Auto Localize

Machine-translates an application, by generating a config/locales/<target-language>.yml file from a config/locales/<source-language>.yml using Bing to translate strings from the source file automatically. Existing translations are not overwritten by default.

Installation

Add the auto_localize gem to your Gemfile:

gem "auto_localize"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install auto_localize

Usage

After the gem is installed, you'll have a new rake task available. You need to pass the following arguments as environment variables:

• BING_ID: Bing id to be used (mandatory)
• BING_SECRET: Bing secret to be used (mandatory)
• TARGET_LANGUAGES: List of languages to which the source file should be translated, separated by commas (mandatory)
• SOURCE_LANGUAGE: Which source language to be used - assumes that a file at config/locales/<source>.yml exists (defaults to "en")
• FORCE: If true, existing translations are overwritten (defaults to FALSE)

Example:

BING_ID=yourbingid BING_SECRET=yourbingsecret SOURCE_LANGUAGE=en TARGET_LANGUAGES=pt,es FORCE=true rake auto_localize
