## JavaScript Translations
SilverStripe also supports translating strings in JavaScript (see [i18n](/topics/i18n)),
but there's a conversion step involved in order to get those translations syncing with Transifex.
Our translation files stored in `mymodule/javascript/lang/*.js` call `ss.i18n.addDictionary()` to add files.
ss.i18n.addDictionary('de', {"MyNamespace.MyKey": "My Translation"});
But Transifex only accepts structured formats like JSON.
{"MyNamespace.MyKey": "My Translation"}
First of all, you need to create those source files in JSON, and store them in `mymodule/javascript/lang/src/*.js`. In your `.tx/config` you can configure this path as a separate master location.
[main]
host = https://www.transifex.com
[silverstripe-mymodule.master]
file_filter = lang/<lang>.yml
source_file = lang/en.yml
source_lang = en
type = YML
[silverstripe-mymodule.master-js]
file_filter = javascript/lang/src/<lang>.js
source_file = javascript/lang/src/en.js
source_lang = en
type = KEYVALUEJSON
Now you can upload the source files via a normal `tx push`. Once translations come in,
you need to convert the source files back into the JS files SilverStripe can actually read.
This requires an installation of our [buildtools](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-buildtools).
tx pull
(cd .. && phing -Dmodule=mymodule translation-generate-javascript-for-module)
git add javascript/lang/*
