See [[Group_Configuration_Files#config_lrm_info.properties|config_lrm_info.properties]] for more info.
  +
*'''Delete project email''' If a project is deleted, an email will be sent to all the ''notify changes'' recipients in the project's [[Project_Configuration_Files#config_email_recipients.xml|''config_email_recipients.xml'']] file
  +
*'''Language tag expansion''' For YAML and JSON files, a 'language tag' is a tag at the top of the file that indicates the language of the file. The language tag can now be defined as a pattern involving the language code, country code and variant. The definition of this pattern is set in the new ''language.tag.pattern'' attribute in ''config_lrm_info.properties''. The default value is 'l' for language-only.

  +
*'''Custom email template''' Ability to send a custom email for a group and project with a specific subject line. See [[LRM_Process_Commands_Reference#Send_Emails|Custom Emails]] for more info.
  +
*'''One Prep Kit package for all locales for XTM''' Added XTM to the list of supported TMSs that take advantage of the sending of files to be translated in one XTM project for all locales if the files are all the same for those locales. See: [[XTM#One_XTM_Project_for_all_Prep_Kit_Locales_or_One_XTM_Project_for_each_Prep_Kit_Locale | XTM One Project for Many Locales]]

  +
*'''One Prep Kit package for all locales''': Rather than 1 prep kit package per locale, if the new ''prep.kit.locales.in.one.project'' flag in the config_lrm_info.properties file is set to '''1''' then there will be one prep kit package for all locales. The prep kit package will contain a text file that contains all the Localyzer target locales for the prep kit as well as text file that contains the Localyzer source locale.

  • Import files name are no longer required to match the source file name (CC 1.1.32) Some TMS vendors rename the translated files by replacing the source file locale with the target file locale. Before Latvia, this would result in a Missing File import error. This restriction has been removed in Lativa.
  • Define a project instrumentation locale (CC 1.1.33) Ability to define a instrumentation locale for a project (<instrumentation-locale></instrumentation-locale>). If an instrumentation locale exists, then the lrm-cli --instrument-resource-files command will create instrumented files where the file name matches the extension's file patterns using the defined instrumentation locale. If no instrumentation locale exists, then the command will create the *_LRMLQA files. When calling from Command Center, if no instrumentation locale is defined then no instrumented files will be created.
  • Turn off the ICU Message Format Validation (CC 1.1.37) By default, LRM will validate ICU Message Formats. The flag is set in the project definition (<icu-validation-error>1</icu-validation-error>). If set to false (0) then ->

  • Plurals (PO and Android) may be different between source and target files (CC 1.2.8) If, on import, a target file is missing a source file plural or has a different plural, then no error is thrown and the file is imported successfully.
  • Ability to instrument YAML files (CC 1.2.8)

Localyzer 9.2 (Korea) release - Fall 2023

  • Integration with XTM Cloud Ability to translate LRM resource files using a XTM Cloud service

Rather than upload a set of prep kit files for each of the LRM locales, only upload 1 set of prep kit files. On import, the set of translated files will be copied over to the other LRM locales that share that vendor locale.
  • Upgrade to MySql8 MySql has been upgraded to MySql8

Localyzer 9.1 (Joetsu) release - Feb 2023

  • Json Arrays Arrays are now supported in Json files within an object. Each array element must be on its own line. See Json Resource Files for more info.

  • Delete project email If a project is deleted, an email will be sent to all the notify changes recipients in the project's config_email_recipients.xml file
  • Language tag expansion For YAML and JSON files, a 'language tag' is a tag at the top of the file that indicates the language of the file. The language tag can now be defined as a pattern involving the language code, country code and variant. The definition of this pattern is set in the new language.tag.pattern attribute in config_lrm_info.properties. The default value is 'l' for language-only. See Json Language Tag, Yaml Language tag, config_lrm_info.properties for more info.
  • Global tag: For YAML and JSON files, there is now a concept of a 'global tag'. This is a tag that is at the top of all the resource files. Unlike the language tag, the global tag is static and the same tag has to be in all resource files. There can be more than 1 global tag defined. The config_lrm_info.properties files contains the new global.tags attribute where multiple tags are separated by a comma. Global tags and language tags can be in the same file. See Json Global Tags, Yaml Global Tags, config_lrm_info.properties for more info.

Localyzer 5.0 release - May 2019

  • InContext Translation: Localyzer supports Lingoport InContext Translation by instrumenting all base resource files. These instrumented files in conjunction with the InContext Server Configuration are used to decorate the prep kit files in order to display the strings that need to be translated.
  • Reordering Translated File Keys: Keys for imported file will be in the same order as the base resource file. Any keys that are in the imported file but not in the base resource file (ghost keys) will be removed. Resource file with the .po type are not reordered.
  • Unique File Names: If the project's definition file or Jenkins automation job has the send-unique-file-names flag set to true, then the files in the prep kits will have been converted to unique file names. The prefix of the file in the prep kit is "LID<hash of absolute path>. The LRM Unique File Names feature allows for duplicate file names to be sent in the same prep kit.
  • Empty files no longer log a critical error: Files with no key/values will no longer report a critical error. The files will be ignored by Localyzer until they contain key/values.
  • Report project_inspect_files.txt: There is a new report, located in L10nStreamlining/<group>/projects/<project>/reports called project_inspect_files.txt.

Using option --download will test the download configuration.

Localyzer 3.4 release - Dec. 2017

  • Create Baseline Command: The create baseline command stores all the base resource files so that modified text can be detected. Before the existence of the create baseline command, a 'baseline' was created when the first prep kit was created. The new create baseline command allows for a 'baseline' to occur without creating a prep kit. The baseline command has the following syntax:
java -jar lrm-cli.jar --create-baseline -pn <project name> -gn <group name>
java -jar lrm-cli.jar -cb -pn <project name> -gn <group name>
  • TranslationStatus.xml report: Flag added indicating whether a locale has outstanding prep kits.

Localyzer 3.3 release - Sept. 2017

  • Generic XML Parser: Localyzer uses the xmlParser.xml file to parse any extensions that have a xml parser type. This file is located in the ../L10nStreamlining/group/projects/project/config folder. The xmlParser.xml directs Localyzer on the location of the keys and values within the xml files as well as whether the key/value is translatable. See XML Support for more details.

Localyzer 2.0 release- Apr 2015

Localyzer 2.0 release allows for seamless integration between source code repositories and translation systems to support continuous globalization. It reduces considerably the manual steps development teams and L10n management may need to handle translation of application resource bundles. The updated framework permits the addition of repository types and of translation systems to match the client's ecosystem.

  • Get source code from the repository
  • Analyze and report the translation status in the Lingoport Dashboard
  • Notify configured recipients of different events via email
  • Determine which files need to be sent for translation and shows in the Lingoport Dashboard
  • Facilitate sending the necessary files to a configured translation system
  • Facilitate receiving translated files
  • Import the files back to the repository
  • Pseudo-localize base resource bundles

Some of the benefits

  • Visibility and clarity of translation for development projects
  • Much shorter translation cycles
  • Much fewer (none) number of people handling the files back and forth
  • Automatic tracking of translation status
  • Supports Agile type development
  • Supports Continuous Globalization
  • Automatic Notification
  • Strong checks on translated files and on base (U.S. English typically) files
  • Reduced number of errors due to translated files

Localyzer 1.5 release - Sep 2014

  • Android Extension 'xml' is supported
  • IOS Extension 'strings' is supported
  • Ability to send a translated file for retranslation:
    • LRM_RESEND tag is used above any key in a translated file that is to be retranslated.
    • Error NONBASE_RETRANSLATE_TEXT is reported in the --source-issues report.
    • Any file with an LRM_RESEND tag is reported in the --files-to-prep report.
    • Any file with an LRM_RESEND tag will be in the next prep kit.
  • Ability to detect whether a project exists: Command --project-exists --project-name xxx will return successfully if the project xxx exists.
  • Ability to pseudo-localize project files: Command --pseudo-loc --locale is_IS -f C:\Lingoport\LRM-Client-1.5\lrm_pseudo_loc.xml --project-name xxx will pseudo-localize all xxx project files. In this example, the locale of the pseudo-localized files will be is_IS and the pseudo-localization configuration file that determines how to pseudo-localize is found at C:\Lingoport\LRM-Client-1.5\lrm_pseudo_loc.xml

Localyzer 1.4 release - Feb 2014

  • Prep Kit Due Date: Set the prep kit due date on a per locale basis. This due date will appear on the PrepKitStatus report.
  • Parameter Mismatch Error:
    • For a properties file, a PARAM_MISMATCH error will be reported if the translated file's parameters do not match the non-translated (base) file parameters.
    • Error is reported in the --source-issues report.
    • Error is reported in the --import-issues report.
    • The flag that determines whether to detect parameter mismatch errors is located in the project definition file.
  • Modified Text Error: If the non-translated file (base file) has been modified since the last prep, then a MODIFIED_TEXT error will be reported rather than a MISSED_TRANSLATION error.
  • Missed Translation Error Detection: A MISSED_TRANSLATION error occurs when the text of the translated file is the same as the base file. The flag that determines whether to detect a MISSED_TRANSLATION error is located in the project definition file.
  • Reimport: Allow the user to import a previously imported prep kit file.
  • Files to Prep Report: Report on the content of the next prep kit.

Localyzer 1.3 release

  • Ability to create a changes-only prep kit: The option --changes-only has been added to the --prep-kit command in order to create prep kit files that contain only those key/values that have changed since the last prep kit.

Localyzer 1.2 release

  • Ability to ignore programmatic strings when importing a kit: Some resource files may contain strings that should not be translated; for example, the resource file may contain UI directives. To automatically add ignore tags to all keys that were not translated, the option --insert-ignoretags was added to command --import-kit.
  • Detect Client/Server mismatch: Localyzer will now issue an error if the client version is incompatible with the server version.
  • Change in location of Localyzer Project data: When installing the Localyzer client, user data, such as the lrmUserConfig.xml file as well as the report folders (logs, reports, prep_kit) will now be located in folder Lingoport_Data/LRM under the user's home directory.

Localyzer 1.1 release

  • Start an Localyzer Project with Translated Files: Localyzer simplifies the initial setup of a project when you already have some translated resource files. During the first --prep-kit command, Localyzer will find, verify and incorporate those translated files into your Localyzer project. Similarly, when a new target locale that already has translated files is added to an Localyzer project, Localyzer will validate and incorporate the additional translated files.
  • Simplified Project Definition File Creation: A wizard is now available to help you generate your Localyzer Project Definition XML file. Instead of copying and editing one of our sample project XML files, follow the wizard's clear instructions to create a Project Definition XML file that you can then use with the --create-project command.
  • Stricter Import Command: To help ensure that the translated resource files are valid prior to importing them into the source code tree, the --import-kit command now requires a --kit-version option.

Localyzer 1.0 release

A Product for Development Teams: Localyzer is used by development teams to manage the delivery, validation and integration of translated resource files. It is not a translation product or a Content Management System.

  • Customize your Localyzer Project: An application's resource files comprise a single Localyzer Project. You customize your project by modifying a Project Definition XML file, setting resource file types, target locales, and other information just once for your project.
  • Localyzer Kits contain all needed files for translation: Each time you need translations for your project, create an Localyzer Kit to send to your localization vendor.
  • Kit Version for tracking: Each kit is marked with a version number to track its translation progress and, once returned, is checked against the pre-translated files for errors and omissions.
  • Multi-User Project Support: There are two components to Lingoport Resource Manager: a server and a client. The server is installed once, while the client can be installed on many user systems. The server keeps track of Projects and Kits, allowing multiple users to share in the creation and integration of Kits for the same Project.
  • Localyzer Command Line Interface: Run simple commands or automate scripts to prepare kits for translation and to import translated kits into the source code.
  • Improve Processes: Localyzer will streamline your localization process, reducing risk and increasing quality.
  • Interaction with the Lingoport Dashboard: Install and configure the Lingoport Dashboard to show your Localyzer project's localization status per locale and any potential issues. For details on a specific issue, use the Dashboard's drill-down feature to view the individual lines in the corresponding resource file.
  • Continuous Integration Support: Update your Lingoport Dashboard with your Localyzer project status during a nightly build so that tracking the localization effort is part of your ongoing development.
