    3.34.2 Description

    70ef27
    1023f4

    When you create artwork for CentOS distribution you find that some

    1023f4
    artworks need to be created for different major releases of CentOS
    1023f4
    distribution and inside each major release that needs to be created for
    1023f4
    different locales. To get an approximate idea of how many files we are
    1023f4
    talking about, consider the followig approximate statistic:
    1023f4

    1023f4
      1023f4
    • Inside CentOS distribution, there are around 30 images to
    • 1023f4
      rebrand.(2)
      70ef27
      1023f4
    • There are near to four major releases of CentOS distribution to
    • 1023f4
      rebrand in parallel development.(3) 
      70ef27
      1023f4
    • Each CentOS distribution in parallel development supports more
    • 1023f4
      than two hundreds locales.(4)
      1023f4
      1023f4
      1023f4

      In order to aliviate maintainance of artwork production for such

      1023f4
      environment, we divided artwork production in three production lines:
      1023f4

      1023f4
        1023f4
      1. See section trunk/Identity/Themes/Models, to define artworks
      2. 1023f4
        characteristics (e.g., dimensions, position on the screen, etc.).
        1023f4
      3. See section trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs, to define artworks visual
      4. 1023f4
        styles (e.g., the look and feel).
        1023f4
      5. Translations, to define which major releases and locales
      6. 1023f4
        artworks are produced for. 
        1023f4
        1023f4
        1023f4

        Inside CentOS Artwork Repository, the artworks' translation production

        1023f4
        line is stored under <tt>`trunk/Translations'</tt> directory.
        70ef27

        1023f4

        Inside <tt>`trunk/Translations'</tt> directory, we use "translation

        1023f4
        entries" to organize artworks' "translation files" and artworks'
        1023f4
        "translation templates".
        70ef27

        1023f4

        3.34.2.1 Translation Entries

        1023f4
        1023f4

        Translation entries exists for each artwork you want to produce.

        1023f4
        Translation entries can be empty directories, or directories
        1023f4
        containing translation files and translation templates.  
        1023f4

        1023f4

        When translation entries are empty directories, the identity entry is

        1023f4
        used as reference to create file names and directories layout for
        1023f4
        rendered files.  In this case, the centos-art script takes
        1023f4
        one design template and outputs one non-translated file for each
        1023f4
        design template available.  This configuration is mainly used to
        1023f4
        produce non-translatable artworks like themes' backgrounds.
        1023f4

        1023f4

        When translation entries contain translation files, the translation

        1023f4
        entry implements the CentOS release schema and is used as reference to
        1023f4
        create file names and directories layout for translated artworks. In
        1023f4
        this case, the centos-art script applies one translation
        1023f4
        file to one design template to create one translated instance which is
        1023f4
        used to output one translated file. When the translated file is
        1023f4
        rendered, the centos-art script remove the previous instance
        1023f4
        and takes the next file in the list of translation files to repate the
        1023f4
        whole process once again, and so on for all files in the list. This
        1023f4
        configuration is mainly used to produce translatable artworks like
        1023f4
        Anaconda progress slide images.
        1023f4

        1023f4

        To find out correspondence between translation entries and identity

        1023f4
        entries, you need to look the path of both translation entries and
        1023f4
        identity entries. For example, if you are using the Modern
        1023f4
        artisitic motif, the identity entry for Anaconda progress artwork is:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs/Modern/Distro/Anaconda/Progress
        1023f4
        1023f4

        and its translation entry is:

        1023f4

        1023f4
        trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/Anaconda/Progress
        1023f4
        1023f4

        Note how the <tt>`Translations/'</tt> directory prefixes <tt>`Identity/'</tt>

        1023f4
        directory, also how static values (e.g., Identity, Themes, Distro,
        1023f4
        etc.) in the identity entry path remain in translation entry path, and
        1023f4
        how variable values like theme names (e.g., Modern) are stript
        1023f4
        out from translation entry path. The same convenction can be applied
        1023f4
        to other identity entries in order to determine their translation
        1023f4
        entries, or to other translation entries to determine their identity
        1023f4
        entries.
        1023f4

        1023f4
        info

        Note

        Translation entries related to identity entries under

        1023f4
        <tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs'</tt> do not use <tt>`Motifs/'</tt> in the
        1023f4
        path.  We've done this because <tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes/Models'</tt>
        1023f4
        structure, the other structure under <tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes'</tt>,
        1023f4
        doesn't require translation paths so far. So in the sake of saving
        1023f4
        characters space when building translation entries for
        1023f4
        <tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs'</tt> structure, we organize Motifs
        1023f4
        translation entries under <tt>`trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/'</tt>
        1023f4
        directly. 
        1023f4

        1023f4

        If for some reason <tt>`trunk/Identity/Themes/Models'</tt> structure

        1023f4
        requires translation entries, we need to re-oraganize the current
        1023f4
        directory structure accordingly.
        70ef27

        70ef27
        1023f4

        Translation entries, as described above, can be re-used by similar

        1023f4
        identity entries. For example the following identity entries:
        70ef27

        1023f4
        trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs/Modern/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
        1023f4
        trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs/TreeFlower/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
        1023f4
        trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs/Mettle/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
        1023f4
        1023f4

        are all valid identity entries able to re-use translation files inside

        1023f4
        Anaconda progress translation entry (the one shown in our example
        1023f4
        above). This way, you can create several identity entries and maintain
        1023f4
        just one translation entry for all of them.  Once you change the
        1023f4
        translation files inside the common translation entry, changes inside
        1023f4
        identity entries will take effect inside the next you render them.
        1023f4

        1023f4

        Trying to make things plain and simple: inside CentOS Artwork

        1023f4
        Repository, graphic designers can concentrate their efforts in
        1023f4
        artworks look and feel (the identity entries), and translators in
        1023f4
        artworks translations (the translation entries).

        3.34.2.2 Translation Markers

        1023f4

        1023f4
        1023f4

        1023f4

        Translation markers are used in "Theme Model Designs" and

        1023f4
        "Translation Files" as replacement patterns to commit content
        1023f4
        translation.  When you are rendering content using
        1023f4
        centos-art script inisde <tt>`trunk/Identity'</tt> structure,
        1023f4
        artistic motifs and translation files are applied to model designs to
        1023f4
        produce translated content as result. In order to have the appropriate
        1023f4
        translation in content rendered, markers defintion in translation
        1023f4
        files should match markers in model designs exactly. 
        1023f4

        1023f4

        Translation markers can be whatever text you want, but as convenction

        1023f4
        we use the following to represent releases of CentOS distribution:
        70ef27

        70ef27
        1023f4
        <samp>`=MINOR_RELEASE='</samp>
        1023f4

        Replace with minor release of CentOS distribution. In the schema M.N, the minor

        1023f4
        release is represented by the N letter.
        1023f4

        1023f4
        <samp>`=MAJOR_RELEASE='</samp>
        1023f4

        Replace with major release of CentOS distribution. In the schema M.N,

        1023f4
        the major release is represented by the M letter.
        1023f4

        1023f4
        <samp>`=RELEASE='</samp>
        1023f4

        Replace the full release of CentOS distribution. It is

        1023f4
        <samp>`=MAJOR_RELEASE=.=MINOR_RELEASE='</samp> basically. 
        1023f4

        70ef27
        008ee0
        1023f4

        Specific translation markers convenctions are described inside

        1023f4
        specific translation entries. Read translation entries documentation
        1023f4
        to know more about supported translation markers.
        70ef27

        1023f4

        Translation markers standardization creates a common point of

        1023f4
        reference for translators and graphic designers. To have translation
        1023f4
        markers well defined makes possible that translators and graphic
        1023f4
        designers can work together but independently one another.
        70ef27

        1023f4
        1023f4
        1023f4

        3.34.2.3 Translation Files

        1023f4
        1023f4

        Translation files are text files with sed commands inside,

        1023f4
        replacement commands mainly. As convenction, translation file names
        1023f4
        end in <samp>`.sed'</samp>. Translation files are used by centos-art
        1023f4
        script to produce translated artworks for specific major releases of
        1023f4
        CentOS Distribution. There are common translation files, specific
        1023f4
        translation, and template translation files.
        1023f4

        1023f4

        For example, the Firstboot artwork of CentOS distribution uses the

        1023f4
        images <tt>`splash-small.png'</tt> and <tt>`firstboot-left.png'</tt> as based
        1023f4
        to control its visual style. The <tt>`splash-small.png'</tt> image
        1023f4
        contains, in its graphic design, the release number information of
        1023f4
        CentOS distribution. So the <tt>`splash-small.png'</tt> is
        1023f4
        release-specific. In the other hand, the <tt>`firstboot-left.png'</tt>
        1023f4
        doesn't contain release number information. So the
        1023f4
        <tt>`firstboot-left.png'</tt> is not release-specific.
        1023f4

        1023f4

        If we want to produce Firstboot artwork for different major releases

        1023f4
        of CentOS distribution, using a monolithic visual identity, all
        1023f4
        Firstboot images should have the same visual style and, at the same
        1023f4
        time, the release-specific information in the release-specific images. 
        1023f4

        1023f4
        info

        Note

        The monolithic visual identity is implemented using

        1023f4
        theme models (see section trunk/Identity/Themes/Models) and artistic
        1023f4
        motifs (see section trunk/Identity/Themes/Motifs).
        1023f4

        1023f4
        1023f4

        Assuming that both theme models and theme motifs are ready for using,

        1023f4
        the initial translation entry to produce Firstboot artworks would look
        1023f4
        like the following:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/BootUp/Firstboot/
        1023f4
        |-- Tpl
        1023f4
        |   `-- splash-small.sed
        1023f4
        `-- firstboot-left.sed
        70ef27
        1023f4

        With the translation entry above, centos-art command is able

        1023f4
        to produce the image <tt>`firstboot-left.png'</tt> only. To produce
        1023f4
        <tt>`splash-small.png'</tt> images for major releases (e.g., 3, 4, 5, and
        1023f4
        6) of CentOS distribution we need to produce the release-specific
        1023f4
        translation files using the centos-art script as following:
        70ef27

        1023f4
        centos-art render --entry=/home/centos/artwork/trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/BootUp/Firstboot --filter='3,4,5,6'
        70ef27
        1023f4

        The above command produces the following translation entiry:

        1023f4

        1023f4
        trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/BootUp/Firstboot/
        1023f4
        |-- 3
        1023f4

        At this point centos-art is able to produce the Firstboot

        1023f4
        artwork images for major releases of CentOS distribution. To add new
        1023f4
        release-specific translation files, run the translation rendering
        1023f4
        command with the release number you want to produce translation files
        1023f4
        for in the <samp>`--filter='release-number''</samp> argument.

        3.34.2.4 Template Translation Files

        1023f4
        1023f4

        Template translation files are translation files stored inside

        1023f4
        translation template directory. Template translation files are used by
        1023f4
        centos-art script to produce specific translation files
        1023f4
        only. Template translation files may be empty or contain sed
        1023f4
        replacement commands. If template translation files are empty files,
        1023f4
        the final specifc translation file built from it contains
        1023f4
        release-specific replacement commands only. For example, see the
        1023f4
        following translation entry:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/BootUp/Firstboot/
        1023f4
        |-- 3
        1023f4
        |   `-- splash-small.sed
        1023f4
        |-- 4
        1023f4
        |   `-- splash-small.sed
        1023f4
        |-- 5
        1023f4
        |   `-- splash-small.sed
        1023f4
        |-- 6
        1023f4
        |   `-- splash-small.sed
        1023f4
        |-- Tpl
        1023f4
        |   `-- splash-small.sed    <-- template translation file.
        1023f4
        `-- firstboot-left.sed
        70ef27
        1023f4

        In the above exmaple, the <tt>`splash-small.sed'</tt> file is a template

        1023f4
        translation file and looks like:
        70ef27

        1023f4
        # -------------------------------------
        1023f4
        # $Id: splash-small.sed 94 2010-09-18 10:59:42Z al $
        1023f4
        # -------------------------------------
        70ef27
        1023f4

        In the above template translation file there are three comments lines,

        1023f4
        but when you render it, the centos-art adds the
        1023f4
        release-specific replacement commands. In our Firstboot example, after
        1023f4
        rendering Firstboot translation entry, the <tt>`splash-small.sed'</tt>
        1023f4
        translation file specific to CentOS 5, looks like the following:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        # Warning: Do not modify this file directly. This file is created
        1023f4
        # automatically using 'centos-art' command line interface.  Any change
        1023f4
        # you do in this file will be lost the next time you update
        1023f4
        # translation files using 'centos-art' command line interface. If you
        1023f4
        # want to improve the content of this translation file, improve its
        1023f4
        # template file instead and run the 'centos-art' command line
        1023f4
        # interface later to propagate your changes.
        1023f4
        # -------------------------------------
        1023f4
        # $Id: splash-small.sed 94 2010-09-18 10:59:42Z al $
        1023f4
        # -------------------------------------
        1023f4
        1023f4
        # Release number information.
        1023f4
        s!=RELEASE=!=MAJOR_RELEASE=.=MINOR_RELEASE=!g
        1023f4
        s!=MINOR_RELEASE=!0!g
        1023f4
        s!=MAJOR_RELEASE=!5!g
        1023f4
        1023f4

        If template translation files are not empty, replacement commands

        1023f4
        inside template translation files are preserved inside
        1023f4
        release-specific translation files.  For example, consider the English
        1023f4
        template translation file of Anaconda progress welcome slide.  The
        1023f4
        translation template directory structure looks like the following:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
        1023f4
        `-- Tpl
        1023f4
            `-- en
        1023f4
                `-- 01-welcome.sed
        1023f4
        1023f4

        and if we render translation files for CentOS 4 and CentOS 5 major

        1023f4
        releases, the translation entry would look like the following:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        trunk/Translations/Identity/Themes/Distro/Anaconda/Progress/
        1023f4
        |-- 4
        1023f4
        |   `-- en
        1023f4
        |       `-- 01-welcome.sed
        1023f4
        |-- 5
        1023f4
        |   `-- en
        1023f4
        |       `-- 01-welcome.sed
        1023f4

        1023f4
            `-- en
        1023f4
                `-- 01-welcome.sed
        1023f4
        1023f4
        info

        Note

        Release-specific translation directories preserve

        1023f4
        template translation directory structure and file names.
        1023f4

        1023f4
        1023f4

        In the example above, the template translation file looks like the

        1023f4
        following:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        # ------------------------------------------------------------
        1023f4

        1023f4
        1023f4

        and, after render the translation entry, specific translation files

        1023f4
        look like the following:
        1023f4

        1023f4

        70ef27
        1023f4

        In the example above, relevant lines begin with the <samp>`s'</samp> word

        1023f4
        followed by a separation character (e.g., <samp>`/'</samp>, <samp>`!'</samp>, etc.).
        1023f4
        These lines have the following format:
        70ef27

        1023f4
        s/REGEXP/REPLACEMENT/FLAGS
        1023f4
        1023f4

        The <samp>`/'</samp> characters may be uniformly replaced by any other single

        1023f4
        character within any given s command.  The <samp>`/'</samp>
        1023f4
        character (or whatever other character is used in its stead) can
        1023f4
        appear in the REGEXP or REPLACEMENT only if it is preceded by a
        1023f4
        <samp>`\'</samp> character.
        1023f4

        1023f4

        The s command is probably the most important in

        1023f4
        sed and has a lot of different options.  Its basic concept
        1023f4
        is simple: the s command attempts to match the pattern space
        1023f4
        against the supplied REGEXP; if the match is successful, then that
        1023f4
        portion of the pattern space which was matched is replaced with
        1023f4
        REPLACEMENT.
        1023f4

        1023f4

        In the context of our translation files, the REGEXP is where you

        1023f4
        define translation markers and REPLACEMENT where you define the
        1023f4
        translation text you want to have after artworks rendering.  Sometimes
        1023f4
        we use the FLAG component with the <samp>`g'</samp> command to apply the
        1023f4
        replacements globally.
        1023f4

        1023f4
        Info

        Tip

        More information about how to use sed

        1023f4
        replacement commands and flags is available in sed
        1023f4
        documentation manual. To read sed documentation manual type
        1023f4
        the following command: 
        1023f4

        info sed
        1023f4
        1023f4
        1023f4

        Inside translation files, you can use translation markers not only

        1023f4
        inside the REGEXP but in the REPLACEMENT too. In order for this
        1023f4
        configuration to work, the REPLACEMENT of translation markers needs to
        1023f4
        be define after its definition. For example, see in the
        1023f4
        release-specific translation file above, how the
        1023f4
        <samp>`s!=MAJOR_RELASE=!5!g'</samp> replacement command is defined
        1023f4
        after <samp>`=MAJOR_RELASE='</samp> translation marker definition in
        1023f4
        the REPLACEMENT of <samp>`=TITLE='</samp> translation marker replacement
        1023f4
        command.

        3.34.2.5 Common Translation Files

        1023f4
        1023f4

        Common translation files contain common translations or no

        1023f4
        translation at all for their related artworks.  They are in the root
        1023f4
        directory of the translation entry. Common translation files create
        1023f4
        common artworks for all major releases of CentOS Distribution. 
        1023f4

        1023f4

        Translation entries, with common translation files inside, look like

        1023f4
        the following:

        3.34.2.6 Specific Translation Files

        1023f4
        1023f4

        Specific translation files contain specific translations for their

        1023f4
        related artworks. Specific translation files are not in the root
        1023f4
        directory of the translation entry, but inside directories which
        1023f4
        describe the type of translation they are doing. Specific translation
        1023f4
        files are produced automatically using the centos-art
        1023f4
        script.

        3.34.2.7 Translation Rendering

        1023f4
        1023f4

        When rendering translations, the centos-art script checks

        1023f4
        the translation entry to verify that it has a translation template
        1023f4
        directory inside. The translation template directory (<tt>`Tpl/'</tt>)
        1023f4
        contains common translation files used to build release-specific
        1023f4
        translation files. If the translation template directory doesn't exist
        1023f4
        inside the translation entry the translation rendering fails. In this
        1023f4
        case the centos-art script outputs a message and quits
        1023f4
        script execution.

        3.34.2.8 Translation (Pre-)Rendering Configuration Scripts

        1023f4
        1023f4

        When the centos-art script finds a translation template

        1023f4
        directory inside translation entry, it looks for translations
        1023f4
        pre-rendering configuration scripts for that translation entry.
        1023f4
        Translation pre-rendering configuration scripts let you extend
        1023f4
        translation default functionality (described below). 
        1023f4

        1023f4

        Translation pre-rendering configuration scripts are stored under

        1023f4
        <tt>`trunk/Scripts'</tt> directory, specifically under the appropriate
        1023f4
        language implementation. If you are using centos-art Bash
        1023f4
        implementation, the translation pre-rendering scripts are store in the
        1023f4
        <tt>`trunk/Scripts/Bash/Config'</tt> location; if you are using
        1023f4
        centos-art Python implementation, then translation
        1023f4
        pre-rendering scripts are stored in the
        1023f4
        <tt>`trunk/Scripts/Python/Config'</tt> location, and so on for other
        1023f4
        implementations.
        1023f4

        1023f4

        Bash translation pre-rendering configuration scripts look like the

        1023f4
        following:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        #!/bin/bash
        1023f4
        #
        1023f4
        # render_loadConfig.sh -- brief description here.

        Translation pre-rendering scripts are function scripts loaded and

        1023f4
        executed when rendering a translation entry. Translation pre-rendering
        1023f4
        scripts are loaded using the translation entry being rendered as
        1023f4
        reference. For example, suppose you are using the
        1023f4
        centos-art Bash implementation, and you are rendering
        1023f4
        translations for CentOS brands, in this situation the translation
        1023f4
        entry would be:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        trunk/Translations/Identity/Brands
        70ef27
        1023f4

        and the entry inside the translation pre-rendering configuration

        1023f4
        structure would be:
        1023f4

        1023f4
        trunk/Scripts/Bash/Config/Identity/Brands
        1023f4
        1023f4

        Once the centos-art script detects that translation

        1023f4
        pre-rendering configuration directory exists, the centos-art
        1023f4
        script looks for the translation pre-rendering configuration file.  If
        1023f4
        the translation pre-rendering configuration file exists, it is loaded
        1023f4
        and executed.  Once the translation pre-rendering configuration file
        1023f4
        has been executed the translation rendering process is over, and so
        1023f4
        the script execution.

        info

        Note

        Translation pre-rendering configuration files have the

        1023f4
        following form:
        1023f4

        render.conf.extension
        1023f4

        where <samp>`extension'</samp> refers the programming language implementation

        1023f4
        you are using. For example, <samp>`sh'</samp> for Bash, <samp>`py'</samp> for Python,
        1023f4
        <samp>`pl'</samp> for Perl, and so on for other implementations.

        As we are using Bash implementation to describe the translation

        1023f4
        pre-rendering configuration example, the translation pre-rendering
        1023f4
        configuration file that centos-art looks for, inside the
        1023f4
        above translation pre-rendering configuration directory, is
        1023f4
        <tt>`render.conf.sh'</tt>.

        3.34.2.9 Translation Rendering Default Functionality

        1023f4

        In the other hand, if the translation pre-rendering configuration file

        1023f4
        doesn't exist, or it isn't written as function script, the
        1023f4
        centos-art script ignore translation pre-rendering
        1023f4
        configuration functionality and passes to render translation using
        1023f4
        default functionality instead.
        1023f4

        1023f4

        The translation rendering default functionality takes template

        1023f4
        translation directory structure, duplicates it for each release number
        1023f4
        specified in the <samp>`--filter='release-number''</samp> argument and
        1023f4
        produces release-specific directories. As part of template translation
        1023f4
        duplication process take place, the centos-art script adds
        1023f4
        release-specific replacement commands for each specific translation
        1023f4
        file inside release-specific directories. As result, specific
        1023f4
        translation files, inside release-specific directories, contain
        1023f4
        template translation replacement commands plus,
        1023f4
        release-specific replacement commands.

        1023f4
        info

        Note

        Release-specific replacement commands are standardized

        1023f4
        inside centos-art script using predifined release
        1023f4
        translation markers. Release translation markers are described in the
        1023f4
        translation marker section
        1023f4
        (see Translation Markers).

        3.34.3 Usage

        c12cdc
        1023f4
        1023f4
        <samp>`centos-art render --entry='path/to/dir''</samp>
        1023f4
        1023f4

        When <samp>`path/to/dir'</samp> refers one directory under

        1023f4
        <samp>`trunk/Translations'</samp>, this command orverwrites available
        1023f4
        translation files using translation templates.
        1023f4

        1023f4
        1023f4
        <samp>`centos-art render --entry='path/to/dir' --filter='pattern''</samp>
        1023f4
        1023f4

        When <samp>`path/to/dir'</samp> refers one directory under

        1023f4
        <tt>`trunk/Translations'</tt>, this command renders release-specific
        1023f4
        translation files as you specify in the <samp>`--filter='pattern''</samp>
        1023f4
        argument. In this case, <samp>`pattern'</samp> not a regular expression but an
        1023f4
        number (e.g., <samp>`5'</samp>) or a list of numbers separated by commas
        1023f4
        (e.g., <samp>`3,4,5,6'</samp>) that specify the major release of CentOS
        1023f4
        distribution you want to render translations for.
