Creating Message Files
This feature is only supported in the Ultimate edition.
The following is only valid when Python Plugin is installed and enabled!
IntelliJ IDEA stores locales in the language-related subdirectories of the locale directory. For creating locales, run the makemessages task of the manage.py utility.
To create a message file
- On the main menu, choose , or press N/A.
- In the manage.py task window, enter
makemessages, type--locale <locale name >and press Enter.
Repeat this step for each locale you want to create.
If there are strings marked for localization, IntelliJ IDEA will produce a directory and
django.pofile for each locale:
If there are no such strings, only an empty directory structure is created.
