Refresh Translations

To get a fresh copy of the translation files (currently Redwood) and replace them please do the following:

make pull_and_replace

Adding Custom Translations

• Add the translation file manually into this repository e.g. translations-custom/frontend-essentials/src/i18n/messages/ar.json.
• Run make pull_and_replace to add the custom translations into the translations/ directory.
• Create a pull request and merge in the release branch e.g. open-release/redwood.master
• Update the pull_translations program in the Makefile of the repository e.g. Frontend Learning MFE.
• Re-deploy the Micro-frontend or the Microservice to fetch the latest translations.

Directory Structure

• translations-upstream: The upstream unmodified copy will be placed e.g. translations-upstream/edx-platform/conf/locale.
• translations-custom: FutureX-specific translatiosn goes here e.g. translations-custom/frontend-essentials/src/i18n/messages/ar.json.
• translations: This contains a final version of both upstream with overridden entries replaced. This directory is going to be used by Tutor as described in the section below.
