About the Resource Bundle Translation Site category

Resource Bundle Translation Site: The main use case for this application is to enable development team to concentrate on development with single language while automatically communicating new localization needs to designated translators via email and offering web user interface for the actual translation process.

Resource bundle translation site can be applied as a standalone translation web application to translate Java resource bundles from source control. Easiest way to do this is to use translation-site-jetty Java console application which runs the web application inside embedded jetty.

The resource bundles in file system are synchronized to JPA database and back. Pre and post synchronization shell command hooks can be used to pull and push files to source control systems or transfer them to remote servers.

This add on provides classes with can be used to allow real time translation of Vaadin application in development or test environment. In this scenario Vaadin application being translated has to support real time reloading of resource bundles from file system.

Features:

  • Configurable synchronization period from file system to database.
  • Pre and post synchronization shell command hooks.
  • Automated emails to translators when new keys are added.
  • Master language
    – Not modified by the site but written traditionally as part of web site development
    – Other keys are synchronized with master language key set.
  • Comments in generated resource bundles containing key modified time and author.
