Help with translation
Batocera comes in a variety of local languages, and relies on the community to help with the translation.
How can you help?
- See what is the current status of your language. You can check on this page to see what's the % of strings that are currently translated for each supported language.
- Download the current translation file from this directory. It's an
emulationstation.po
text file with all the strings to be translated. - Compile your
emulationstation2.po
file intoemulationstation2.mo
. You can use the Poedit program on your desktop, or online with the Poeditor tool. - Connect to your batocera through SSH
- Copy your
emulationstation2.mo
file to/usr/share/locale/your_language_code/LC_MESSAGES/
– for instance/usr/share/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/emulationstation2.mo
for Brazilian Portuguese. - Open command console (Terminal) and execute the command
batocera-save-overlay
to keep your changes upon reboot - Restart your Batocera
- Once you're happy with your translation, you can submit a PR via Github, or send your .po file back to the dev team on the #translations channel of our Discord server.
Thank you for your help!
