simple_loco plugin

This project is a fastlane plugin. To get started with fastlane-plugin-simple_loco, add it to your project by running:

fastlane add_plugin simple_loco

A simple implementation for exporting translations from Loco.

This plugin is heavily inspired by https://github.com/JohnPaulConcierge/fastlane-plugin-loco, but some functionality has been removed and added. This plugin acts primarily as a wrapper implementation around the export single locale API call of Loco (see https://localise.biz/api/docs/export/exportlocale for full details).

There is advanced support for the following platforms:

• Android
• iOS
• Xamarin (with resx resource files)
• Flutter (with arb files)

For the platforms above, an extra adapter is available to create the correct folder and files needed to use the translations.

For other platforms, a default implementation is provided (translation files will be saved like <provided folder>/<provided file name>.<locale>.<extension>). If a custom file name is provided, then the name of the file for the default locale won't contain the locale. If no custom file name is provided, then the locale will be used instead.

This plugin contains a single action simple_loco.

This action uses a configuration file to generate the correct API call.

The config file specifies the following properties:

• locales: List of locales to fetch
• directory: Directory to move translation files to
• platform: Platform for the translations: choice between:
  • android
  • ios
  • xamarin
  • flutter
  • custom
• key: Key of the Loco project
• Optional parameters:
  • format
  • filter
  • index
  • source
  • namespace
  • fallback
  • order
  • status
  • printf
  • charset
  • breaks
  • no_comments
  • no_folding

For an explanation of the optional parameters, please see the official API reference: https://localise.biz/api/docs/export/exportlocale

Example of a JSON config file:

{
    "locales" : [
      "en",
      "fr",
      "nl",
      "de"
    ],
    "directory" : "src/main/res",
    "platform" : "android",
    "key" : "<Your key here>",
    "fallback" : "en",
    "order": "id",
    "filter": ["android"]
}

Or in YAML:

locales:
  - en
  - fr
  - nl
  - de
directory: src/main/res
platform: custom
key: <your key here>
fallback: en
order: id
custom_extension: .xml
custom_file_name: strings

To run both the tests, and code style validation, run

rake

To automatically fix many of the styling issues, use

rubocop -a
