Locale Plugin for Jenkins

This plugin controls the language of Jenkins.

Normally, Jenkins honors the browser’s language preference if a translation is available for the preferred language
and uses the system default locale for messages during a build.
This plugin allows you to:

• override the system default locale to the language of your choice
• ignore browser’s language preference completely
• allow users to use their own language preferences

This feature is sometimes convenient for multilingual environment.

Usage

Under Manage Jenkins > Appearance there should be a “Locale” section.

Here you can enter the Default Language: this should be a language code
or locale code like “fr” (for French), or “de_AT” (German, in Austria).

The system will use this value, for example, for messages that are printed
to the log during a build (assuming that the Jenkins features and plugins that
you’re using have been translated into the specified language).

To additionally force this language on all users, overriding their browser language,
you can check the “Ignore browser preference and force this language to all users” option.

To enable users to use their own language preference, overriding their browser language,
you can check the “Allow all users to use their own language preference” option.

JCasC configuration example:

appearance:
  locale:
    systemLocale: en
    ignoreAcceptLanguage: true
    allowUserPreferences: false
