translations plugin for Tutor

This plugin allows adding or overriding translations strings easily from the config.yml.

Installation

pip install tutor-contrib-translations

Usage

First, enable the plugin with

tutor plugins enable translations

Translations are handled in a different way in the legacy Django HTML pages and and in the MFEs.

Translating DJANGO legacy pages

Add a TRANSLATIONS_OPENEDX entry to the configuration file. Then add a key for each language in lower case. Finally add as many items as needed using the original string in english as key and the translated text as value.

E.g.:

TRANSLATIONS_OPENEDX:
    es:
        "Courses": "Cursos"
        "Certificate": "Certificado"

Translating MFE

Similarly, create an entry named TRANSLATIONS_MFE_<mfe name>. Then add a key for each language in lower case. Finally add as many items as needed using the original string in english as key and the translated text as value.

E.g.:

TRANSLATIONS_MFE_LEARNING:
    es:
        "Courses": "Cursos"
        "Certificate": "Certificado"

Save the configuration to apply the translations. Finally, rebuild the openedx and or mfe images where the translations have changed.
