Mozillaxpi

From LocalizationWiki

Requirements:

 1.en-US.xpi file
 2.translate-toolkit

Procedure:

 1.create a directory,say makexpi ... $mkdir makexpi

 2.copy en-US.xpi file to makexpi directory ... $cp en-US.xpi makexpi

 3.run moz2po on en-US.xpi ... $moz2po -i en-US.xpi -o locale
     This creates a tree of localizable files (.dtd.po and .properties.po) and folders under the directory named
     locale inside makexpi directory.

     The directory structure created are:
        locale/reg
        -contains the po files,originally in the US.jar file inside en-US.xpi
        locale/lang-reg 
        -contains the po files,originally in the en-US.jar file inside en-US.xpi
        locale/unix
         -conatins the po files,orginally in the en-unix.jar file inside the en-US.xpi
        locale/mac
         -conatins the po files,orginally in the en-mac.jar file inside the en-US.xpi
        locale/win
         -conatins the po files,orginally in the en-win.jar file inside the en-US.xpi
        locale/pacage
         -contains the install.js files
          change
           langcode to dz
           regioncode to BT
           prettyName to Dzongkha(BT) 

     Apart from the po files, every directory has a file named contents.rdf in which every occurance of en-US
     needs to be changed to dz-BT, US to BT and also change chrome:displayName to "dzongkha(BT)"

 4.Once all the po files are translated, use po2moz to create the dz-BT.xpi dzongkha langpack.
   po2moz -i locale -o dz-BT.xpi -t en-US.xpi -l dz-BT
   The above command creates dz-BT.xpi using the original en-US.xpi file as the template.

 5.Installing the dzongkha xpi : Open your mozilla browser, go to files=>open file, select the dz-BT.xpi file
   and click open and then click install.A dialog box appears saying that the installation is successful.

 6.Using dzongkha xpi : In the mozilla browser, go to edit=>preferences=>appearence=>language/content.
   In the Installed Language Packs, select dzongkha(BT) and click OK. Restart mozilla to see the UI in dzongkha.
