What is Globalyzer Lite and Globalyzer CI/CD?

Globalyzer Lite is the product that allows users to scan code and create reports without having to use the Globalyzer Workbench or set up a database. In the Lingoport Continuous Globalization Server, Globalyzer Lite (Globalyzer CI/CD) is an integral part of the process to create reports that are displayed in the Lingoport Dashboard showing the number of internationalization issues detected.

Using Globalyzer Lite in a Continuous Globalization System

If the Lingoport Continuous Globalization System was installed and configured using the Stack Installer or Stack Updater, then Globalyzer Lite has already been integrated into the system.

  1. Check in a project definition file into source control.
  2. On-board a Jenkins project for the code base using one of the Globalyzer Lite templates like Lingoport.SampleLite or Lingoport.SampleLiteLRM.
  3. Check the Lingoport Dashboard and verify that the results are shown.

Globalyzer Lite is easy to integrate into other Continuous Integration (CI) systems as well.

  1. Check in a project definition file into source control (or, if you prefer, place one in the Jenkins server's filesystem).
  2. Run the following from Jenkins' shell:
    java -jar globalyzer-lite.jar -f "${WORKSPACE}/GlobalyzerProjectDefinitionFile.xml" --project-path "${WORKSPACE}" --report-path "globalyzer-lite-reports"
  3. Use the Lingoport Dashboard to display the results from the generated reports.

You may also pass the reports to your own reporting system.

Using Globalyzer Lite from a command line

Globalyzer Lite can be executed from a command prompt or shell via the following command:

java -jar globalyzer-lite.jar some_location/YourProjectDefinitionFile.xml

After Globalyzer Lite finishes each scan, a relevant Globalyzer report is created at the location specified in the Project Definition's report path.

Lite also allows for altering the following parameters via command line options:

  • The Project Path
  • The Report Path
  • The Files/Directories to scan
  • The location of the Globalyzer License (if using Local Rule Sets)
