Localization for the Activiti Designer?

prace

hi all,

is there any work in progress to localize the UI of the Activiti Designer?

I lookes at the source code and it seems like all the strings have to be externalized and then there needs to be some language packs …

thx

Hi,

No not at the moment, but first all strings have to be externalized as you said.
That shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Are you looking for specifc language packs? And can you help us with implementing these language packs?

Best regards,

prace

hi,

we are looking for a german language pack and maybe we can do some work on that. I need to check that ..

Hi,

Okay. If you can help me with the German localization, I'm certainly willing to implement localization in the Designer codebase.
Just let me know.

Best regards,

prace

sounds good.
We can help with the localization to german. How to proceed?

bye

Hi,

Do you have any plan to support Asian languages?

If you want, I can help with the Korean localization.

Hi,

If we have the localization implemented in the Designer, every language contribution would be great.
I'll first implement the localization in the source code and then I'll post a request for help with the language files on the user forum, is that a good approach?

Best regards,

Great!

Hi,

I have 2 questions about this localization.

1. Will it include localization of the runrime process image?

I get progress image by the below method:

imageStream = ProcessDiagramGenerator.generateDiagram(
processDefinitionEntity, "png",
runtimeService.getActiveActivityIds(wfInstanceId));

This is defferent from the disigner process image till now.

2. Will it include localized properties and messages also?

Especially in custom extension, can I specify multi-lingual property names, help messages, property items, etc?

Best regards,

steve1

After some thought, I think that the question number 2 on the above post is not about localization, but about multi-lingual support.

If we can design process that can be viewed on their native language all over the world, it will be good.

How do you think?

And can this be included with this localization?

@trademak: ok. thanks!

Hi,

No comment means no plan about my previous question now?

I think there is a confusion about my understanding of the UI localization.

Can you please tell me a hint about a future plan about these features?

No discussion or not feasible with the BPMN 2.0 or priority is lower than others?

Summarized question:

1. We can get progress image, but it's defferent from the design, and Asian language is not displayed.

This is what I use to get the progress image:

imageStream = ProcessDiagramGenerator.generateDiagram(
processDefinitionEntity, "png",
runtimeService.getActiveActivityIds(wfInstanceId));

2. Can I specify properties in multi-lingual values?

If for example, I specify name of the node in multi-lingual values, the process will be shown with the specified language in design time and in runtime(progress image) also.

In case of the custom node, it will be great if we can specify multi-lingual values on the property names, help messages, property items, etc.

It will be required when we design a global process, and now my application needs it.

Any comment will be appreciated.

Hi, this is the awsome approach

, but is there any news about implementation of the localization?

Not that we are voting, but I would vote +1 to have better localization support in activiti especially in regards to the generation of process diagram (definition/instance) generation. In order for us to use this capability in our product using Activiti we HAVE to be able to localize all aspects of the presentation.

Localization (I18N) should never be an after thought in a product that has visual components (e.g., generated diagram images).

We find these diagrams very useful in our product, but no way that we are aware to support their generation in multiple locales.
