title: Translating the docs | ||
--- | ||
|
||
{{% capture overview %}} | ||
|
||
Documentation for Kubernetes is available in multiple languages. We encourage you to add new [localizations](https://blog.mozilla.org/l10n/2011/12/14/i18n-vs-l10n-whats-the-diff/)! | ||

|
||
## Getting started | ||
|
||
Localizations must meet some requirements for workflow (*how* to localize) and output (*what* to localize) before publishing. | ||
|
||
To add a new localization of the Kubernetes documentation, you'll need to update the website by modifying the [site configuration](#modify-the-site-configuration) and [directory structure](#add-a-new-localization-directory). Then you can start [translating documents](#translating-documents)! | ||
|
||
{{< note >}} | ||
For an example localization-related [pull request](../create-pull-request), see [this pull request](https://github.com/kubernetes/website/pull/8636) to the [Kubernetes website repo](https://github.com/kubernetes/website) adding Korean localization to the Kubernetes docs. | ||
{{< /note >}} | ||
|
||
Let Kubernetes SIG Docs know you're interested in creating a localization! Join the [SIG Docs Slack channel](https://kubernetes.slack.com/messages/C1J0BPD2M/). We're happy to help you get started and answer any questions you have. | ||
|
||
All localization teams must be self-sustaining with their own resources. We're happy to host your work, but we can't translate it for you. | ||
|
||
### Fork and clone the repo | ||
|
||
First, [create your own fork](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/) of the [kubernetes/website](https://github.com/kubernetes/website). | ||
|
||
Then, clone the website repo and `cd` into it: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/website | ||
cd website | ||
``` | ||
|
||
{{< note >}} | ||
Contributors to `k/website` must [create a fork](/docs/contribute/start/#improve-existing-content) from which to open pull requests. For localizations, we ask additionally that: | ||
|
||
1. Team approvers open development branches directly from https://github.com/kubernetes/website. | ||
2. Localization contributors work from forks, with branches based on the current development branch. | ||
|
||
This is because localization projects are collaborative efforts on long-running branches, similar to the development branches for the Kubernetes release cycle. For information about localization pull requests, see ["branching strategy"](#branching-strategy). | ||

|
||
### Find your two-letter language code | ||
|
||
Consult the [ISO 639-1 standard](https://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php) for your localization's two-letter country code. For example, the two-letter code for German is `de`. | ||
|
||
{{< note >}} | ||
These instructions use the [ISO 639-1](https://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php) language code for German (`de`) as an example. | ||
|
||
There's currently no Kubernetes localization for German, but you're welcome to create one! | ||
{{< /note >}} | ||
|
||
### Modify the site configuration | ||
|
||
The Kubernetes website uses Hugo as its web framework. The website's Hugo configuration resides in the [`config.toml`](https://github.com/kubernetes/website/tree/master/config.toml) file. To support a new localization, you'll need to modify `config.toml`. | ||
|
||
Add a configuration block for the new language to `config.toml`, under the existing `[languages]` block. The German block, for example, looks like: | ||
|
||
```toml | ||
[languages.de] | ||
title = "Kubernetes" | ||
description = "Produktionsreife Container-Verwaltung" | ||
languageName = "Deutsch" | ||
contentDir = "content/de" | ||
weight = 3 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
When assigning a `weight` parameter for your block, find the language block with the highest weight and add 1 to that value. | ||
|
||
For more information about Hugo's multilingual support, see "[Multilingual Mode](https://gohugo.io/content-management/multilingual/)". | ||
|
||
### Add a new localization directory | ||
|
||
Add a language-specific subdirectory to the [`content`](https://github.com/kubernetes/website/tree/master/content) folder in the repository. For example, the two-letter code for German is `de`: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
mkdir content/de | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Add a localized README | ||
|
||
To guide other localization contributors, add a new [`README-**.md`](https://help.github.com/articles/about-readmes/) to the top level of k/website, where `**` is the two-letter language code. For example, a German README file would be `README-de.md`. | ||
|
||
Provide guidance to localization contributors in the localized `README-**.md` file. Include the same information contained in `README.md` as well as: | ||
|
||
- A point of contact for the localization project | ||
- Any information specific to the localization | ||
|
||
After you create the localized README, add a link to the file from the main English file, [`README.md`'s Localizing Kubernetes Documentation] and include contact information in English. You can provide a GitHub ID, email address, [Slack channel](https://slack.com/), or other method of contact. | ||
|
||
## Translating documents | ||
|
||
Localizing *all* of the Kubernetes documentation is an enormous task. It's okay to start small and expand over time. | ||
|
||
At a minimum, all localizations must include: | ||
|
||
Description | URLs | ||
-----|----- | ||
Home | [All heading and subheading URLs](/docs/home/) | ||
Setup | [All heading and subheading URLs](/docs/setup/) | ||
Tutorials | [Kubernetes Basics](/docs/tutorials/kubernetes-basics/), [Hello Minikube](/docs/tutorials/stateless-application/hello-minikube/) | ||
Site strings | [All site strings in a new localized TOML file](https://github.com/kubernetes/website/tree/master/i18n) | ||
|
||
Translated documents must reside in their own `content/**/` subdirectory, but otherwise follow the same URL path as the English source. For example, to prepare the [Kubernetes Basics](/docs/tutorials/kubernetes-basics/) tutorial for translation into German, create a subfolder under the `content/de/` folder and copy the English source: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
mkdir -p content/de/docs/tutorials | ||
cp content/en/docs/tutorials/kubernetes-basics.md content/de/docs/tutorials/kubernetes-basics.md | ||
``` | ||
|
||
For an example of a localization-related [pull request](../create-pull-request), [this pull request](https://github.com/kubernetes/website/pull/10471) to the [Kubernetes website repo](https://github.com/kubernetes/website) added Korean localization to the Kubernetes docs. | ||
|
||
### Source Files | ||
|
||
Localizations must use English files from the most recent release as their source. The most recent version is **{{< latest-version >}}**. | ||
|
||
To find source files for the most recent release: | ||
|
||
1. Navigate to the Kubernetes website repository at https://github.com/kubernetes/website. | ||
2. Select the `release-1.X` branch for the most recent version. | ||
|
||
The latest version is **{{< latest-version >}}**, so the most recent release branch is [`{{< release-branch >}}`](https://github.com/kubernetes/website/tree/{{< release-branch >}}). | ||
|
||
### Site strings in i18n/ | ||
|
||
Localizations must include the contents of [`i18n/en.toml`](https://github.com/kubernetes/website/blob/master/i18n/en.toml) in a new language-specific file. Using German as an example: `i18n/de.toml`. | ||
|
||
Add a new localization file to `i18n/`. For example, with German (`de`): | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
cp i18n/en.toml i18n/de.toml | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Then translate the value of each string: | ||
|
||
```TOML | ||
[docs_label_i_am] | ||
other = "ICH BIN..." | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Localizing site strings lets you customize site-wide text and features: for example, the legal copyright text in the footer on each page. | ||
|
||
## Project logistics | ||
|
||
### Contact the SIG Docs chairs | ||
|
||
Contact one of the chairs of the Kubernetes [SIG Docs](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/tree/master/sig-docs#chairs) chairs when you start a new localization. | ||
|
||
### Maintainers | ||
|
||
Each localization repository must provide its own maintainers. Maintainers can be from a single organization or multiple organizations. Whenever possible, localization pull requests should be approved by a reviewer from a different organization than the translator. | ||
|
||
A localization must provide a minimum of two maintainers. (It's not possible to review and approve one's own work.) | ||
|
||
### Branching strategy | ||
|
||
Because localization projects are highly collaborative efforts, we encourage teams to work from a shared development branch. | ||
|
||
To collaborate on a development branch: | ||
|
||
1. A team member opens a development branch, usually by opening a new pull request against a source branch on https://github.com/kubernetes/website. | ||
|
||
We recommend the following branch naming scheme: | ||
|
||
`dev-<source version>-<language code>.<team milestone>` | ||
|
||
For example, an approver on a German localization team opens the development branch `dev-1.12-de.1` directly against the k/website repository, based on the source branch for Kubernetes v1.12. | ||
|
||
2. Individual contributors open feature branches based on the development branch. | ||
|
||
For example, a German contributor opens a pull request with changes to `kubernetes:dev-1.12-de.1` from `username:local-branch-name`. | ||
|
||
3. Approvers review and merge feature branches into the development branch. | ||
|
||
4. Periodically, an approver merges the development branch to its source branch. | ||
|
||
Repeat steps 1-4 as needed until the localization is complete. For example, subsequent German development branches would be: `dev-1.12-de.2`, `dev-1.12-de.3`, etc. | ||
|
||
Teams must merge localized content into the same release branch from which the content was sourced. For example, a development branch sourced from {{< release-branch >}} must be based on {{< release-branch >}}. | ||
|
||
An approver must maintain a development branch by keeping it current with its source branch and resolving merge conflicts. The longer a development branch stays open, the more maintenance it typically requires. Consider periodically merging development branches and opening new ones, rather than maintaining one extremely long-running development branch. | ||
|
||
While only approvers can merge pull requests, anyone can open a pull request for a new development branch. No special permissions are required. | ||
|
||
For more information about working from forks or directly from the repository, see ["fork and clone the repo"](#fork-and-clone-the-repo). | ||
|
||
### Upstream contributions | ||
|
||
SIG Docs welcomes [upstream contributions and corrections](/docs/contribute/intermediate#localize-content) to the English source. | ||

|
||
Once a localization meets requirements for workflow and minimum output, SIG docs will: | ||
|
||
- Enable language selection on the website | ||
- Publicize the localization's availability through [Cloud Native Computing Foundation](https://www.cncf.io/) (CNCF) channels, including the [Kubernetes blog](https://kubernetes.io/blog/). | ||
