps should I follow?

By the way, I am working on this file:
https://app.transifex.com/invoice-ninja/invoice-ninja/language/ja/

I see that there are two translation files for Japanese in Transifex. Please let me know if I am using the wrong file.

Thanks,
Trung.

Hi,

Thanks for your help with the translations!

They should appear in the app when the code is updated, usually about once a month.

Thank you for your response,

I am wondering if updating this code is handled by Transifex or if I need to manually update the InvoiceNinja system as per this guide?

Thank you.

It’s handled by the developers.

Currently, I am using the v5-stable branch to deploy the application. Is it necessary to switch to the v5-develop branch to be able to update the latest translation file changes?

It may make the translations available sooner since code changes are checked in there first.

I have switched the repository to the v5-develop branch. I can see that the changes I updated from Transifex have appeared in the texts.php file. I updated the system again by executing these commands:

composer install -o --no-dev
php artisan ninja:post-update

However, when I checked, my dashboard page remained the same without any changes. Am I missing any steps, or do I really have to wait until the v5-stable branch updates before the system can update the language?

As explained above you’ll need to wait for the developers to update the code.

Thank you, I understand now.
