Introduction | ||
============ | ||
|
||
Zanata Python client is a client that communicates with a Zanata server | ||
[http://zanata.org/] to push text for translation (from publican documents or | ||
gettext-based software), and pull translated text back for inclusion in | ||
software or documentation builds. | ||
|
||
It also provides support for creating projects/versions in Zanata and | ||
retrieving information about projects. | ||
|
||
Install | ||
======= | ||
|
||
You can install the zanata-python-client with:: | ||
|
||
$ yum install zanata-python-client | ||
|
||
To install from source:: | ||
|
||
$ make install | ||
|
||
Compiling | ||
========= | ||
|
||
To run pylint against the source code:: | ||
|
||
$ make lint | ||
|
||
To do unit tests:: | ||
|
||
$ make test | ||
|
||
.. Note:: To run the unit tests, you will also need minimock: ``yum install python-minimock`` | ||
|
||
Configuration | ||
============= | ||
|
||
After you install the zanata-python-client, you need to create a configuration | ||
file in $HOME/.config/zanata.ini that contains user-specific configuration. For | ||
infomation on how to create a configuration file, go to: | ||
http://zanata.org/help/cli-configuration/ | ||
|
||
For each project, you need to write a project-specific configuration file named | ||
zanata.xml. An example can be found here: | ||
https://github.com/zanata/zanata-server/blob/master/zanata.xml | ||
|
||
You can also override the URL of the server with the command line option | ||
``--url``. Use ``--username`` for user name and ``--apikey`` for api key of | ||
user. | ||
|
||
Command List | ||
============ | ||
|
||
Name: ``/usr/bin/zanata`` | ||
|
||
If you type ``zanata`` in the shell, it will give you basic information for | ||
working with a Zanata server. You can use ``zanata --help`` to get more help. | ||
|
||
Basic Usage: ``zanata COMMAND [ARGS] [COMMAND_OPTIONS]`` | ||
|
||
Listing/Querying for Projects:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata list --url | ||
|
||
Creating a project:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata project create {project_id} --project-name={project_name} --project-desc={project_description} | ||
|
||
Create a Project Version:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata version create {version_id} --project-id={project_id} --version-name={version_name} --version-desc={version_description} | ||
|
||
Query for information of a project:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata project info --project-id={project_id} | ||
|
||
Query for information of a project iteration:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata version info --project-id={project_id} --project-version={version_id} | ||
|
||
Publishing Templates (source text) to Zanata. | ||
|
||
If you want to push only one template file to zanata server, you can use | ||
command below:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican push --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} [documentName..] | ||
|
||
If documentName is omitted, the ``publican push`` command will push all the | ||
template files under the template folder to the Zanata server. You can specify | ||
the path of template folder by command line option ``--srcdir``. If you don't | ||
provide such info, the command will try to locate template folder in current | ||
path:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican push --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} --srcdir={template_folder} | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican push --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} | ||
|
||
Or if you run command below in a folder containing a template folder with | ||
zanata.xml in it, it will load all the info from configuration file:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican push | ||
|
||
You can use the ``import-po`` option and the related translation (po files) | ||
will be pushed to zanata server at the same time. | ||
|
||
You need to specify the parent folder that contains all the translations by the | ||
``transDir`` option. By default it will read the language info from the project | ||
configuration file (zanata.xml), or you can specify the language that you want | ||
to push to the zanata server by ``lang`` option:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican push --import-po --trandir={path of parent folder contains locale folders} --lang=lang1,lang2,.. | ||
|
||
By default, the server will try to find closest equivalent translation from | ||
other versions in the same project and copy to version you specified. You can | ||
set no-copytrans to disable that function:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican push --no-copytrans | ||
|
||
Retrieving translated Documents from zanata. | ||
|
||
If you want to retrieve only one file from zanata server, you can use:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican pull --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} [documentName..] | ||
|
||
Without indicating the documentName, this command will pull all the documents | ||
of a project version on zanata server to a local output folder. It reads the | ||
language info from project configuration file (zanata.xml), or you can specify | ||
the language that you want to pull from the zanata server by the ``--lang`` | ||
option:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican pull --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} --lang=lang1,lang2,.. --dstdir={output_folder} | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican pull --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} --lang=lang1,lang2,.. | ||
|
||
You can also simply run this in a folder containing zanata.xml and it will load | ||
all the info from configuration file:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata publican pull | ||
|
||
Push and pull software project with Zanata | ||
|
||
If you want to only push a software project file to the zanata server:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata po push --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} [documentName..] | ||
|
||
Without giving the documentName, ``po push`` will push all source files of the | ||
project under the po folder to zanata server. You can specify the path of the | ||
po folder with ``--srcdir={po_folder_name}``, if you don't provide such info, | ||
the command will try to locate the po folder in the current path:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata po push --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} --srcdir={po_folder} | ||
|
||
$ zanata po push --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} | ||
|
||
Or you can simply run this in a folder containing a po folder with zanata.xml | ||
and it will load all the info from configuration file:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata po push | ||
|
||
You can use the ``--import-po`` option and related translations will be pushed | ||
to the zanata server at the same time. You can specify the parent folder that | ||
contains all the translations with | ||
``--transdir={path_of_parent_folder_contains_translation_files}``, or the | ||
client will use the path of po folder as the 'transdir'. By default, command | ||
will read the language info from project configuration file (zanata.xml), or | ||
you can specify the language that you want to push to the zanata server by | ||
'lang' option:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata po push --import-po --trandir={path of parent folder contains translation files, such as zh-CN.po} --lang=lang1,lang2,.. | ||
|
||
By default the server will try to find closest equivalent translation from oter | ||
versions in the same project and copy to the version you specified. you can set | ||
``--no-copytrans`` option to disable this function:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata po push --no-copytrans | ||
|
||
Retrieving Software project translation from zanata | ||
|
||
If you want to retrieve the software translation from the zanata server, you | ||
can use the command below:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata po pull --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} [softwareName..] | ||
|
||
Without indicating the software name, this command will pull all the | ||
translations of a project version on the zanata server to a local output | ||
folder. It reads the language info from project configuration file | ||
(zanata.xml), or you can specify the language that you want to pull from the | ||
zanata server by the ``--lang`` option:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata po pull --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} --lang=lang1,lang2,.. --dstdir={output_folder} | ||
|
||
$ zanata po pull --project-id={project_id} --project-version={iteration_id} --lang=lang1,lang2,.. | ||
|
||
you can also simply run this in a folder containing a zanata.xml file and it | ||
will load all the info from the configuration file:: | ||
|
||
$ zanata po pull | ||
