Projects configuration

We use two i18n approaches in our applications: gettext and JSON based translations.

Every project, no matter which i18n approach it uses, can be configured with the following options:

• languages - (string) a list of languages separated by space
• edit_jobs - (boolean) if truthy, additional "Edit" service will be ordered for each job

Configuration options required by gettext projects:

• domains - (string) a list of gettext domains separated by space
• <domain-name> - (string) an absolute directory path where .po file for given domain is stored

Configuration option required by projects with JSON i18n approach:

• locale_dir - (string) an absolute directory path where JSON files with source strings and translations are stored
