[WIP] Icelandic translations.

[koddsson]

Putting this here as a work in progress to have a better overview of translation progress.

Things that need translating:

• i18n/
  • is.json
  • troubleshooting_is.md

Translations that need to be verified:

• problems/:
  • accessing-array-values/
  • array-filtering/
  • arrays/
  • for-loop/
  • function-arguments/
  • function-return-values/
  • functions/
  • if-statement/
  • introduction/
  • looping-through-arrays/
  • number-to-string/
  • numbers/
  • object-keys/
  • object-properties/
  • objects/
  • revising-strings/
  • rounding-numbers/
  • scope/
  • string-length/
  • strings/
  • this/
  • variables/

I wrote a little snippet to translate the problems and solutions using the Google Translate API. The plan is to use those as a base and do little changes to them and push.

Here's the snippet.

const fs = require('fs');

const apiKey = 's3cr3tk3y';
const googleTranslate = require('google-translate')(apiKey);

fs.readdir('./problems', (err, files) => {
  if (err) throw err;

  const problems = files.reduce((sum, file) => {
    sum[file] = fs.readFileSync(`problems/${file}/problem.md`);
    return sum;
  }, {});
  const solutions = files.reduce((sum, file) => {
    sum[file] = fs.readFileSync(`problems/${file}/solution.md`);
    return sum;
  }, {});

  Object.keys(problems).forEach((problem) => {
    const problemText = problems[problem].toString('utf8');
    googleTranslate.translate(problemText, 'is', (err, translation) => {
      fs.writeFileSync(`problems/${problem}/problem_is.md`, translation.translatedText);
    });
  });

  Object.keys(solutions).forEach((solution) => {
    const solutionText = solutions[solution].toString('utf8');
    googleTranslate.translate(solutionText, 'is', (err, translation) => {
      fs.writeFileSync(`problems/${solution}/solution_is.md`, translation.translatedText);
    });
  });
});

Ok I pushed all the machine translated files so the above TODO list will serve as a list of stuff that we need to go over and make fixes to the translations.

[koddsson]

Síað!

😆

[gudmundurmar]

Ok, guess I'll start at the bottom then...
Taking variables/

[gudmundurmar]

I can't push changes because I don't have the right access and I can't really PR a PR... What to do?

[benediktvaldez]

@gudmundurmar I've sent you an invite to become a collaborator on this fork!

[gudmundurmar]

Accepted and pushed. variables/ ✅
Next up this/

EDIT: this/ is empty... So I guess I'll take strings/ instead

[koddsson]

and I can't really PR a PR

I think you can actually. I do it all the time 😁

[benediktvaldez]

and I can't really PR a PR

I think you can actually. I do it all the time 😁

Technically you can, a PR is between branches (in this case translation-icelandic to master), so in theory you could fork this fork (yo dawg) and make a PR to the translation-icelandic branch which would then appear in this PR.

Not to worry though, you're a contributor now so 😁

Working on array-filtering.

[gudmundurmar]

It looks like the words surrounded by didn't come through in my commits for some reason...

Do you guys mind if I alter the names of the commits using rebase?

You just have to use git pull --rebase next time you pull instead of a regular pull (if you aren't doing that already).

[koddsson]

I don't really mind but maybe we should save that till last in order to minimize the risk of rebasing something out of the history?

[gudmundurmar]

Good point @koddsson. Will do that last then :)
Btw are you escaping ` in the terminal or using the github client for your commits?
