🗃️ Database setup

Users who are eligible to translate, are stored in a database. For this you would need to set up a MongoDb collection. Each document represents a user in the following scheme:

Field name	Data type	Description
username	string	Username used to log in to the site
password	string	Password used to log in to the site
languages	string[]	Language codes the user is allowed to translate
translations	integer	How many entries did the user translate?

The dashboard has no way of setting those users up. You would need to create the documents manually.

Connect your own database, by putting your credentials in ./src/main/resources/config.properties

mongoConnectionString=mongodb://localhost
databaseName=Translate
collectionName=Users

📂 Supported file formats

The supported file formats are hard coded in, to suit my needs:

.properties file

The .properties files, located under ./bot/ are translations files used in the main bot application written in java. There one file represents one language.

Regular .json file

The .json file, located under ./website.json, is responsible for translations for the website. There all languages are crammed together in one file, grouped as json objects:

{
  "en-GB": {},
  "de": {},
  "fr": {}
}

Commands .json file

Discord commands can get translated as well but because the format is a bit special it needs its own system. Check the Discord documentation for more information on them.

🏳️ Language code

I used the same language codes Discord is using. In their documentation there is no information on what they have based on their system, but I assume they used the BCP 47 system.
