# Application localization documentation
Source files are in `client/src/locale` and translated files merged from [Weblate](https://weblate.framasoft.org/translate/peertube).
## Generation
Will generate XLIFF base files for Angular (`angular.xlf`) and JSON files for the player (`player.en-US.json`) and the server (`server.en-US.json`).
Then, it will merge new translation keys into localized Angular files (`angular.fr-FR.xlf` etc).
**Only generate new translations after a Weblate pull to avoid conflicts**
```
$ npm run i18n:generate
```
## Upload on Weblate
Nothing to do here, Github will automatically send a webhook to Weblate that will pull changes.
## Pull translation
* First, save translations on Weblate so it commits changes.
* Then, fetch these commits: `git fetch weblate && git merge weblate/develop`
## Support a new language
* Add it to [/shared/models/i18n/i18n.ts](/shared/models/i18n/i18n.ts)
* Add it to [/scripts/build/client.sh](/scripts/build/client.sh)
* Add it to [/client/angular.json](/client/angular.json) (in multiple sections), then **pull** and **generate**
* Build the application and check the new language correctly works
