For standard production setups, that’s an OS-level setting. The easiest way to
do it on CentOS 7 to use the ‘system-config-language’ tool. You may need to
install it; just do (from a root shell):
yum install system-config-language
However, if you’re just hacking Rivendell and don’t want to change the whole
system over to a different locale, you can do it by setting the ‘LANG’
environmental variable to the desired language. For example, to switch to
Español, you could open a shell (non-root) and do something like:
export LANG=es_ES.UTF-8
Rivendell modules run from that same session will then attempt to use the
appropriate translation.
While we’re on this subject: the translations currently in Rivendell are
extremely long in the tooth, with the last updates done way back in the v2.x
era, so I suspect that coverage for any given language is quite ragged. As we
converge towards a production v4.x release, we’ll shortly be in a position to
start soliciting volunteers to update translations. Stay tuned!
Cheers!
