Information on using Scratch.Translate

[Brackets-Coder]

Hello again,

As of recently I made a commit to #1732 and it failed lint, which didn't previously happen.

I'm assuming that Scratch.Translate is a new requirement? I tried looking at some other extensions and documentation but I can't seem to figure out the "generated l10n code" thing that all the other extensions seem to have. Is this an involved process, or do I just wrap Scratch.Translate() around all of my block's strings?

What do I need to do to get this fixed?

It's been an implicit requirement for a long time. I just decided to put it in code.

You should ignore the "generated l10n code" section; as the comment says it is generated for you.

The most common usage is Scratch.translate("whatever"). You can look through the other extensions to see examples of how it is used https://github.com/search?q=repo%3ATurboWarp%2Fextensions%20Scratch.translate&type=code

You should translate menu text but not value

Also. If you feel that your extension is too complicated for the non-VR-expert volunteer translators to translate, you can use eslint-disable rules to disable the checks instead

Okay, thanks for letting me know. I think though that the block names are generally simple, it's mainly the framework behind them that's more complicated. I wouldn't worry about it too much

what should I do if my menus are structured to where both text and value are the same thing?

menus: {
          toggleVrMode: {
            acceptReporters: true,
            items: ["enter", "exit"],
          },

You make them not the same https://github.com/search?q=repo%3ATurboWarp%2Fextensions%20scratch.translate%20menu%20text%20value&type=code

Okay thanks. That's what I thought.
