A set of Python scripts to help deal with the complexities of managing localization in Xcode

Note

At the moment, these scripts are very much a work in progress! And please, make sure you have your Xcode project under source control, as the --set command will modify files inside of it directly.

Installation

Pre-requisites

Make sure you have a valid Google cloud account somewhere if you want to use the --set functionality. Also, make sure you have virtualenv installed and it is up to date.

Commands

$ git clone https://github.com/pmalmgren/pylocalizer.git
$ cd pylocalizer
$ virtualenv --prompt="(pylocalizer)" --python=python3 ve
$ . ve/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Inspecting a project

This command will get the key for all languages in an Xcode project:

(pylocalizer) $ python pylocalizer/add_localized_string.py [path to Xcode project] --get MyKey

This command will translate the key for all languages in an Xcode project:

(pylocalizer) $ python pylocalizer/add_localized_string.py [path to Xcode project] --set MyKey="My value"
