733034 - Migrate all .lang files for locales to the root of the repo

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

So as to be able to share .lang files between the PHP powered site and the bedrock site easily, I am going to move all the .lang files at the root of the site in this path:

trunk/locales/ab-CD/*.lang

That means adjusting all our l10n code to use this new location as well as updating the scripts that power the webdashboard to not loose tracking of strings.

Attachment: list of calls to update

for reference, this is the list of calls to our l10n class that will need a path update once the files move to their new location.

generated with
ack-grep "l10n\->load\(" > langcalls.txt
ack-grep "::load\(" >> langcalls.txt

files moved and calls updated in r102565

Comment 3

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

This is done, no regression on trunk

Comment 4

Why this change? Now localizers need to pull two directories?

Comment 5

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

Yes, this is less convenient for now but we need to share the files between the current php site and the future python based sites that will live together and need to share that data. New files to be localized will be on this new repository.

ja is missing under locale. Is this intended? We only need snippets.lang, though.

Comment 7

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

ja is missing also on the l10n dashboard.

Comment 8

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

no, that's not intended, it's because ja is a specific case ;) I am going to fix that this morning.

Comment 9

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

kohei, both issues for ja are now fixed
