Languages Overview

The Telco Network Cloud Orchestration (TNC-O) User Interface supports multiple languages via translation.json files. A translation file can be provided for each locale the user requires which contains mappings for all text within the TNC-O UI (see sample translation file below for reference).

            <li>
                <a href="https://ibm.github.io/telco-network-cloud-drivers//user-guides/administration/configuration/languages/language-overview.files/translation.json" >
                    translation.json
                </a>

Adding Locales to TNC-O

1. To set the translations for each locale of the TNC-O UI you need to produce a locales.tar containing the necessary elements. The TAR should include a directory for each potential locale. Each locale is represented by a directory which should include the translation.json to be used. The name of the directory should match the ISO language code it targets (ISO 639-1 codes, ISO 3166-2 codes).

+-- en-GB
|     +-- translation.json
+-- en-US
      +-- translation.json

2. Produce a TAR called locales.tar (mandatory name) using the tar command, including each locales directory:

tar -cvzf locales.tar en-GB en-US

3. The locales.tar must be loaded into your Kubernetes environment by creating a ConfigMap.

kubectl create configmap lm-locales --from-file locales.tar

4. Multiple language support can be enabled during TNC-O installation or for an already running TNC-O.
