title: Translation
|
||
|
|
---
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Translation in authentik is done in two places. Most of the text is defined in the frontend in `web/`, and a subset of messages is defined in the backend.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The frontend uses [lingui](https://lingui.js.org/), and the backend uses the built-in django translation tools.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Frontend
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you want to translate the frontend to a new language, ensure the language code is in the `package.json` file in `web/`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```json
|
||
|
|
// [...]
|
||
|
|
"lingui": {
|
||
|
|
// [...]
|
||
|
|
"locales": [
|
||
|
|
"en",
|
||
|
|
"pseudo-LOCALE",
|
||
|
|
"a-new-locale"
|
||
|
|
],
|
||
|
|
// [...]
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Afterwards, run `npx lingui extract` to generate a base .po file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The .po files can be edited by any text editor, or using a tool such as [POEdit](https://poedit.net/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To see the change, run `npm run watch` in the `web/` directory.
