Global Configuration Files

Global File Structure

The global configuration files are located in config directory under the L10n Streamlining directory (typically ~jenkins/Lingoport_Data/L10nStreamlining)

<L10nStreamlining>

Most of the global config files contain information that is consistent throughout all groups and projects.

config_attask.properties

Configuration file for creating an AtTask (Workfront) project that corresponds with a prep kit.

Each task under the AtTask project will correspond to one locale in the prep kit. A document listing the changed keys will be uploaded for each task.

A template as well as a URL may be attached to each task if configured.

This file may reside at the project level, group level and global level.

config_custom_tasks.xml

Configuration file for custom tasks.

This file may reside at the project level, group level and global level.

config_email_global.xml

Configuration file for setting up the sender's email credentials for all emails that are sent by the LRM process. In addition, there are configuration settings for when to send out notification emails and whether or not to send out the 'No Files to Prep' email. The default settings are:

• Notification Email will be sent every week. The notification email lists the locales that need to be prep, the files that will be in the next prep kit as well as all the outstanding prep kits.
• Late Prep Kit Email:
  • Email is sent every week if there are late prep kits
  • A prep kit is deemed 'late' if it is more than 7 days late
• 'No Files to Prep' email will be sent out when there is a request to prep a kit but there are no files to prep. If a Jenkins job is created that automatically attempts to prep a kit, then this value should be set so that the email is not sent. Otherwise, the email recipient's inbox may be inundated with 'No Files to Prep' emails.

This file resides only at the global level.

config_file_cherry_picker.xml

This is a template file to be copied under the project config directory if needed.

It helps special situations where files to be sent for translation are far and few and possibly locale dependent. This should be used with care.

config_lingotek_api.properties

This is a configuration file that contains the lingotek api calls and should not be edited. It is used if the L10n vendor for a group/project is set to Lingotek (config_l10n_vendor.properties). Any edits made to this file may cause prep kits to fail when uploading to Lingotek.

This file resides only at the global level.
