To add new strings, or to translate existing strings, go the the Localazy project: [https://localazy.com/p/element](https://localazy.com/p/element). Please follow the key naming rules (see below).
For code clarity and in order to download strings to the correct module, here are some naming rules to follow as much as possible:
- Keys for common strings, i.e. strings that can be used at multiple places must start by `action_` if this is a verb, or `common_` if not;
- Keys for strings used in a single screen must start with `screen_` followed by the screen name, followed by a free name. Example: `screen_onboarding_welcome_title`;
- Keys can have `_title` or `_subtitle` suffixes. Example: `screen_onboarding_welcome_title`, `screen_change_server_subtitle`;
- Strings for error message can start by `error_`, or contain `_error_` if used in a specific screen only. Example: `error_some_messages_have_not_been_sent`, `screen_change_server_error_invalid_homeserver`.
*Note*: those rules applies for `strings` and for `plurals`.
It will update all the `localazy.xml` and `translations.xml` resource files. In case of merge conflicts, just erase the files and download again using the script.
## Add translations to a specific module
Edit the file [config.json](./config.json) to add a new module, or add a new item in `includeRegex` arrays, then run the script again to see the effect.
[generateLocalazyConfig.py](generateLocalazyConfig.py) is the Python script that convert `config.json` to a localazy configuration file. Generally you should not edit this file.
