NVDA - cldr

The CLDR repository is quite large, and takes a long time to clone. NVDA only requires ~14MB of data from CLDR, and it is changed infrequently. Rather than pull the whole CLDR repository into NVDA, this repo us used to create the source/locale/*/cldr.dic files, from CLDR data.

Requirements

• Python 3.11-32
  • Intention: Match the NVDA python version, reduce tooling complexity for developers.

Run

1. Ensure the output directory is empty or non-existent.
2. py -3.7-32 build.py

Output

See out\ directory.

• locale directory contains all the generated cldr dictionaries.
• cldrLocaleDicts.zip is the locale directory zipped.

The contents of the cldrLocaleDicts.zip should be extracted to the NVDA source/locale/ directory. Example path after extraction: source\locale\en\cldr.dic.

Logging

Default log level in INFO. Change the level in build.py to DEBUG for higher verbosity.
