Welcome to the German language pack

What's in the folder

• package.json - the manifest file, defining the name and description of the localization extension. It also contains the localizations contribution point that defines the language id:

        "contributes": {
            "localization": [{
                "languageId": "de",
                "languageName": "German",
                "localizedLanguageName": "Deutsch"
            }]
        }

• translations - the folder containing the translation strings

To populate or update the translations folder as with the latest strings from transifex:

• Check out the master branch of the VS Code repository.
  • Preferably, place the VSCode repo next to the language pack extension (so both have the same parent folder).
  • cd vscode and run yarn to initialize the VS Code repo.
• Get an API token from https://www.transifex.com/user/settings/api.
• Set the API token to the environment variable TRANSIFEX_API_TOKEN.
• cd to the VS Code repo
  • If the language pack extension is placed next to the VS Code repository: npm run update-localization-extension de
  • Otherwise: npm run update-localization-extension {path_to_lang_pack_ext}
• This will download translation files to the folder translations, as well as populate a translations property in the localizations contribution point.
