Forums / Discussions / Soon to be release autostatus extension needs translators

Introduction

I'm about to release a new version of the autostatus extension for eZ Publish. This extension allows to automatically update one or several Twitter and/or Identi.ca statuses when something is published in an eZ Publish site. I'd like to make it available in different languages. So basically, this post is a call for volunteer translators (like the one I did on Twitter some hours ago).

Hi Damien,

I can see the mention of "events" several places. What are events in the context of this extension?

Sincerely,

An event (in the autostatus/log context) is an "update status action". The autostatus extension has a view that lets you see which update status has been done (or not) by the extension.

Cheers

Yes, I plan to implement it ;-). The main challenge here is to authenticate with OAuth 2.0 now (Twitter is using OAuth 1.0)

And if I have enough motivation (and time !), I'll try to also implement Google+ support :)

And if the API exists ;-)

There's a TODO file in the extension where planned features are listed. On social network support, I also plan to implement a Linkedin connector.

url shortener: What about taking http://goo.gl ?

A SEO bird told me that if you are using goo.gl the page is faster in the google index...

Best wishes,
Georg.

Yeah goo.gl possibility. But I don't know yet how it will be implemented, I think we should probably support several URL shorteners even if goo.gl is very easy to use.

lol, SEO should be renamed in FUD (Fear Uncertainly and Doubt) but anyway, that's another topic ;-)

Hi Damien,

Is it a large .ts file? If it is not too much work, I could check for the Dutch translation.

Hi Robin,

"

"

The translation.ts file is not so large, it contains only 66 quite short and simple strings, the longest sentence to translate is "Please click on the following button to go on %network and authorize autostatus to update your status on your behalf.". It shouldn't take more then 30 minutes too translate.

Hi Damien,

sounds like I can chip in for the Dutch translation, 30 minutes is something I can fit in. Do you have a deadline for the release?

Obviously I did not make your deadline. I'll see if I can find some time in the near future to translate it. If I do, can I send it to your e-mail?

Hi Robin,

you can still contribute and send it by email, no problem :-)

I don't know when I'll release the next version (I've added the support for URL shortening systems and fixed some bugs since the last release) but if you have a limited spare time, I would recommend to not work on translation file now since we'll probably have to add/change some strings wth the support of Linkedin and Facebook.

Cheers
