Translation

Modoboa needs you to translate the project ! Feel free to join the translation team.

The project is using Transifex. To start with translation, you will need to create an account and join modoboa's team

API

Modoboa API code relies on Django's translation system.

To update translation files after a change to the code, execute the following commands:

$ cd modoboa
$ django-admin makemessages -a

Frontend

When editing the frontend, you may need to update localization files for transifex to pick up your changes.

To do so, after finishing editing, go to the frontend directory and run the following command:

$ yarn gettext:extract
