How to use

Depending on entity that must be translated(group, dataset, organization), one must update corresponding metadata schema. Following fields must be added:

• organization/group
  • title_<locale> (ex., title_ar)
  • description_<locale> (ex., description_ar)
• dataset
  • title_<locale> (ex., title_ar)
  • notes_<locale> (ex., notes_ar)

If you are using ckanext-scheming, define field like this::

...
{
    "field_name": "title_ar",
    "label": "Arabic Name",
    "validators": "if_empty_same_as(title)"
},
...

Or you can define custom fields using low-level IDatasetForm/IGroupForm/IOrganizationForm.

If none of above is possible, provide an extra field via CKAN extras(key/value pairs of fields in the very bottom of dataset/group/organization form).
