Blockly localization (i18n)

[Hilty]

Hi Guys,

How I can localize the Blockly texts?

I try to find it in documentation but I don't find it. 

Please could someone help me?

Thanks for all,

Cheers,

Hey Hilty,

Internationalization of blocks can be done easily by specifying the appropriate message file for your language. Somewhere in your code (likely in index.html,) there should be a messages file:

<script src="msg/js/en.js"></script>

In this example, it's english (en.js). Simply replace that with the desired language,  like this:

<script src="msg/js/fr.js"></script>

That would change the block language to French. The message files we provide are found here: https://github.com/google/blockly/tree/master/msg/js

Hi Cory, 

Thanks for your reply. :-)

But what if I need to change the texts inside a custom block? 

Maybe turn a "Create a Bird" (english) text inside a custom block for "Crie um passaro" (portuguese), for example.

Thanks for all,

Cheers,

 f you want to use custom text, you'll need to include those properties and their appropriate translations. You can find an example of this in the Blockly Games repository, which defines the messages in their own files, then combines them with the appropriate core Blockly files, in the build script.

If you add strings to the <language>.js file, they can be referenced from block definitions with BKY_<KEY>.

Just a clarification, I'm pretty sure the %{BKY_<KEY>} notation only works for the JSON notation of blocks. This is our preferred notation going forward. If you're still using the JavaScript calls, use Blockly.Msg.<KEY> or Blockly.Msg["<KEY>"] directly.

The Android version doesn't have made localization implemented. The JSON block definitions have the raw strings. You will need to replace each of those. This could probably be scripted.

Or implement localization support that takes in the localization .JSON file. We take pull requests.

Hi, Cory

thank you for your answer.

It is useful.

but, my project is Andorid demo of blockly. 

I replace the en.js with zh-hans.js, but the text of the block is not changed.

And I think maybe the zh-hans.json isn't used,

Where should I replace it or add it ?
