Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

Hi Folks

I played around little bit with eclipse and phing and wrote build.xml file for creating translation packages.
I tried making script as universal as I could with my poor knowlidge

Idea is that You have some dev projec in eclipse to maintain translation files and one for preparing packages.

So phing is copying site and admin files prom dev project to storage project and prepares packages.

On my test server all Joomla packages were working, but I had problem with tinyMCE, I belive there is something wrong with zip compresion, because if I zip files manualy package is working.

I hope it will help somebody Any improvements are welcome.

Thanks Leming

A great contribution to help other TTs using phing for automated builds.
Thumbs up!

Hello!

I have improved it a little bit, see this topic
http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=581934

There is way to make template xml files for all languages so only thing one needs to do is change lang property in build.xml. But it is not implemented yet.

Thanks for your effort, lemings! This is exactly what I have been looking for since ages now. Glad I found this thread.

Best Regards & all the Best,

Thanks Lemings. We are launching a new site for foreign clients and this was quite a handy resource for them.

If somebody is using this script, I can post updates for 1.7.2.

yes, please!
would greatly appreciate if you could still handle that

This is why I love this forum so much - I've been lurking here for quite some time and decided to finally register. I would be more than grateful if you could post updated version!

Thanks in advance,

Here you are!

All one needs to do is adjust properties in J_build.xml and copy template files to your language directories.

Latest version of my build script

Now no need to copy anywhere, template files must be in same folder as build script.

Thanks very much for that lemings, I'll have a proper look at this when I wake up in the morning - looks like exactly what I need.

Hey Lemings. Your zip file phing-translation-build-script.zip is very neatly put together, thank you for spending the time to do that.

So am right in thinking I can use this to build a translation pack for French/3.0? Or would it be better for me to contact the translation team and see if I can help there?

No need to do that, take package from here http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/jtrans ... ge_id=6415

We are now working on an improved version of com_localise which will let make core (or extensions) lang packages as simple as clicking on a Download button, all formatted as should

hi infograf768
when it will be ready for download?

You can test com_localise last beta version here by downloading it from here Joomla 3.3.x and over only)
https://github.com/joomla-projects/com_ ... e/releases

version 4.0.4 dev will let you create a full registered core package ready to go.

I fail to figure out how to do merge all the files to a single variable so that I can then use replacetokens for example?

Any ideas about this? Should I build my own phing class that does this? Or is there an easy way to achieve this with what phing has to offer out of the box?

@rutin
You can see how it works on the base of this joomla plugin: The build.xml file is here: and the task is here:
