Traduki

Export/import translations of nodes, xliff files and entities in Neos CMS and Flow applications

Configuration Settings

• sourceLanguage the default language all the translations are based on
• export.directory the directory all exports are written to, default: 'Data/Traduki/Export/'
• export.workspace the workspace to read the nodes fron, default: 'live'
• export.documentTypeFilterPresets filter options for document nodes to be exported, default: 'Neos.Neos:Document'
• export.contentTypeFilterPresets filter options for content nodes to de exported, default: '!Neos.Neos:Document'
• import.directory the directory all imports will be read from, default: 'Data/Traduki/Import/'

Export/Import

For each type there is a command controller with an export and an import action.

Translation strings will be exported into a custom XML structure (for nodes) or xliff files (for Xliff and entities), can be sent to translation agencies to translate and the translated strings can be imported back afterwards.

Translate Nodes

Compared to Flownative.Neos.Trados on which this is based on, this export has nested content nodes that respect the structure and order in which they appear in a document. To have the context makes it easier for translators to translate the content.

nodes:export

USAGE:
  ./flow nodes:export [<options>] <starting point>

ARGUMENTS:
  --starting-point     The node with which to start the export: as identifier
                       or the path relative to the site node.

OPTIONS:
  --source-language    overwrite the default source language to use as base for
                       the export.
  --target-language    The target language for the translation
  --filename           Path and filename to the XML file to create. default
                       will be generated from the starting point node label
  --modified-after     export only nodes modified after this date
  --ignore-hidden      do not export hidden nodes, default: true
  --document-filter    preset key of the document type filter, default: default
  --content-filter     preset key of the content type filter, default: default

DESCRIPTION:
  This command exports a specific node tree including all content into an XML format.
  To filter Document or Content nodeTypes to be exported, use the settings
  - Kleisli.Traduki.export.documentTypeFilterPreset
  - Kleisli.Traduki.export.contentTypeFilterPreset
  and add your own filter presets

Skip node properties for translation

By default all node properties of type string will be included in the export. To skip certain properties they can be defined in the nodeType options. e.g.

'Neos.Neos:Document':
  options:
    Kleisli:
      Traduki:
        properties:
          twitterCardType:
            skip: true

nodes:import

USAGE:
  ./flow nodes:import [<options>] <filename>

ARGUMENTS:
  --filename           Path and filename to the XML file to import.

OPTIONS:
  --target-language    The target language for the translation, optional if
                       included in XML.
  --workspace          A workspace to import into, optional but recommended

DESCRIPTION:
  This command imports translated content from XML.

Translate Xliff

xliff:export

Update and Merge all xliff files of a package into one file

USAGE:
  ./flow xliff:export <target language> <package key>

ARGUMENTS:
  --target-language    The target language code for the translation. e.g. fr
  --package-key        e.g. Vendor.Package

DESCRIPTION:
  The source language is taken from the setting Kleisli.Traduki.sourceLanguage

xliff:import

Split and import a merged xliff files of a package

USAGE:
  ./flow xliff:import [<options>]

OPTIONS:
  --sub-folder-path    restrict importing to a subfolder path within the
                       Xliff-Import directory
  --file-name-suffix   e.g. "Vendor.Package.xlf", default value is ".xlf

DESCRIPTION:
  By default, all the files in the folder "Xliff" in the configured import directory are imported.
  This can be restricted to a single targetLanguage and package

xliff:update

Create new and update already existing xliff files in a target language to track changed source language labels

USAGE:
  ./flow xliff:update [<options>]

OPTIONS:
  --target-language    The target language for the translation. e.g. fr
  --package-key        e.g. Vendor.Package

DESCRIPTION:
  New translation units in the source language, are added to the target language xliff with state="new" 
  and translation units where the content of the source language changed are attributed with state="needs-translation"

Translate Entities

entities:export

USAGE:
  ./flow entities:export <target language> <model class>

ARGUMENTS:
  --target-language    The target language for the translation. e.g. fr
  --model-class        'Vendor\Package\Domain\Model\MyModel'

DESCRIPTION:
  Exports properties annotated with Gedmo\Mapping\Annotation\Translatable into a xliff file.
  The default/source language is taken from the setting Kleisli.Traduki.sourceLanguage

entities:import

USAGE:
  ./flow entities:import [<options>]

OPTIONS:
  --target-language    The target language for the translation. e.g. fr
  --model-class        'Vendor\Package\Domain\Model\MyModel'

DESCRIPTION:
  Imports properties annotated with Gedmo\Mapping\Annotation\Translatable from a translated
  xliff file, that was previously exported by entities:export.
  
  By default, all the files in the subfolder "Entities" in the import directory are imported. This
  can be restricted to a single targetLanguage and Model

Kudos

Node exporter and importer are based on Flownative.Neos.Trados. Originally I planned to do a PR to this package, but when I realised it will end in a major rewrite, I decided to publish it as a new package and extend it with xliff and entity handling.
