First, fork the Transformers repo by clicking the Fork button in the top-right corner. +2. Clone your fork to your local machine for editing with the following command: -**🍴 Fork the repository** + ```bash + git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/transformers.git + ``` + + Replace `YOUR-USERNAME` with your GitHub username. -First, you'll need to [fork the Transformers repo](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo). You can do this by clicking on the **Fork** button on the top-right corner of this repo's page. +## Copy-paste the English version with a new language code -Once you've forked the repo, you'll want to get the files on your local machine for editing. You can do that by cloning the fork with Git as follows: +The documentation files are organized in the following directory: -```bash -git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/transformers.git -``` +- **docs/source**: This contains all documentation materials organized by language. -**📋 Copy-paste the English version with a new language code** +To copy the English version to your new language directory: -The documentation files are in one leading directory: +1.

Run the following command: -Here, `LANG-ID` should be one of the ISO 639-1 or ISO 639-2 language codes -- see [here](https://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php) for a handy table. + ```bash + cp -r source/en source/LANG-ID + ``` -**✍️ Start translating** + Replace `LANG-ID` with the appropriate ISO 639-1 or ISO 639-2 language code (see [this table](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes) for reference). -The fun part comes - translating the text! +## Start translating -The first thing we recommend is translating the part of the `_toctree.yml` file that corresponds to your doc chapter. This file is used to render the table of contents on the website. +Begin translating the text! -> 🙋 If the `_toctree.yml` file doesn't yet exist for your language, you can create one by copy-pasting from the English version and deleting the sections unrelated to your chapter. Just make sure it exists in the `docs/source/LANG-ID/` directory! +1. Start with the `_toctree.yml` file that corresponds to your documentation chapter. This file is essential for rendering the table of contents on the website. -The fields you should add are `local` (with the name of the file containing the translation; e.g. `autoclass_tutorial`), and `title` (with the title of the doc in your language; e.g. `Load pretrained instances with an AutoClass`) -- as a reference, here is the `_toctree.yml` for [English](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/docs/source/en/_toctree.yml): + - If the `_toctree.yml` file doesn’t exist for your language, create one by copying the English version and removing unrelated sections. + - Ensure it is placed in the `docs/source/LANG-ID/` directory. -```yaml -- sections: - - local: pipeline_tutorial # Do not change this! Use the same name for your .md file - title: Pipelines for inference # Translate this! - ... - title: Tutorials # Translate this! -``` + Here’s an example structure for the `_toctree.yml` file: -Once you have translated the `_toctree.yml` file, you can start translating the [MDX](https://mdxjs.com/) files associated with your docs chapter. + ```yaml + - sections: + - local: pipeline_tutorial # Keep this name for your .md file + title: Pipelines for Inference # Translate this + ... + title: Tutorials # Translate this + ``` -> 🙋 If you'd like others to help you with the translation, you should [open an issue](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues) and tag @stevhliu. +2. Once you’ve translated the `_toctree.yml`, move on to translating the associated MDX files. + +## Collaborate and share + +If you'd like assistance with your translation, open an issue and tag `@stevhliu`. Feel free to share resources or glossaries to ensure consistent terminology.
