Introduction

Globalyzer CLI can be deployed on a Continuous Globalization system. It allows i18n scanning of a project based on a Globalyzer project.gproj saved filed most likely at the top level directory of the source code; the results are then pushed to the Dashboard.

Target User

The typical Globalyzer CLI user is a Jenkins system which automates the tasks of scanning and pushing the results to the Dashboard.

Typical Deployment

Lite has been unzipped on the software developer's desktop and configured as an external tool in their IDE. The source code has a Globalyzer project definition file at the top level directory which specifies how the code should be scanned. The developer's desktop has access to the Globalyzer server

Typical Workflow

The developer uses to Lite within the IDE to:

  • Scan the code being worked on for potential i18n issues before checking in the code to the source code repository
  • refactors the code based on the checks
  • pushes that code to the repository

This requires the rule sets used to scan the code have been vetted and the Globalyzer project definition file makes sense.
