Supported L10n Vendors

Currently, LRM supports 3 localization paths for sending files to be translated. They are:

  • FTP
  • GlobalLink
  • Lingotek
  • Worldserver

The type of L10n Vendor is defined in the config_l10n_vendor.properties file that can exist at either the group or project level. See Group Configuration Files. A template of this file can be found at <HOME>/lingoport/lrm-server-x.y/deploy/templates/dir_structure/group/config

The default location of the config_l10n_vendor.properties file is at the group level. The default settings do not define a vendor so that an error will occur when prepping a kit, forcing the user to chose a vendor. The global L10n Vendor attributes are:

  • l10n.vendor=lingotek - uncomment if using Lingotek
  • l10n.vendor=worldserver - uncomment if using Worldserver
  • l10n.vendor=ftp - uncomment if using FTP
  • l10n.vendor=globallink - uncomment if using GlobalLink
  • l10n.vendor.nonsupported.extensions - a vendor may not support a specific extension such as .json. Enter any extensions that are not supported by the vendor but are supported by LRM. See LRM Fixing Issues for LRM supported extensions. An error will occur if there is no conversion protocol for a non-supported extension.

Example file:

#Default to 'no vendor defined'
#l10n.vendor=lingotek
#l10n.vendor=worldserver
#l10n.vendor=ftp
#l10n.vendor=globallink
l10n.vendor.nonsupported.extensions=

FTP

FTP Configuration

To choose FTP as the vendor, uncomment the l10n.vendor=ftp in the config_l10n_vendor.properties file.

The information that is needed to upload the files to be translated as well as retrieve translated files is:

#FTP Attributes
## FTP inbound attributes for import kit files
ftp.in.host=
ftp.in.location.path=
ftp.in.password=
ftp.in.port=
##SSH, SSL or empty
ftp.in.protocol=
## ssl implicit flag. Set to 0 for explicit, set to 1 for implicit
ftp.in.ssl.implicit=0
ftp.in.username=
## FTP outbound attributes for prep kit files
ftp.out.host=
ftp.out.location.path=
ftp.out.password=
ftp.out.port=
ftp.out.protocol=
## ssl implicit flag. Set to 0 for explicit, set to 1 for implicit
ftp.out.ssl.implicit=0
ftp.out.username=

The ftp.out attributes refer to locations for files being sent out for translation. The ftp.in refers to locations for files coming back in (import) from translation.

Note: For special cases, like using One Planet, you may need to create an .ssh key http://www.linuxproblem.org/art_9.html.

Files Exchanged

Lingoport pushes zip files to the configured FTP outbound endpoint and consumes zip files sent on the incoming endpoint. The structure of the zip file is defined below:

Naming Convention

All the outgoing zip files (containing the translated files) must be named in the following manner:

  • <group>.<project>.<prepkitversion>.<locale>.zip

For instance, for the group Acme and the project frontend, the first zip file sent for a German translation would be named:

 Acme.frontend.1.de.zip

Where

  • Acme.frontend is the name of the group/project
  • 1 is the kit version (how many times it's been sent over)
  • de is the target locale.

Zip File Structure

In addition the structure of the zip file is as follows:

Acme.frontend.1.de.zip
| -- Acme.frontend.1.de
     | -- resources.properties
     | -- messages.resx
     | -- errors.json

This is the structure of the zip file sent for translation on the FTP outbound endpoint and also the structure and name of the file received from translation on the FTP inbound endpoint.

Notes:

  • The names of the files (resources.properties) must be the same exact name when the translation is returned as it was in the zip file sent for translation.
  • The files in one prep kit must all be returned in the translated zip file with a complete translation. If prep kit #1 had three files, the same three files must be returned in, say, German with every key/value pair returned.

Encoding of translated files

We are expecting the .properties to be returned in UTF-8 (no BOM) and so they should not have unicode escaped characters.

GlobalLink

GlobalLink Configuration

To choose GlobalLink as the vendor, uncomment the l10n.vendor=globallink in the config_l10n_vendor.properties file.

The information that is needed to upload the files to be translated as well as retrieve translated files is:

#GLOBALLINK
#globallink.url=
#Password can be encrypted using ./lib/lpcommon.jar
#globallink.password.for.upload=
#globallink.username.for.upload=

#globallink.password.for.download=
#globallink.username.for.download=

#globallink.project.name=
#globallink.project.shortcode=

#Owner is not required
#globallink.owner=

#When to download files - 1 is on completed status (default), 2 is for preliminary targets based on workflow steps
#globallink.download.option=1

Lingotek

To choose Lingotek as the vendor, uncomment the l10n.vendor=lingotek in the config_l10n_vendor.properties file.

The information that is needed to upload the files to be translated as well as retrieve translated files is:

#Lingotek Attributes
#Contains the host URL and api request formats
lingotek.api.hosturl=https://cms.lingotek.com

#Contains the ids for community, workflow and access token
lingotek.api.id.access.token=
lingotek.api.id.community=
lingotek.api.id.workflow=

#Example callbackURL - replace job name (lingotek) with actual Jenkins job name
lingotek.api.callbackurl=http://jenkins.company.com:8080/buildByToken/buildWithParameters?job=LingotekCallback&token=LINGOSQUARE&

#{0} is the access.token
lingotek.api.bearer=Bearer {0}

Lingotek Locale Mapping

Lingotek does not allow language only locales. If there are LRM target locales that are language-only, then a mapping between the LRM locale and the Lingotek locale should be entered into config_lingotek_locale_mapping.properties file if it doesn't already exist.

The default location for the configuration file is at the group level (<HOME>/Lingoport_Data/L10nStreamlining/<group name>/config). The configuration file also exists in the LRM install directory's <HOME>/lingoport/lrm-server-x.y/deploy/templates/dir_structure/group/config folder.

Worldserver

To choose Worldserver as the vendor, uncomment the l10n.vendor=worldserver in the config_l10n_vendor.properties file.

The information that is needed to upload the files to be translated as well as retrieve translated files is:

#WORLDSERVER Attributes
## Worldserver attributes for import kit files
worldserver.in.host=
worldserver.in.location.path=
worldserver.in.password=
worldserver.in.port=22
#SSH, SSL or blank (for FTP)
worldserver.in.ftp.protocol=SSH
worldserver.in.username=
## ssl implicit flag. Set to 0 for explicit, set to 1 for implicit
worldserver.in.ssl.implicit=0

##Zip file name that contains the translated files needs to beone of the following options.
## Option #1 for zip file prefix - Default
worldserver.in.file.name.prefix=${groupname}.${projectname}.${kitversion}.${lrmlocale}
## Option #2 for zip file prefix
#worldserver.in.file.name.prefix=${groupname}.${projectname}.${kitversion}.${wslocale}
## Option #3 for zip file prefix
#worldserver.in.file.name.prefix=${groupname}.${projectname}.${kitversion}.${lrmlocale}.${wslocale}

## Worldserver attributes for send kit files
worldserver.out.url=
worldserver.out.user=
worldserver.out.password=
worldserver.client=
## Available tokens ${groupname},${projectname},${kitversion},${lrmlocale}, ${wslocale}
worldserver.out.project.name=${groupname}.${projectname}.${kitversion}.${lrmlocale}

Worldserver Locale Mapping

The config_ws_locale_mapping.properties configuration file contains the mapping between the LRM target locales and the unique Worldserver locale. The mappings must be unique! All target locales must be represented in this configuration file. The configuration file can exist at the project level and group levels. The configuration file also exists in the LRM install directory's <HOME>/lingoport/lrm-server-x.y/deploy/templates/dir_structure/group/config folder.

Example if target locales are de and fr_FR

de=008_German
fr_fr=002_French_France

Worldserver Project Type Mapping

The config_ws_locale_projecttype_mapping.properties configuration file contains the mapping between a LRM target locale and the Worldserver project type. All LRM target locales must be represented in this configuration file. The configuration file can exist at the project level and group levels. The configuration file also exists in the LRM install directory's <HOME>/lingoport/lrm-server-x.y/deploy/templates/dir_structure/group/config folder.

Example if target locales are de and fr_FR

de=1221
fr_fr=1221
