TR files for Chinese?

Wednesday 11 May 2011 8:30:19 am

I've not been able to find an elegant way to display URLs in Chinese.

Deactivating URL translation or using urlalias_iri transform group doesn't really help.

I'm wondering if it's possible to use the translation file for Chinese that is in Derick Rethans's Transliteration extension (http://pecl.php.net/package/translit).

The file is here:
http://svn.php.net/viewvc/pecl/translit/trunk/data/han_transliterate.tr?view=markup

If we can use this file to transform URL, what else needs to be set up?

Hi!

I've successfully created a .tr file to transliterate the Chinese characters, but I've not been able to make it work properly.

The file /share/transformations/han.tr looks like this (and has 25,326 lines):

han:
U+5416 = "a"
U+5475 = "a"
U+9312 = "a"
U+9515 = "a"
U+963F = "a"
U+55C4 = "a"
U+554A = "a"
U+54C0 = "ai"
...
U+8444 = "zuo"
U+888F = "zuo"
U+9162 = "zuo"
U+963C = "zuo"

I set up /setting/override/transform.ini.append.php:

[Transformation]
Charsets[]=utf-8;han

[han]
Files[]=han.tr
Extensions[]

When I launch updateniceurls.php,everything looks fine, but my URL are still using the node_* pattern.

Did I miss something? Is it OK to send a pull request to the github repo even if it's not completely working?
