Developers

How to update the translations develop branch

# Clone the Olympus frontend repository
git clone https://github.com/OlympusDAO/olympus-frontend.git`
cd olympus-frontend

# Switch to the translations 'translators' branch
yarn lingui:branch:translators

# Install the application dependencies
yarn install 

# At this point your filesystem contains the latest olympus-frontend develop branch with the latest olympus-translations develop branch as a submodule in src/locales/translations
# Extract the new translations
yarn lingui:extract

# Commit the updated translation files
cd src/locales/translations
git add .
git commit
git push origin translations

Clean up po files

From time to time you may want to clean up po files from obsolete translations.

Run: npx lingui extract --clean

You should not do that to often because when translators have to translate a slightly modified version of an item, it helps to rely on the previously translated version.
