# Internationalization Workflow (Draft)
|
|
|
|
## Steps
|
|
|
|
- Developers update strings in `msg_hash_us.h`.
|
|
- Developers (can set a cron job) run `./h2json.py msg_hash_us.h` to generate `msg_hash_us.json`. It is just a convenient format that is supported by Weblate/Crowdin/Transifex and doesn't need to be inversion control.
|
|
- Developers (can set a cron job) upload `msg_hash_us.json` to Weblate/Crowdin/Transifex.
|
|
- Translators translate strings on Weblate/Crowdin/Transifex.
|
|
- Developers (can set a cron job) download `msg_hash_xx.json` files.
|
|
- Developers (can set a cron job) run `./json2h.py msg_hash_xx.json` to generate `msg_hash_xx.h`.
|
|
|
|
## Pros
|
|
|
|
- No new dependencies.
|
|
- No performance impact.
|
|
- Don't require translators to know how to use Git, how to read C code and how to create Pull Request.
|
|
- Translators will be informed whenever a source string changes.

## Cron job setup
|
|
|
|
1. [Install crowdin cli tool](https://support.crowdin.com/cli-tool/)
|
|
2. Get the `intl/crowdin.yaml` file from someone who have crowdin admin accounts
|
|
3. Add cron job `cd path/to/retroarch/intl && ./crowin_sync.sh`
