i18n:collect-phrases -m can't find many important magento phrases

[kkkonrad]

looks like it can't find:

Order Summary
Review & Payments
Go to Wish List
View and edit cart
You can create an account after checkout

and other checkout phrases so frontend translation is imposible

the same here.. we have translated everything from collected phrases to slovak language (https://connect20.aveo-trade.cz/cat:BuyPackage/details=1/extension=atconnect%2Fmagento2-language-sk_sk ) live preview is here: http://mag2-test.aveo-trade.cz/ and quite many phrases are not translated..

Hi, i did not look it up yet properly, but it seems that also some of the translated texts are not put to the production..

For example "PDF Invoices" translated as "PDF Faktúry" (module,Magento_Sales) is shown in the administration as "PDF Invoices".

But many texts does not even collect.. for example from \vendor\magento\module-ui\view\base\web\templates\grid\actions.html it does not collect text "Select Items"

any update on this issue?

[scholtz]

i suggest someone should set this issue the highest priority because if M2 is not translated correctly to any language it is completly useless in every language besides English.. I dont understand how this could be released as official! :(

It could be a hard-to-fix issue, currently i18n:collect-phrases only extract phrases from given token with the i18n format __('phrase') for php/phtml files, and translate="true" for xml files.
This works well for the most cases, but when the target phrase was not listed in any file with the specific syntax, it will be missed by the command.
A workaround is to maintain an appendix dictionary and execute i18n:pack again in merge mode. Thanks for the fallback mechanism it won't require you to put the phrase in a proper module, so just use any module you like to keep the syntax acceptable. I just use "module,Magento_Backend" since it is coincidence the first one I started.
PS: Override the __ function to output all possible phrases and then do a full test you will get all phrases; subtract the existing ones you get with i18n:collect-phrases, then you will get all missing text quickly.

@scholtz

After installing the language pack did you run the following commands?

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy nl_NL <-- change to your own locale
php bin/magento indexer:reindex
php bin/magento cache:clean
php bin/magento cache:flush

I also run the above commands in a nightly cron

here is my "how to" so far: http://www.vanderboon.net/wiki/Install_Test_Magento_2_Translation

I am running into a new problem.... Static text are show in the correct language, by dynamic are not. Will open new issue for this.
