To clarify a bit more, there are currently only 2 languages supported in the Galaxy distribution; English and Japanese (note the 'en' and 'ja' subdirectories in the 'locale' directory). Setting your preferred language in your browser to Japanese will only render some Galaxy content in Japanese. The strings that are rendered in the preferred language (other than English) are preceded by an underscore character and are enclosed in parentheses.

For example, in the Edit Attributes page for datasets, the following:

<div class="toolForm"> <div class="toolFormTitle">${_('Edit Attributes')}</div>

will render the section title in Japanese characters if that is your preferred browser language encoding:

Hi HF,

Limited support is available. In order to view Galaxy in other languages, you need to set the language preference in your browser to e.g. Japanese. Chrom, for example, allows you to set up a priority ordered list of prefered languages, so you'll have to set Japanese to the top of the list for it to request that language over English. Please let us know if you encounter difficulties.

Thanks for using Galaxy,

Hi,all

I'm trying to translate galaxy into Chinese recently.

I found there's a directory "locale" under the galaxy directory, it looks like this:

. |-- en | `-- LC_MESSAGES | |-- ginga.mo | |-- ginga.po | |-- tools.mo | `-- tools.po |-- ginga.pot |-- ja | `-- LC_MESSAGES | |-- ginga.mo | |-- ginga.po | |-- tools.mo | `-- tools.po |-- tools.pot

It seems that Galaxy could display in Japanese, then I stopped the running galaxy service on the localhost and tried:

# export LANG=ja_JP.utf-8 # run.sh

But the webpage is still English.

Then I copied the *.mo files to /usr/share/locale/ja_JP/LC_MESSAGES, but it doesn't work either.

Does anyone know whether it's possible to display galaxy in Japanese now?

Thanks!

I don't think our locale support works with Cheetah, but it's been quite some time since I've worked in this area, so I may be wrong. Most of the magic happens in the GalaxyWebTransaction.setup_i18n() method in ~/lib/galaxy/web/framework.__init__.py which is mako centric. It shouldn't be too difficult to add support for Cheetah templates if it's needed.

The developers at the Database Center for the Life Science (DBCLS) in Japan host their own Galaxy instance (http://preview.galaxy.dbcls.jp/), and have done some work in this area, but a brief review of their tools does not show any that display Japanese.

Is it possible for tool wrappers to embed alternative language text?

It works when I set Japanese as the preferred language.

I saw these lines in ginga.po under the folder galaxy-dist/locale/jp/LC_MESSAGES

#: tools/**.xml #: tool_conf.xml

msgid "Get Data" msgstr "データ取得"

msgid "Get ENCODE Data" msgstr "ENCODEデータ取得"

msgid "ENCODE Tools" msgstr "ENCODEツール"

But it seems that it doesn't have any effects (See screenshots).

Is it possible to make the text in xml files display in Japanese?
