Hello, I'm the maintainer of the Glabels translation project [1] on Zanata. After porting Glabels from GTK to Qt5, we use *.ts files for translations. The web interface of Zanata can handle such files almost correctly (just a few constraints, such as fake errors when displaying strings that contain mnemonics). But the command line clients doesn't work as expected at all.
I'm using zanata-python-client-1.5.2, available from the Archlinux User Repository [2]. Here's my zanata.xml, generated by "zanata init": <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes'?> <config xmlns="http://zanata.org/namespace/config/";> <url>https://translate.zanata.org</url> <project>Glabels</project> <project-version>master</project-version> <project-type>file</project-type> <src-dir>translations</src-dir> <trans-dir>translations</trans-dir> </config> The files reside in "translations", both source files (glabels_C.ts and templates_C.ts) and translation files (glabels_xxx.ts and templates_xxx.ts, where xxx is the language code). See [3] to have a better view. Updating source files I could do manually, so "push" is not the problem. But when I attempt to fetch the translations using a simple "zanata pull", the client behaves really strange. Although all files are in the same directory, a subdirectory structure will be created in "translations", named by the available locales. The directories then contain the translations for each language found, but as *.po files which are empty! Not really empty in terms of an empty text file, but without any translated strings. This is what I get for the time being, and it is not really much... What I expect actually: The "zanata pull" command should look for translated *.ts files and sync them with the local ones, sorting out the files for languages which are configured in Zanata, but don't have a translation yet. In any case I need *.ts files, not the *.po pendants. Unfortunately, the online docs seem to be outdated. Some of the command line arguments described there don't work, and I haven't found anything about handling *.ts files. Even setting "Project Type" to "ts" seems to be impossible. So I have choosen for "plain text", which is obviously not sufficient in my case. Can anybody help me please?
