3.23.4 Concepts

4c79b5
4c79b5

Inside <tt>`trunk/Translations'</tt> directory, we use "translation

4c79b5
entries" to organize artworks "translation files" and their
4c79b5
"translation templates".
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5
Translation Entries
4c79b5
4c79b5

Translation entries exists for each artwork you want to produce.

4c79b5
Translation entries can be empty directories, or directories
4c79b5
containing translation files and translation templates.  
4c79b5

4c79b5

When translation entries are empty directories, the identity entry is

4c79b5
used as reference to create file names and directories layout for
4c79b5
rendered files.  In this case, the centos-art script takes
4c79b5
one design template and outputs one non-translated file for each
4c79b5
design template available.  This configuration is mainly used to
4c79b5
produce non-translatable artworks like themes' backgrounds.
4c79b5

4c79b5

When translation entries contain translation files, the translation

4c79b5
entry implements the CentOS release schema and is used as reference to
4c79b5
create file names and directories layout for translated artworks. In
4c79b5
this case, the centos-art script applies one translation
4c79b5
file to one design template to create one translated instance which is
4c79b5
used to output one translated file. When the translated file is
4c79b5
rendered, the centos-art script remove the previous instance
4c79b5
and takes the next file in the list of translation files to repate the
4c79b5
whole process once again, and so on for all files in the list. This
4c79b5
configuration is mainly used to produce translatable artworks like
4c79b5
Anaconda's progress slide images.
4c79b5

4c79b5

To find out correspondence between translation entries and identity

4c79b5
entries, you need to look the path of both translation entries and
4c79b5
identity entries. For example, if you are using the Modern's artisitic
4c79b5
motif, the identity entry for Anaconda progress artwork is:
4c79b5

4c79b5
trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs/Modern/Distro/Anaconda/Progress
4c79b5
4c79b5

and its translation entry is:

4c79b5

4c79b5
trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/Anaconda/Progress
4c79b5
4c79b5

Note how the <tt>`Translations/'</tt> directory prefixes <tt>`Identity/'</tt>

4c79b5
directory, also how static values (e.g., Identity, Themes, Distro,
4c79b5
etc.) in the identity's entry path remain in translation's entry path,
4c79b5
and how variable values like theme names (e.g., Modern) are stript out
4c79b5
from translation's entry path. The same convenction can be applied to
4c79b5
other identity entries in order to determine their translation
4c79b5
entries, or to other translation entries to determine their identity
4c79b5
entries.
4c79b5

4c79b5
info

Note

Translation entries related to identity entries under

4c79b5
<tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs'</tt> do not use <tt>`Motifs/'</tt> in the
4c79b5
path.  We've done this because <tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes/Models'</tt>
4c79b5
structure, the other structure under <tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes'</tt>,
4c79b5
doesn't require translation paths so far. So in the sake of saving
4c79b5
characters space when building translation entries for
4c79b5
<tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs'</tt> structure, we organize Motifs
4c79b5
translation entries under <tt>`trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/'</tt>
4c79b5
directly. 
4c79b5

4c79b5

If for some reason <tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes/Models'</tt> structure

4c79b5
requires translation entries, we need to re-oraganize the current
4c79b5
directory structure accordingly.
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5

Translation entries, as described above, can be re-used by similar

4c79b5
identity entries. For example the following identity entries:
4c79b5

4c79b5
trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs/Modern/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
4c79b5
trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs/TreeFlower/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
4c79b5
trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs/Mettle/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
4c79b5
4c79b5

are all valid identity entries able to re-use translation files inside

4c79b5
Anaconda progress translation entry (the one shown in our example
4c79b5
above). This way, you can create several identity entries and maintain
4c79b5
just one translation entry for all of them.  Once you change the
4c79b5
translation files inside the common translation entry, changes inside
4c79b5
identity entries will take effect inside the next you render them.
4c79b5

4c79b5

Trying to make things plain and simple: inside CentOS Artwork

4c79b5
Repository, graphic designers can concentrate their efforts in
4c79b5
artworks look and feel (the identity entries), and translators in
4c79b5
artworks translations (the translation entries).
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5
Translation Markers
4c79b5
4c79b5

Translation markers are used in "Theme Model Designs" and

4c79b5
"Translation Files" as replacement patterns to commit content
4c79b5
translation.  When you are rendering content using
4c79b5
centos-art script inisde <tt>`trunk/Identity'</tt> structure,
4c79b5
artistic motifs and translation files are applied to model designs to
4c79b5
produce translated content as result. In order to have the appropriate
4c79b5
translation in content rendered, markers defintion in translation
4c79b5
files should match markers in model designs exactly. 
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5

4c79b5

Translation markers can be whatever text you want, but as convenction

4c79b5
we use the following to represent releases of CentOS distribution:
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5
<samp>`=MINOR_RELEASE='</samp>
4c79b5

Replace with minor release of CentOS distribution. In the schema M.N, the minor

4c79b5
release is represented by the N letter.
4c79b5

4c79b5
<samp>`=MAJOR_RELEASE='</samp>
4c79b5

Replace with major release of CentOS distribution. In the schema M.N,

4c79b5
the major release is represented by the M letter.
4c79b5

4c79b5
<samp>`=RELEASE='</samp>
4c79b5

Replace the full release of CentOS distribution. It is

4c79b5
<samp>`=MAJOR_RELEASE=.=MINOR_RELEASE='</samp> basically. 
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5

Specific translation markers convenctions are described inside

4c79b5
specific translation entries. Read translation entries documentation
4c79b5
to know more about supported translation markers.
4c79b5

4c79b5

Translation markers standardization creates a common point of

4c79b5
reference for translators and graphic designers. To have a clean
4c79b5
definition of translation markers makes possible that translators and
4c79b5
graphic designers can work together but independently one another.
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5
Translation Templates
4c79b5
4c79b5

Translation temlpates are organized inside translation entries, under

4c79b5
<tt>`Tpl/'</tt> directory. There is just one <tt>`Tpl/'</tt> per translation
4c79b5
entry. The translation template directory contains common translations
4c79b5
files for different release-specific translation directories.  The
4c79b5
translation template directory may be used as base to build
4c79b5
non-reusable translations.
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5
Translation Files
4c79b5
4c79b5

Translation files are text files with sed's commands inside,

4c79b5
replacement commands mainly. As convenction, translation file names
4c79b5
end in <samp>`.sed'</samp>. Translation files are used by centos-art
4c79b5
script to produce translated artworks for specific major releases of
4c79b5
CentOS Distribution. There are common translation files, specific
4c79b5
translation, and template translation files.
4c79b5

4c79b5

For example, the Firstboot artwork of CentOS distribution uses the

4c79b5
images <tt>`splash-small.png'</tt> and <tt>`firstboot-left.png'</tt> as based
4c79b5
to control its visual style. The <tt>`splash-small.png'</tt> image
4c79b5
contains, in its graphic design, the release number information of
4c79b5
CentOS distribution. So the <tt>`splash-small.png'</tt> is
4c79b5
release-specific. In the other hand, the <tt>`firstboot-left.png'</tt>
4c79b5
doesn't contain release number information. So the
4c79b5
<tt>`firstboot-left.png'</tt> is not release-specific.
4c79b5

4c79b5

If we want to produce Firstboot artwork for different major releases

4c79b5
of CentOS distribution, using a monolithic visual identity, all
4c79b5
Firstboot images should have the same visual style and, at the same
4c79b5
time, the release-specific information in the release-specific images. 
4c79b5

4c79b5
info

Note

The monolithic visual identity is implemented using

4c79b5
theme models (see section trunk/Identity/Themes/Models) and artistic
4c79b5
motifs (see section trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs).
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5

Assuming that both theme models and theme motifs are ready for using,

4c79b5
the initial translation entry to produce Firstboot artworks would look
4c79b5
like the following:
4c79b5

4c79b5
trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/BootUp/Firstboot/
4c79b5
|-- Tpl
4c79b5
|   `-- splash-small.sed    <-- template translation file
4c79b5
`-- firstboot-left.sed      <-- common translation file
4c79b5
4c79b5

With this translation entry, the centos-art command is able

4c79b5
to produce the image <tt>`firstboot-left.png'</tt> only. To produce
4c79b5
<tt>`splash-small.png'</tt> images for major releases (e.g., 3, 4, 5, and
4c79b5
6) of CentOS distribution we need to produce the release-specific
4c79b5
translation files using the centos-art script as following:
4c79b5

4c79b5
centos-art render --translation=/home/centos/artwork/trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/BootUp/Firstboot --filter='3,4,5,6'
4c79b5
4c79b5

The above command produces the following translation entiry:

4c79b5

4c79b5
trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/BootUp/Firstboot/
4c79b5
|-- 3
4c79b5
|   `-- splash-small.sed        <-- specific translation file
4c79b5
|-- 4
4c79b5
|   `-- splash-small.sed        <-- specific translation file
4c79b5
|-- 5
4c79b5
|   `-- splash-small.sed        <-- specific translation file
4c79b5
|-- 6
4c79b5
|   `-- splash-small.sed        <-- specific translation file
4c79b5
|-- Tpl
4c79b5
|   `-- splash-small.sed        <-- template translation file
4c79b5
`-- firstboot-left.sed          <-- common translation file
4c79b5
4c79b5

At this point centos-art is able to produce the Firstboot

4c79b5
artwork images for major releases of CentOS distribution. To add new
4c79b5
release-specific translation files, run the translation rendering
4c79b5
command with the release number you want to produce translation files
4c79b5
for in the <samp>`--filter='release-number''</samp> argument.
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5
Template Translation Files
4c79b5
4c79b5

Template translation files are translation files stored inside

4c79b5
translation template directory. Template translation files are used by
4c79b5
centos-art script to produce specific translation files
4c79b5
only. Template translation files may be empty or contain
4c79b5
sed's replacement commands. If template translation files
4c79b5
are empty files, the final specifc translation file built from it
4c79b5
contains release-specific replacement commands only. For example, the
4c79b5
Firstboot <tt>`splash-small.sed'</tt> template translation file looks like
4c79b5
the following:
4c79b5

4c79b5
# -------------------------------------
4c79b5
# $Id: splash-small.sed 5316 2010-04-04 04:42:12Z al $
4c79b5
# -------------------------------------
4c79b5
4c79b5

In the above template translation file there are three comments lines,

4c79b5
but when you render it, the centos-art adds the
4c79b5
release-specific replacement commands. In our Firstboot example, after
4c79b5
rendering Firstboot translation entry, the <tt>`splash-small.sed'</tt>
4c79b5
translation file specific to CentOS 5, looks like the following:
4c79b5

4c79b5
# Warning: Do not modify this file directly. This file is created
4c79b5
# automatically using 'centos-art' command line interface.  Any change
4c79b5
# you do in this file will be lost the next time you update
4c79b5
# translation files using 'centos-art' command line interface. If you
4c79b5
# want to improve the content of this translation file, improve its
4c79b5
# template file instead and run the 'centos-art' command line
4c79b5
# interface later to propagate your changes.
4c79b5
# -------------------------------------
4c79b5
# $Id: splash-small.sed 5316 2010-04-04 04:42:12Z al $
4c79b5
# -------------------------------------
4c79b5
4c79b5
# Release number information.
4c79b5
s!=RELEASE=!=MAJOR_RELEASE=.=MINOR_RELEASE=!g
4c79b5
s!=MINOR_RELEASE=!0!g
4c79b5
s!=MAJOR_RELEASE=!5!g
4c79b5
4c79b5

If template translation files are not empty, replacement commands

4c79b5
inside template translation files are preserved inside
4c79b5
release-specific translation files.  For example, consider the English
4c79b5
template translation file of Anaconda progress welcome slide.  The
4c79b5
translation template directory structure looks like the following:
4c79b5

4c79b5
trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
4c79b5
`-- Tpl
4c79b5
    `-- en
4c79b5
        `-- 01-welcome.sed
4c79b5
4c79b5

and if we render translation files for CentOS 4 and CentOS 5 major

4c79b5
releases, the translation entry would look like the following:
4c79b5

4c79b5
trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
4c79b5
|-- 4
4c79b5
|   `-- en
4c79b5
|       `-- 01-welcome.sed
4c79b5
|-- 5
4c79b5
|   `-- en
4c79b5
|       `-- 01-welcome.sed
4c79b5
`-- Tpl
4c79b5
    `-- en
4c79b5
        `-- 01-welcome.sed
4c79b5
4c79b5
info

Note

Release-specific translation directories preserve

4c79b5
template translation directory structure and file names.
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5

In the example above, the template translation file looks like the

4c79b5
following:
4c79b5

4c79b5
# ------------------------------------------------------------
4c79b5
# $Id: 01-welcome.sed 4959 2010-03-18 02:27:24Z al $

and after render release-specific translation files, specific

4c79b5
translation files look like the following:
4c79b5

In the example above, relevant lines begin with the <samp>`s'</samp> word

4c79b5
followed by a separation character (e.g., <samp>`/'</samp>, <samp>`!'</samp>, etc.).
4c79b5
These lines have the following format:

character within any given s command.  The <samp>`/'</samp>
4c79b5
character (or whatever other character is used in its stead) can
4c79b5
appear in the REGEXP or REPLACEMENT only if it is preceded by a
4c79b5
<samp>`\'</samp> character.

The s command is probably the most important in

4c79b5
sed and has a lot of different options.  Its basic concept
4c79b5
is simple: the s command attempts to match the pattern space
4c79b5
against the supplied REGEXP; if the match is successful, then that
4c79b5
portion of the pattern space which was matched is replaced with
4c79b5
REPLACEMENT.

Tip

For more information about how to use sed's

4c79b5
replacement commands and flags, read sed's documentation
4c79b5
manual using the following command:
4c79b5

info sed
4c79b5
4c79b5
4c79b5

In the context of our translation files, the REGEXP space is where you

4c79b5
define translation markers and REPLACEMENT space is where you define
4c79b5
the translation text you want to have after artwork rendering.
4c79b5
Sometimes we use the FLAG component with the <samp>`g'</samp> command to apply
4c79b5
the replacements globally.
4c79b5

4c79b5

Tip

Use sed's <samp>`g'</samp> flag when one translation

4c79b5
marker needs to be replaced many times in the same translation file.
4c79b5

4c79b5
4c79b5

Inside translation files, you can use translation markers not only in

4c79b5
the REGEXP space but in the REPLACEMENT space too. In order for this
4c79b5
configuration to work, the REPLACEMENT of translation markers need to
4c79b5
be define after its definition. For example, see in the
4c79b5
release-specific translation file above how the
4c79b5
<samp>`s!=MAJOR_RELASE=!5!g'</samp> replacement command is defined
4c79b5
after <samp>`=MAJOR_RELASE='</samp> translation marker definition in
4c79b5
the REPLACEMENT space of <samp>`=TITLE='</samp> translation marker replacement
4c79b5
command.

Common Translation Files
4c79b5
4c79b5

Common translation files contain common localization or no

4c79b5
localization at all for their related artworks.  They are in the root
4c79b5
directory of the translation entry. Common translation files create
4c79b5
common artworks for all major releases of CentOS Distribution.

Specific Translation Files
4c79b5
4c79b5

Specific translation files contain specific localization for their

4c79b5
related artworks. Specific translation files are not in the root
4c79b5
directory of the translation entry. Specific translation files are
4c79b5
inside directories which describe the type of translation they are
4c79b5
doing.

Translation Rendering
4c79b5
4c79b5

When rendering translations, the centos-art script checks

4c79b5
the translation entry to verify that it has a translation template
4c79b5
directory inside. The translation template directory (<tt>`Tpl/'</tt>)
4c79b5
contains common translation files used to build release-specific
4c79b5
translation files. If the translation template directory doesn't exist
4c79b5
inside the translation entry the translation rendering fails. In this
4c79b5
case the centos-art script outputs a message and quits
4c79b5
script execution.
4c79b5

4c79b5
Translation (Pre-)Rendering Configuration Scripts
4c79b5

When the centos-art script finds a translation template

4c79b5
directory inside translation entry, it looks for translations
4c79b5
pre-rendering configuration scripts for that translation entry.
4c79b5
Translation pre-rendeirng configuration scripts let you extend
4c79b5
translation's default functionality (described below). 
4c79b5

4c79b5

Translation pre-rendering configuration scripts are stored in the

4c79b5
<tt>`trunk/Scripts'</tt> directory structure, inside the appropriate
4c79b5
language implementation. If you are using centos-art Bash's
4c79b5
implementation, the translation pre-rendering scripts are store in the
4c79b5
<tt>`trunk/Scripts/Bash/Config'</tt> location; if you are using
4c79b5
centos-art Python's implementation, then translation
4c79b5
pre-rendering scripts are stored in the
4c79b5
<tt>`trunk/Scripts/Python/Config'</tt> location, and so on for other
4c79b5
implementations.
4c79b5

4c79b5

Bash's translation pre-rendering configuration scripts look like the

4c79b5
following:
4c79b5

4c79b5
#!/bin/bash
4c79b5
#
4c79b5
# loadConfiguration.sh -- brief description here.

4c79b5

Translation pre-rendering scripts are function scripts loaded and

4c79b5
executed when rendering a translation entry. Translation pre-rendering
4c79b5
scripts are loaded using the translation entry being rendered as
4c79b5
reference. For example, suppose you are using the
4c79b5
centos-art Bash's implementation, and you are rendering
4c79b5
translations for CentOS brands, in this situation the translation
4c79b5
entry would be:
4c79b5

4c79b5
trunk/Translations/Identity/Brands
4c79b5
4c79b5

and the entry inside the translation pre-rendering configuration

4c79b5
structure would be
4c79b5

4c79b5
trunk/Scripts/Bash/Config/Identity/Brands
4c79b5
4c79b5

Once the centos-art Bash's implementation detects that

4c79b5
translation pre-rendering configuration directory exists, it looks for
4c79b5
the <tt>`render.conf.sh'</tt> script file. If the <tt>`render.conf.sh'</tt>
4c79b5
file exists, it is loaded and executed. Once the <tt>`render.conf.sh'</tt>
4c79b5
file has been executed the translation rendering is over and the
4c79b5
script execution ends.

Translations Rendering Default Functionality
4c79b5

In contrast, if there is no <tt>`render.conf.sh'</tt> file or it isn't

4c79b5
written as a function script, the centos-art script ignores
4c79b5
it and passes to apply default translation process instead.
4c79b5

4c79b5

The default translation process takes place using translation

4c79b5
templates available inside translation entry. It is simple. The
4c79b5
centos-art script takes the template structure and
4c79b5
duplicates it inside a release-specific translation structure using
4c79b5
the <samp>`release-number'</samp> value, passed in the
4c79b5
<samp>`--filter='release-number''</samp> argument, as reference. Inside
4c79b5
release-specific translation files, release number replacements are
4c79b5
added at the end of each file to provide release-specific translation
4c79b5
to release-specific translation markers inside translation files.
