Re: [translate-pootle] Is possible Update languages from command line?
Op Vrydag 2008-02-29 skryf Normando Hall: I need to update all languages from templates through command line because I have implemented svn access only for templates. So, when new or modify template is added or commit to repository, I have a cron script to make an update from svn to pootle templates dir. Then I want to parse templates over all languages automatically (may be cron) through command line. Regards, Normando Hallo Normando You can easily script updating with either msgmerge from the gettext package, or with pot2po from the Translate Toolkit: http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/toolkit/pot2po In this step you can also use a translation memory (compendium of old translations) to update the files if you want. Pot2po will be slower (especially if you don't have the python-Levenshtein package installed), but gives slightly more useful fuzzy matches (in my opinion). Either should be fine. You might want to write to temporary output to make sure that it completed without error before you overwrite the existing file in Pootle's directory tree. Or you might want to review what changed before you put it live. This allows all of that. As long as the file existed there before, it shouldn't be necessary to restart the server, as Pootle should detect that the file on the file system is newer when it has been overwritten. It might be good if your Pootle users know that you are doing this, in case they are working offline, or using assignments. Mostly I don't think it should be a big issue, though.

Re: [translate-pootle] Make commits from command line
Quoting Normando Hall ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Hello again :) I want to make commit from command line. I can make commits through cron scripts, but I want through pootle, because add a message about translator and translated strings. Is this possible? As far as I know, no. This is something we also need for Debian's experimental Pootle server. If someone is able to work on this, that would rock. The same stands for Pootle updates from the command-line which you mentioend earlier. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [translate-pootle] Make commits from command line
Hi Normando, I want to make commit from command line. I can make commits through cron scripts, but I want through pootle, because add a message about translator and translated strings. I am not sure, if you want to do the commits via command line or via pootle. For command line: make sure, that you use the appropriate system user (e.g. pootle) to avoid trouble with file permissions and ownership. For commits via the pootle web interface take a look at: http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/pootle/version_control http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/pootle/permissions I hope this helps, Lars - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Well, the Last-Translator header field helps a little bit, and if people commit manually, that can also help. In XLIFF files, you might be able to store all sorts of interesting meta information (like who, when, etc.), but the tool support is not really there yet. I guess the support provided by Pootle is really meant for cases where we want to give VCS access to more people that might not know or care about the differences. And of course, no extra accounts necessary, as the Pootle accounts are used. It is not ideal for everything, but solves some problems for some people. People who want to script commits from the server / cron can still do that, and it won't interfere with Pootle as long as it was working in the first place (non-interactive authentication).
