12:34:48 <mether> #meetingname How to do I18N through gettext
12:34:49 <zodbot> The meeting name has been set to 'how_to_do_i18n_through_gettext'
12:35:03 <nkumar> Hello everyone.  I am Naveen Kumar,  a Fedora contributor and will be leading the "How to do I18N through gettext" workshop today
12:35:14 <nkumar> #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/A_Short_Tutorial_On_i18n_Through_gettext
12:35:21 <nkumar> We will be internationalizaing a classic Hello World program in C
12:35:35 <nkumar> First step, run emacs
12:36:11 <praveenkumar> nkumar: done
12:36:19 <nkumar> type ALT+x
12:36:26 <nkumar> type ansi-term in the lower window
12:36:31 <nkumar> press return twice
12:37:01 <praveenkumar> nkumar: got terminal window in emacs
12:37:16 <kishan> yep! same ^
12:37:26 <pavi> nkumar: got the ansi terminal up could type indic as well
12:37:32 <nkumar> in super user mode (root user) type yum install @development-tools
12:37:39 <nkumar> #commandline yum install @development-tools
12:37:49 <nkumar> yum install @<langname>-support
12:37:56 <nkumar> For Hindi I would do something like:
12:38:04 <nkumar> #commandline yum install @hindi-support
12:38:17 <nkumar> then
12:38:18 <nkumar> #commandline yum install ibus ibus-table*
12:38:45 <mether> #chair nkumar
12:38:46 <zodbot> Current chairs: mether nkumar
12:39:10 <nkumar> Tell me when you have installed them:
12:39:24 <praveenkumar> nkumar: the development tool size is very large almost 41MB
12:39:56 <pavi> nkumar: by development tools are you asking for a specific one ?
12:40:01 <nkumar> ok for the time you can ignore them, we will install as required...
12:40:15 <nkumar> i wanted to ensure gettext is there...
12:40:20 <nkumar> yum install gettext
12:40:22 <pavi> Yes its taking some time .
12:40:43 <nkumar> & yum install gcc
12:41:04 <mether> gettext is likely installed already.  just make sure you have gcc installed and we can install anything else as we go along
12:41:18 <nkumar> yep, just install gcc
12:41:23 <praveenkumar> nkumar: gcc and gettext installed.
12:41:39 <nkumar> ok then we will move ahead
12:41:44 <nkumar> create a directory with name gettextsession
12:41:51 <nkumar> #commandline mkdir gettextsession
12:42:00 <nkumar> #commandline cd gettextsession
12:42:30 <nkumar> If you know, write a hello world program in C, otherwise download http://nkumar.fedorapeople.org/helloi18n/helloworld/helloworldnaive.c
12:42:36 <nkumar> #commandline wget http://nkumar.fedorapeople.org/helloi18n/helloworld/helloworldnaive.c -O helloworld.c
12:43:13 <nkumar> tell me when you are done...
12:43:23 <mether> if you do know to write one,  just download it
12:43:37 <kishan> done
12:43:42 <praveenkumar> done
12:43:51 <nkumar> run helloworld.c in an editor (vi, gedit etc)
12:44:00 <nkumar> In this file include the following:#include<libintl.h> & #include<locale.h> in the beginning
12:44:07 <nkumar> #addinfile #include<libintl.h>
12:44:14 <nkumar> #addinfile #include<locale.h>
12:44:25 <nkumar> #addinfile #define _(String) gettext(String)
12:45:08 <nkumar> done?
12:45:26 <mether> yep
12:45:44 <kishan> yes
12:45:45 <nkumar> in the main() function add the following in the beginning
12:45:51 <nkumar> #addinfile setlocale(LC_ALL,"");
12:45:57 <nkumar> #addinfile bindtextdomain("helloworld","/usr/share/locale");
12:46:05 <nkumar> #addinfile textdomain("helloworld");
12:46:21 <FranciscoD> nkumar: this is right on top of the main fnction?
12:46:28 <mether> FranciscoD, yes
12:46:32 <mether> err
12:46:45 <nkumar> begining of the main function
12:46:48 <mether> FranciscoD, inside it.
12:46:59 <nkumar> main(){ setlocale(LC_ALL,"");...
12:47:12 <nkumar> mether:thanks :)
12:47:20 <FranciscoD> done
12:47:40 <nkumar> Now change printf("Hello World\n"); with printf(_("Hello World\n"));
12:47:45 <mether> nkumar, can you explain what these functions do,  one by one?
12:47:47 <nkumar> #replaceinfile printf("Hello World\n");    printf(_("Hello World\n"));
12:48:49 <nkumar> bindtextdomain("helloworld","/usr/share/locale"); binds helloworld  domain to Mesage catalog locale  repo /usr/share/locale
12:49:36 <nkumar> Message Catalog, is a database of local language strings in some file
12:49:48 <mether> for those joining in late, feel free to refer to http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-classroom/2010-04-30/how_to_do_i18n_through_gettext.2010-04-30-12.34.log.txt
12:49:58 <nkumar> textdomain("helloworld"); sets current domain to be helloworld
12:50:07 <pavi> nkumar: is message catalog like Mo file ?
12:50:13 <FranciscoD> nkumar: please define "domain"
12:50:17 <nkumar> yep
12:50:50 <nkumar> generally an application will have one domain of all translated strings
12:51:03 <nkumar> it is a meta name for applications string
12:51:08 <nkumar> for example
12:51:26 <nkumar> all the strings in gedit is in domain "gedit"
12:51:30 <nkumar> in file gedit.mo
12:51:54 <nkumar> But an application can chose to have more than one domain for an app.
12:52:05 <pavi> so in this case its helloworld
12:52:12 <nkumar> yes
12:52:29 <nkumar> If I call textdomain("helloworld");
12:52:37 <nkumar> it sets current domain to helloworld
12:53:09 <nkumar> I can set it to something else with the effect, then the translated messages will appear from that domain
12:53:11 <pavi> nkumar: why should it be binded to /usr/share/locale ? has it got anything to do with where gettext looks?
12:53:18 <praveenkumar> nkumar: so its mean when we compile that program than we have a helloworld.mo file at given location?
12:53:35 <nkumar> it is a standard location for storing message catalogs in linux
12:53:47 <nkumar> But you can also change it to something else
12:53:58 <nkumar> yep
12:54:22 <j4v4m4n> praveenkumar: .mo file can be copied to /usr/share/locale at any time
12:54:26 <mether> why would a app have more than one domain?
12:55:06 <nkumar> Generally it is not the case, but If suppose an application used some parts from another app
12:55:20 <j4v4m4n> mether: gtk may have its own domain and gedit may have its own domain, I think
12:55:20 <nkumar> then it does not make sense to translate it again
12:55:29 <mether> ah ok
12:55:37 <praveenkumar> j4v4m4n: ok
12:55:43 <pavi> now understood :)
12:55:47 <ardchoille> Makes sense
12:56:08 <nkumar> j4v4m4n: yes, than can be the case, thanks :)
12:56:31 <nkumar> should we move ahead:
12:57:36 <mether> yes
12:57:46 <praveenkumar> yep
12:57:48 <pavi> should we compile the program?
12:57:58 <nkumar> Not now...
12:58:00 <nkumar> Now change printf("Hello World\n"); with printf(_("Hello World\n"));
12:58:04 <FranciscoD> pavi: patience ;)
12:58:09 <nkumar> #replaceinfile printf("Hello World\n");    printf(_("Hello World\n"));
12:58:16 <nkumar> Your C program is now internationalized...
12:58:38 <FranciscoD> nkumar: so when im coding, its my responsibility to do all this?
12:58:55 <nkumar> yep, programmer's
12:59:03 <FranciscoD> or do i code normally and someone else internationalizes it?
12:59:39 <nkumar> Normally you should, if you do not do it, we will have more jobs for i18n engineers :-P
12:59:44 * FranciscoD notes to use i18n henceforth
12:59:46 <FranciscoD> ;)
12:59:49 <praveenkumar> nkumar: what is use of libintl.h  library ?
13:00:02 <FranciscoD> definitions for whatever new stuff youve added
13:00:09 <nkumar> yep
13:00:12 <praveenkumar> ok
13:00:16 <FranciscoD> praveenkumar: its another header file
13:00:24 <praveenkumar> got it
13:00:37 <nkumar> Now remember it is the responsibility of gettext functions to extract local strings at runtime
13:01:13 <nkumar> printf(_("Hello World\n")); here printf expects an 8bit string and nothing else
13:01:54 <nkumar> this is what _("Hello World\n") provides but in a local script extracted from appropriate domain and language selection
13:02:37 <nkumar> Tell me when to move ahead?
13:02:43 <FranciscoD> please contiue
13:02:49 <FranciscoD> s/contiue/continue
13:02:56 <nkumar> #commandline mkdir po/
13:03:06 <nkumar> #commandline xgettext -d helloworld -o po/helloworld.pot -k_ -s helloworld.c
13:03:11 <nkumar> #commandline cd po
13:03:31 <nkumar> #commandline ls
13:03:53 <nkumar> you should now see helloworld.pot
13:04:02 <nkumar> in this directory "po"
13:04:53 <nkumar> continue?
13:05:02 <pavi> yes it has a msgid with string :)
13:05:13 <nkumar> yep
13:05:26 <nkumar> #commandline mkdir hi
13:05:31 <nkumar> #commandline cp helloworld.pot hi/helloworld.po
13:05:37 <nkumar> #commandline cd hi
13:05:50 <nkumar> run helloworld.po in an editor (vi, gedit etc)
13:07:11 <morpheuss> ok
13:07:12 <nkumar> continue?
13:07:17 <morpheuss> yep please

14:07:14 <nkumar> guys who all are not getting local script....
14:07:24 <j4v4m4n> pranay_09: did you get it?
14:07:48 <pranay_09> j4v4m4n: ya just 1 min
14:09:14 <nkumar> Ok those who got it, do you have questions?
14:09:34 <pavi> j4v4m4n: In the malayalam packages why are there many fonts under smc ?
14:10:30 <j4v4m4n> pavi: because we have many free fonts :)
14:10:35 <praveenkumar> nkumar: what is difference in .pot or .po?
14:11:04 <nkumar> pot stands for portable object template file
14:11:16 <pavi> nkumar: why should LANG be hi_IN.UTF-8 ?  Is it compulsory  to specify encoding ?
14:11:22 <nkumar> it is a template file which is copied to all the languages and then translated....
14:11:47 <j4v4m4n> pavi: it is optional for languages that uses only one encoding
14:12:13 <nkumar> yep thanks j4v4m4n
14:12:20 <pavi> j4v4m4n: illustrate with example
14:13:05 <nkumar> I am manufacturing example export LANG=hi_IN.UTF-8 or export LANG=hi_IN.ISCII
14:13:40 <j4v4m4n> pavi: en_US has many different encodings
14:14:02 <pavi> j4v4m4n: like ASCII or western european ?
14:14:11 <j4v4m4n> en_US.ISO-8859-15 and en_US.UTF-8
14:14:15 <nkumar> or iso-8859-1
14:14:34 <pavi> ahh ok
14:15:03 <nkumar> POT files are used to copy only
14:15:15 <nkumar> one untouced file

14:31:18 <pavi> nkumar: how many encodings are there for indic languages?
14:31:35 <nkumar> pranay_09: That line should be "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
14:32:48 <nkumar> pavi: I only know of ISCII and UTF-8, UTF-16 (-le,-be) & UTF-32 (,-le,-be)
14:33:37 <j4v4m4n> kishan: sometimes a locale change needs a reboot, can you reboot and select Hindi at login screen?
