− | 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. |
||
− | * '''dashboard-url''' - Dashboard URL used as the link destination for the email Log In button |
||
− | * '''notify-changes-email-interval''' - By default, the ''Notification'' email may be sent every day. Since the project's Jenkins Notification job is only run once a week, this email will only be set out once a week. |
||
− | * '''late-kits-email-interval''' - By default, the ''Late Prep Kits'' email may be sent every day depending on the number of days late. Since the project's Jenkins Notification job is only run once a week, this email will be sent out once a week. |
||
− | * '''number-days-late''' - By default, a prep kit is deemed late if it is 7 days late. |
||
− | * '''send-no-files-to-prep-email''' - By default, the ''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 to ''0'' so that the email is not sent. Otherwise, the email recipient's inbox may be inundated with 'No Files to Prep' emails. |

+ | ==== No Expansion with end character symbols Configuration Example ==== |
||
− | === Encrypted Password === |
||
− | The <code><sender-password></code> can be configured with the <code>encrypted</code> attribute set to true, as in |

− | == Java Options for sending emails == |
||
− | It may be necessary to explicitly set the email port and/or STARTTLS flag rather than rely on the default mail server values. In addition, the email session debug mode can be enabled. |
||
− | |||
− | There are 3 email settings that may be set through java options: |
||
− | * Email Server Port |
||
− | * SMTP STARTTLS enabled |
||
− | * Email Session Debug mode enabled |
||
− | |||
− | ==== Email Protocol Port Number ==== |
||
− | The expected java option for explicitly setting the protocol port number is: |
||
− | * mail.smtp.port |
||
− | |||
− | Linux example if setting java options within a shell session. |
||
− | |||
− | :: <span style="background-color: #eaecf0;>export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dmail.smtp.port=25'</span> |
||
− | |||
− | === Enable/Disable STARTTLS === |
||
− | The expected java option for explicitly enabling/disabling STARTTLS is: |
||
− | * mail.smtp.starttls.enable |
||
− | |||
− | Linux example if setting java options within a shell session. |
||
− | |||
− | :: <span style="background-color: #eaecf0;>export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dmail.smtp.starttls.enable=true'</span> |
||
− | |||
− | STARTTLS is automatically enabled for the SMTPS protocol. |
||
− | |||
− | === Enable Email Session Debug mode === |
||
− | The expected java option for explicitly enabling/disabling the email session debug mode is: |
||
− | * mail.debug.mode |
||
− | |||
− | Linux example if setting java options within a shell session. |
||
− | |||
− | :: <span style="background-color: #eaecf0;>export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dmail.debug.mode=true'</span> |
||
− | |||
− | == Send Email Command == |
||
− | The ''send email command'' is used to test sending an email using your mail server credentials. Before starting, verify with your IT department the mail server credentials otherwise errors will occur. |
||
− | |||
− | The ''send email command'' is accessed through the lpcommon.jar file and is located in the <code>lib</code> folder (i.e. ../lrm-server-x.x/lib). This command is used to test the configured mail server. Before running this command, you may want to [[Sending_Emails#Enable_Email_Session_Debug_mode |enable the email session debug mode]]. |
||
− | |||
− | In order to run the send email <code>-sse</code> or <code>--send-smtp-email</code> command, you must specify an existing location for the error log. |
||
− | |||
− | In addition to the log file, there are 5 other required fields. |
||
− | * '''SMTP Host''' denoted by option <code>-sh</code> or <code>--smtp-host</code> |
||
− | * '''Senders email address''' denoted by option <code>-es</code> or <code>--email-sender</code> |
||
− | * '''Email Subject''' denoted by option <code>-subj</code> or <code>--subject</code> |
||
− | * '''Email Message''' denoted by option <code>-msg</code> or <code>--message</code> |
||
− | * '''Email Recipients''' denoted by option <code>-r</code> or <code>--recipients</code> |
||
− | |||
− | === Sending Email with SMTP protocol and no authorization === |
||
− | To test sending an email using the SMTP protocol with no authorization run the following command: |
||
− | :: <span style="background-color: #eaecf0;>java -jar lpcommon.jar -sse -lf /var/lib/jenkins/test/error.log -sh smtp.gmail.com -es myemail@mycompany.com -subj test -msg "This is a test" -r anotheremail@email.com </span> |
||
− | |||
− | In looking at the console log you should see the following: |
||
− | * Email protocol is `smtp` (which is the default) |
||
− | * Authorization `mail.smtp.auth` is set to `false` |
||
− | |||
− | If errors occurs then you'll need to change your email send options. For error examples see [[Sending_Emails#Error_Messages|Email Error Messages]]. |
||
− | |||
− | === Sending Email with SMTP authorization === |
||
− | To test sending an email using the SMTP protocol with SMTP authorization run the following command: |
||
− | :: <span style="background-color: #eaecf0;>java -jar lpcommon.jar -sse -lf /var/lib/jenkins/test/error.log -sh smtp.gmail.com '''-sa mail.smtp.auth''' -es myemail@mycompany.com -subj test -msg "This is a test" -r anotheremail@email.com </span> |
||
− | |||
− | In looking at the console log you should see the following: |
||
− | * Email protocol is `smtp` |
||
− | * Authorization `mail.smtp.auth` is set to `true` |
||
− | |||
− | If errors occurs then you'll need to change your email send options. For error examples see [[Sending_Emails#Error_Messages|Email Error Messages]]. |
||
− | |||
− | === Sending Email with SMTPS protocol === |
||
− | To test sending an email using the SMTP protocol with SMTP authorization run the following command: |
||
− | :: <span style="background-color: #eaecf0;>java -jar lpcommon.jar -sse -lf /var/lib/jenkins/test/error.log -sh smtp.gmail.com '''-sa mail.smtps.auth''' -es myemail@mycompany.com -subj test -msg "This is a test" -r anotheremail@email.com '''-ep mypassword''' </span> |
||
− | |||
− | In looking at the console log you should see the following: |
||
− | * Email protocol is `smtp` (which is the default) |
||
− | * Authorization `mail.smtp.auth` is set to `false` |
||
− | |||
− | If errors occurs then you'll need to change your email send options. For error examples see [[Sending_Emails#Error_Messages|Email Error Messages]]. |
||
− | |||
− | === Error Messages === |
||
− | The first step in trouble shooting any email messages is to verify, with your IT department, the mail server credentials. |
||
− | |||
− | If you're unable to send an email successfully then you may want to enable the debug mode for the email session. This will provide additional information regarding the progress of the session. Set the debug mode through [[Sending_Emails#Enable_Email_Session_Debug_mode|java options]]. |
||
− | After enabling the debug mode, the error messages should provide explicit information regarding the reason for the failure. There are a few error messages that may not be so obvious. These are: |
||
− | * Connection is not successful due to invalid port number: |
||
− | :: The default port number will be used when setting up the connection. If you're unable to change the default port number then you'll need to explicitly set it via [[Sending_Emails#Email_Protocol_Port_Number|java options]]. |
||
− | * Must issue a STARTTLS command first. This error indicates that STARTTLS must be enabled. This error occurs when the protocol is SMTP. You can attempt to fix this error by: |
||
− | :: Setting the authorization to SMTPS (connection may require a password) |
||
− | ::: or |
||
− | :: Explicitly setting STARTTLS through the java option [[Sending_Emails#Enable.2FDisable_STARTTLS|mail.smtp.starttls.enable]] and adding the password to the command line (<code>-ep</code>) |

config_pseudo_loc.xml.xml
File config_pseudo_loc.xml
is the configuration file for setting up pseudo localization instructions for LRM resource files. It is located in the global <HOME>/Lingoport_Data/L10nStreamlining/config
folder. If you need different criteria for a group or project then the file can be copied and moved to <HOME>/Lingoport_Data/L10nStreamlining/<group>/config
or <HOME>/Lingoport_Data/L10nStreamlining/<group>/projects/<project>config
respectively.
The config_pseudo_loc.xml file is used when running the --pseudo-loc
command. A pseudo-localized file will be created for each base resource file if the project has a designated pseudo-locale.
There are 2 categories of information contained in the config_pseudo_loc.xml file.
- pseudo localization instructions
- regex pattern for each parser type defining the parameters as well as special characters that should not be pseudo-localized.
Pseudo Localization Instructions
The configuration consists of the following xml elements:
- expansion lengths - defines the expansion percentage based on a strings length. This is useful to test language expansions.
- expansion character - the character that will be used to pad the string in order to simulate string expansion
- expansion end character - characters at the end of expansion. Typically, these are symbols across a range of codepoints in order to ensure that content from the various code pages are supported
- start and end characters - characters at the start and end of the resource string. This is useful to catch resource strings that are concatenated within the code.
- accents - a flag indicating whether the resource string should be accented. This is needed to ensure that all visible user strings are localized.
Typical Configuration Example
<expansion> <lengths> <length max="10" expand-percentage="200"/> <length max="20" expand-percentage="100"/> <length max="30" expand-percentage="80"/> <length max="50" expand-percentage="60"/> <length max="70" expand-percentage="40"/> <length max="" expand-percentage="30"/> </lengths> <expansion-char>-</expansion-char> <!-- П: A Cyrillic character - (for Russian or ‘R’) --> <!-- 國: A common Chinese character (Hanzi, Kanji or Hanja) defined in Unicode BMP or Plane 0 – (for Chinese or ‘C’) --> <!-- カ: A Katakana character (used for Japanese or ‘J’) --> <!-- 내: A Hangul character (for Korean or ‘K’) --> <expansion-end-chars> П國カ내</expansion-end-chars> </expansion> <start-char>[</start-char> <end-char>]</end-char> <accent-chars>1</accent-chars>
Based on this configuration, an example pseudo-localization would be:
Base Resource string: "This is an example using the typical configuration" Pseudo-localized string: "[Ţĥîš îš åñ éẋåɱþļé ûšîñĝ ţĥé ţýþîçåļ çöñƒîĝûŕåţîöñ------------------------П國カ내]"

Based on this configuration, an example pseudo-localization would be:
Base Resource string: "This is an example of no expansion configuration" Pseudo-localized string: "[Ţĥîš îš åñ éẋåɱþļé öƒ ñö éẋþåñšîöñ çöñƒîĝûŕåţîöñ]"

Based on this configuration, an example pseudo-localization would be:
Base Resource string: "This is an example of no expansion configuration" Pseudo-localized string: "[Ţĥîš îš åñ éẋåɱþļé öƒ ñö éẋþåñšîöñ ŵîţĥ éñð çĥåŕåçţéŕš šýɱƀöļš çöñƒîĝûŕåţîöñ П國カ내]"
