# Internationalization Lib for Minetest
|
|
|
|
## DEPRECATED - Use Minetest's new translation API instead!
|
|
|
|
You should not use this mod when writing new mods, and you should update mods to no longer depend on this mod.
|
|
|
|
Minetest 5.0 has builtin support for client-side translation, accessed by `minetest.get_translator()`
|
|
|
|
## Aboud

By Diego Martínez (kaeza).
|
|
Released under Unlicense. See `LICENSE.md` for details.
|
|
|
|
This mod is an attempt at providing internationalization support for mods
|
|
(something Minetest currently lacks).
|
|
|
|
Should you have any comments/suggestions, please post them in the
|
|
[forum topic][topic]. For bug reports, use the [bug tracker][bugtracker]
|
|
on Github.

|
|
## How to use
|
|
|
|
If you are a regular player looking for translated texts, just
|
|
[install][installing_mods] this mod like any other one, then enable it
|
|
in the GUI.
|
|
|
|
The mod tries to detect your language, but since there's currently no
|
|
portable way to do this, it tries several alternatives:
|
|
|
|
* `language` setting in `minetest.conf`.
|
|
* `LANGUAGE` environment variable.
|
|
* `LANG` environment variable.
|
|
* If all else fails, uses `en`.
|
|
|
|
In any case, the end result should be the [ISO 639-1 Language Code][ISO639-1]
|
|
of the desired language.
|
|
