Quick setup guide
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
This is just a quick guide for installing and starting to use Weblate for
|
|
testing purposes. Please check :ref:`install` for more real world setup
|
|
instructions.
|
|
|
|
Choosing installation method
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Choose best installation method depending on your environment and customization you need:
|
|
|
|
1. Choose Docker if you are familiar with that and if you are not going to change Weblate code, see :ref:`quick-docker`.
|
|
2. If you are not going to change Weblate code, but want to avoid Docker install in virtual env, see :ref:`quick-virtualenv`.
|
|
3. If you want to develop and/or change Weblate code, grab Weblate from Git, see :ref:`quick-source`.
|
|
|
|
.. _quick-virtualenv:
|
|
|
|
Installing in a virtualenv
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you'd just like to do a quick installation locally on your device to find
|
|
out if Weblate is for you, you can install it using a virtual environment for
|
|
Python 2, a simple (and slow!) SQLite database, and the lightweight Django
|
|
development server.
|
|
|
|
#. Install development files for libraries needed for building some
|
|
Python modules:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
# Debian/Ubuntu:
|
|
apt install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev libfreetype6-dev libjpeg-dev libz-dev libyaml-dev python-dev
|
|
|
|
# openSUSE/SLES:
|
|
zypper install libxslt-devel libxml2-devel freetype-devel libjpeg-devel zlib-devel libyaml-devel python-devel
|
|
|
|
# Fedora/RHEL/CentOS:
|
|
dnf install libxslt-devel libxml2-devel freetype-devel libjpeg-devel zlib-devel libyaml-devel python-devel
|
|
|
|
#. Install pip and virtualenv. Usually they are shipped by your distribution or
|
|
with Python:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
# Debian/Ubuntu:
|
|
apt-get install python-pip python-virtualenv
|
|
|
|
# openSUSE/SLES:
|
|
zypper install python-pip python-virtualenv
|
|
|
|
# Fedora/RHEL/CentOS:
|
|
dnf install python-pip python-virtualenv
|
|
|
|
#. Create the virtualenv for Weblate:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
virtualenv ~/weblate-env
|
|
|
|
#. Activate the virtualenv for Weblate, so Weblate will look for Python libraries there first:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
. ~/weblate-env/bin/activate
|
|
|
|
#. Install Weblate including all dependencies. You can also use pip to install
|
|
the optional dependencies:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
pip install Weblate
|
|
# Optional deps
|
|
pip install pytz python-bidi PyYAML pyuca
|
|
|
|
#. Copy the file :file:`~/weblate-env/lib/python2.7/site-packages/weblate/settings-example.py`
|
|
to :file:`~/weblate-env/lib/python2.7/site-packages/weblate/settings.py`
|
|
|
|
#. Optionally, adjust the values in the new :file:`settings.py` file.
|
|
|
|
#. Create the SQLite database and its structure for Weblate:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
weblate migrate
|
|
|
|
#. Create the administrator user account and copy the password it outputs
|
|
to the clipboard, and maybe also save it to a text file for later use:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
weblate createadmin
|
|
|
|
#. Start the development server:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
weblate runserver
|
|
|
|
#. Open a web browser, go to http://localhost:8000/accounts/login/
|
|
and login with the user name `admin` and paste the password in.
|
|
|
|
#. Proceed with :ref:`add-translatable-contents` to add some translatable contents to
|
|
your test installation.
|
|
|
|
You can stop the test server with Ctrl+C, and leave the virtual environment with ``deactivate``.
|
|
If you want to resume testing later, you need to repeat the steps 4, 8 and 11 each time to start the development server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _quick-source:
|
|
|
|
Installing from sources
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
#. Grab Weblate sources (either using Git or download a tarball) and unpack
|
|
them, see :ref:`install-weblate`.
|
|
|
|
#. Install all required dependencies into an virtual env (also see :ref:`requirements`):
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
virtualenv .venv
|
|
. .venv/bin/activate
|
|
pip install -r /path/to/weblate/requirements.txt
|
|
|
|
#. Copy :file:`weblate/settings_example.py` to :file:`weblate/settings.py` and
|
|
adjust it to match your setup. You will at least need to configure the database
|
|
connection (possibly adding user and creating the database). Check
|
|
:ref:`config` for Weblate specific configuration options.
|
|
|
|
#. Create the database which will be used by Weblate, see :ref:`database-setup`.
|
|
|
|
#. Build Django tables, static files and initial data (see
|
|
:ref:`tables-setup` and :ref:`static-files`):
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
./manage.py migrate
|
|
./manage.py collectstatic
|
|
./scripts/generate-locales # If you are using Git checkout
|
|
|
|
#. Configure webserver to serve Weblate, see :ref:`server`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _quick-docker:
|
|
|
|
Installing using Docker
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
#. Clone weblate-docker repo:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/WeblateOrg/docker-compose.git weblate-docker
|
|
cd weblate-docker
|
|
|
|
#. Start Weblate containers:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
docker-compose up
|
|
|
|
.. seealso::
|
|
|
|
See :ref:`docker` for more detailed instructions and customization options.
|
|
|
|
.. _quick-openshift:
|
|
|
|
Installing on OpenShift 2
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
#. You can install Weblate on OpenShift PaaS directly from its Git repository using the OpenShift Client Tools:
|
|
|
|
.. parsed-literal::
|
|
|
|
rhc -aweblate app create -t python-2.7 --from-code \https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate.git --no-git
|
|
|
|
#. After installation everything should be preconfigured and you can immediately start to add a translation
|
|
project as described below.
|
|
|
|
.. seealso::
|
|
|
|
For more information, including on how to retrieve the generated admin password, see :ref:`openshift`.
|
|
|
|
.. _add-translatable-contents:
|
|
|
|
Adding translation
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
#. Open admin interface (http://localhost/admin/) and create project you
|
|
want to translate. See :ref:`project` for more details.
|
|
|
|
All you need to specify here is project name and its website.
|
|
|
|
#. Create component which is the real object for translating - it points to
|
|
VCS repository and selects which files to translate. See :ref:`component`
|
|
for more details.
|
|
|
|
The important fields here being component name, VCS repository address and
|
|
mask for finding translatable files. Weblate supports a wide range of formats
|
|
including Gettext PO files, Android resource strings, OS X string properties,
|
|
Java properties or Qt Linguist files, see :ref:`formats` for more details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#. Once the above is completed (it can be lengthy process depending on size of
|
|
your VCS repository and number of messages to translate), you can start
|
|
translating.
