How to add translations for your language

You can use Weblate to translate the app to your language:

https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/fluffychat/

  1. Replace the non-translated string in the codebase:
Text("Hello world"),

with a method call:

Text(L10n.of(context).helloWorld),

And add the method to /lib/l10n/l10n.dart:

String get helloWorld => Intl.message('Hello world');
  1. Add the string to the .arb files with this command:
flutter pub run intl_translation:extract_to_arb --output-dir=lib/l10n lib/l10n/l10n.dart
  1. Copy the new translation objects from /lib/l10n/intl_message.arb to /lib/l10n/intl_<yourlanguage>.arb and translate it or create a new file for your language by copying intl_message.arb.

  2. Update the translations with this command:

flutter pub pub run intl_translation:generate_from_arb --output-dir=lib/l10n --no-use-deferred-loading lib/l10n/l10n.dart lib/l10n/intl_*.arb
  1. Make sure your language is in supportedLocales in /lib/main.dart and in the List at https://gitlab.com/ChristianPauly/fluffychat-flutter/-/blob/main/lib/l10n/l10n.dart#L11.
