# phpBB Translation Validator

This console application allows you to validate [phpBB](https://www.phpbb.com) language packages.

## Requirements

This extension requires PHP 5.5.9 or above.

### Installation

Firstly, download the latest British English (`en`) [language pack from phpBB.com](http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/translation/british_english/) as this is the default source language. Then clone this repository and download the dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/phpbb/phpbb-translation-validator.git
composer.phar install

For the easiest results, create a directory called `3.2` or `3.3` in the root of the Translation Validator. Upload the `en` language page into this directory, along with the languages you wish to test. Which leads e.g. to:

phpbb-translation-validator/3.2/en/
phpbb-translation-validator/3.2/fr/
phpbb-translation-validator/3.3/en/
phpbb-translation-validator/3.3/fr/
phpbb-translation-validator/translation.php

The simplest way to validate is to then run this command (the final argument is the language you wish to test and that has already been uploaded to the `3.2` directory; eg. `fr` for French):

php translation.php validate fr

There are more arguments that can be supplied. For example, suppose you wanted to have your `3.2` directory in a different location, you wanted to explicitly specify phpBB version 3.2 (default validation is against 3.3), you wanted to run in safe mode and you wanted to see all notices displayed - you would run this command:

php translation.php validate fr
--package-dir=/path/to/your/3.2
--phpbb-version=3.2
--safe-mode
--display-notices

The `--safe-mode` flag indicates that you want to parse files instead of directly including them. This is useful if you want to run validations on a web server.

If you are missing the English language files for the official Viglink extension, they can be easily donwloaded using this command:

php translation.php download --files=phpbb-extensions/viglink --phpbb-version=3.3

## Tests

![GitHub Actions CI](https://github.com/phpbb/phpbb-translation-validator/actions/workflows/phpunit.yaml/badge.svg?branch=master)

In your project you can add phpBB Translation Validator as a dependency:

{
"require-dev": {
"phpbb/translation-validator": "1.5.*"
}
}

Then add a `php vendor/bin/translation.php` call to your workflow.

We use GitHub Actions as a continuous integration server and phpunit for our unit testing.

To run the unit tests locally, use this command:

php vendor/phpunit/phpunit/phpunit tests/
