Dolibarr in Japanese Language

Hello guys,

I used dolibarr before for a little time, however I didn’t dive deeply into it, but I found it very easy to use and develop custom modules with it, and I managed to develop my own modules in one day, installable modules that create tables in database, read, write, update, delete…etc. and also tried JavaScript and I found it really easy to develop on it and expand its features, however my question is; Is dolibarr available in the Japanese language?

If not what do you suggest? How does Dolibarr deal with languages?That is something I didn’t try because the modules I developed were straight forward in English, and the company that contacted me only had an English version. In short I used it for less than a week, and that was all just developed a few modules and navigated around a bit and then I stopped using it since then, since I am working on other things.

So a help or an answer is appreciated.

Regards,
Rei

Hi Rei,
As you can see in the attached picture Dolibarr is partly translated into the Japanese language (you can change the language by going to Home->Setup->Display). I know about 3 different ways to translate non-translated strings.

  1. Use Home->Setup->Translation and edit word by word
  2. Edit .lang files
  3. Or use https://www.transifex.com just sign up and search for Dolibarr (easiest and quickest way)
    Hope that helps.
    Regards

Hi FutureHouseStore,

Thanks for your reply, it really helped.

So can I find the partly Japanese translated Dolibarr in this link https://www.transifex.com?

To be honest the documentation on Dolibarr is a bit not clear, there should be like a better user experience with the documentation.

Regards,
Rei

You are welcome Rei. The Japanese language can be found on transifex as you can see there is still a lot to translate.

Thanks FutureHouseStore,

Yes in this case then I think there is a lot of work that needs to be done.

I am not really sure where did you get this from? I requested Japanese version and got it, however there are a lot of files 65 resources/files, are all these files needed?

Hi,
Yes, each resource is to translate. Each resource covers a part of the application.
