# Maintaining Translations
## Setup
Clone the [translations](https://github.com/peeringdb/translations) repository in the location that
contains your `peeringdb` directory.
Clone the [django-peeringdb](https://github.com/peeringdb/django-peeringdb) repository in the location that
contains your `peeringdb` directory.
```sh
git clone git@github.com:peeringdb/translations
git clone git@github.com:peeringdb/django-peeringdb
```
Running `ls` should show something like this:
```sh
django-peeringdb
peeringdb
translations
```
Edit the peeringdb docker compose config to make the translation files and django-peeringdb source available.
```sh
cd peeringdb
vim Ctl/dev/docker-compose.sh
```
Uncomment the mount point for `locale` under `volumes`
```
volumes:
...
- ../../../translations/locale:/srv/www.peeringdb.com/locale:Z
- ../../../django-peeringdb/src/django_peeringdb:/srv/www.peeringdb.com/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django_peeringdb:Z
```
## Generate a new locale
Call makemessages and pass the locale to the `-l` option. In this example we are passing `de` for German.
```
Ctl/dev/run.sh /bin/sh
. venv/bin/activate
django-admin makemessages -l de -s --no-wrap -i venv
django-admin makemessages -d djangojs -l de -s --no-wrap -i venv
```
## Updating messages in existing locale
This will add any new messages to all locale files. In other words, if there have been new features added, one wants to call this to make sure the messages exist in gettext so they can be translated.
```
Ctl/dev/run.sh /bin/sh
. venv/bin/activate
django-admin makemessages -a -s --no-wrap -i venv
django-admin makemessages -d djangojs -a -s --no-wrap -i venv
```
## Compile messages
Once translation files are ready, one needs to compile them so django can use them.
```
Ctl/dev/run.sh /bin/sh
. venv/bin/activate
django-admin compilemessages -i venv
```
