Crowdin CLI uses a configuration file that contains a description of the resources to manage: files to be uploaded into Crowdin Enterprise and the locations of the corresponding translations.
Para usar o Crowdin CLI, deves primeiro gerar o teu ficheiro de configuração e depois, executar a ferramenta. Por padrão, o Crowdin CLI procura por um ficheiro de configuração nomeado por crowdin.yml (para que não precises de especificar o nome do ficheiro, a menos que seja diferente de crowdin.yml).
To create the configuration file, run the following command:
$ crowdin initA valid Crowdin CLI configuration file has the following structure, so please make sure that you fill out all the needed information:
A typical configuration file looks similar to the following:
"project_id": "projectId" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)
"api_token": "personal-access-token" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)
"base_path": "/project-base-path"
"base_url": "https://{organization-name}.crowdin.com"
"files": [
{
"source": "/locale/en/folder1/[0-2].txt", #source files filter
"translation": "/locale/%two_letters_code%/folder1/%original_file_name%" #where translations are stored
},
{
"source": "/locale/en/folder2/[0-2].txt",
"translation": "/locale/%two_letters_code%/folder2/%original_file_name%"
}
]
To run the above configuration file and upload source files to Crowdin Enterprise:
$ crowdin upload sourcesGet translations from Crowdin Enterprise and put them in the right locations:
$ crowdin downloadPodes carregar as Credenciais API duma variável ambiente, por exemplo:
"project_id_env": "CROWDIN_PROJECT_ID"
"api_token_env": "CROWDIN_PERSONAL_TOKEN"
"base_path_env": "CROWDIN_BASE_PATH"
"base_url_env": "CROWDIN_BASE_URL"
If mixed, api_token and project_id are prioritized:
"project_id_env": "CROWDIN_PROJECT_ID" # Low priority
"api_token_env": "CROWDIN_PERSONAL_TOKEN" # Low priority
"base_path_env": "CROWDIN_BASE_PATH" # Low priority
"base_url_env": "CROWDIN_BASE_PATH" # Low priority
"project_id": "projectId" # High priority
"api_token": "personal-access-token" # High priority
"base_path": "/project-base-path" # High priority
"base_url": "https://{organization-name}.crowdin.com" # High priority
The crowdin.yml file contains a description of the resources to manage and API credentials (project_id, api_token, base_path, base_url). It means that it’s unsafe to commit this file into the code repository because the API key would be accessible to other users. Crowdin CLI supports two types of configuration files:
If you need to run a command with user-specific credentials (for example, upload sources), run the following command:
$ crowdin upload sources --identity 'caminho-para-o-ficheiro-das-credenciais-do-utilizador'But if user-specific credentials file residing in $HOME/.crowdin.yml you can run:
$ crowdin upload sourcesO exemplo de configuração fornecido acima, possui atributos de origem e tradução, ao conter caracteres especiais (wildcards) padrão(também conhecidos como globalizar padrões) para facilitar o trabalho com vários ficheiros.
Aqui estão os padrões que podes usar:
* (asterisk)
Represents any character in the file or directory name. If you specify a “*.json” it will include all files like “messages.json”, “about_us.json”, and anything that ends with “.json”.
** (doubled asterisk)
Corresponde a qualquer frase recursiva (incluindo subdiretórios). Note that you can use ** in both source and translation patterns. When using ** in the translation pattern, it will always contain a sub-path from the source for a certain file. For example, you can use source: ‘/en/**/*.po’ to upload all *.po files to Crowdin Enterprise recursively. The translation pattern will be ‘/%two_letters_code%/**/%original_file_name%’.
? (ponto de interrogação)
Corresponde a qualquer caractere único.
[set]
Matches any single character in a set. Behaves exactly like character sets in Regexp, including set negation ([^a-z]).
\ (barra invertida)
Escapa o próximo metacaractere.
O Crowdin CLI permite usar os seguintes espaços reservados para colocar as variáveis apropriadas no nome do ficheiro resultante:
| Nome | Descrição |
|---|---|
| %original_file_name% | Nome do ficheiro original |
| %original_path% | Take parent folders names in Crowdin Enterprise project to build file path in the resulted bundle |
| %file_extension% | Extensão do ficheiro original |
| %file_name% | Nome do ficheiro sem extensão |
| %language% | Language name (e.g., Ukrainian) |
| %two_letters_code% | Language code ISO 639-1 (e.g., uk) |
| %three_letters_code% | Language code ISO 639-2/T (e.g., ukr) |
| %locale% | Locale (e.g., uk-UA) |
| %locale_with_underscore% | Locale (e.g., uk_UA) |
| %android_code% | Identificador de localidade do Android usado para nomear diretórios "values-" |
| %osx_code% | Identificador de localidade do OS X usado para nomear diretórios ".lproj" |
| %osx_locale% | OS X locale used to name translation resources (e.g., uk, zh-Hans, zh_HK) |
Também podes definir o caminho para os ficheiros no arquivamento resultante, ao colocar uma barra (/) no início do padrão.
A tua opção translation pode se parecer como: “/locale/%two_letters_code%/LC_MESSAGES/%original_file_name%”.
Estrutura de ficheiros e diretórios na máquina local:
- base_path | |-- folder | | | |-- 1.xml | |-- 1.txt | |-- 123.txt | |-- 123_test.txt | |-- a.txt | |-- a1.txt | |-- crowdin?test.txt | |-- crowdin_test.txt | |-- 1.xml |-- 1.txt |-- 123.txt |-- 123_test.txt |-- a.txt |-- a1.txt |-- crowdin?test.txt |-- crowdin_test.txt |-- 3.txt
Example 1. Usage of wildcards in the source path:
#........a tua configuração de projeto........
"files": [
{
"source": "/**/?[0-9].txt", #upload a1.txt, folder/a1.txt
"translation": "/**/%two_letters_code%_%original_file_name%"
},
{
"source": "/**/*\\?*.txt", #upload crowdin?test.txt, folder/crowdin?test.txt
"translation": "/**/%two_letters_code%_%original_file_name%"
},
{
"source": "/**/[^0-2].txt", #upload 3.txt, folder/3.txt, a.txt, folder/a.txt (ignore 1.txt, folder/1.txt)
"translation": "/**/%two_letters_code%_%original_file_name%"
}
]
Example 2. Usage of wildcards for ignoring files:
#........a tua configuração de projeto........
"files": [
{
"source": "/**/*.*", #upload all files that the base_path contains
"translation": "/**/%two_letters_code%_%original_file_name%",
"ignore": [
"/**/%two_letters_code%_%original_file_name%", #ignore the translated files
"/**/?.txt", #ignore 1.txt, a.txt, folder/1.txt, folder/a.txt
"/**/[0-9].txt", #ignore 1.txt, folder/1.txt
"/**/*\\?*.txt", #ignore crowdin?test.txt, folder/crowdin?test.txt
"/**/[0-9][0-9][0-9].txt", #ignore 123.txt , folder/123.txt
"/**/[0-9]*_*.txt" #ignore 123_test.txt, folder/123_test.txt
]
}
]
Muitas vezes, os projetos de software têm nomes personalizados para diretórios de localidade. Crowdin Enterprise allows you to map your own languages to be recognizable in your projects.
Digamos que os teus diretórios locais são denominados ‘en’, ‘uk’, ‘fr’, ‘de’. Todos eles podem ser representados pelo espaço reservado %two_letters_code%. Ainda assim, tens um diretório chamado ‘zh_CH’. To make it work with Crowdin Enterprise without changes in your project, you can set up Language Mapping. You can also override language codes for other placeholders like %android_code%, %locale%, etc.
You can set up Language Mapping either via the user interface (UI) or by adding a languages_mapping section to your file set. We recommend setting up a language mapping via UI since it eliminates the need for duplicating the languages_mapping parameter for each file filter, but of course, you can choose the option that works best for you.
To set up Language Mapping via UI, follow these steps:
To set up Language Mapping in your configuration file, add the languages_mapping section to your file set as shown below.
Exemplo de configuração:
"files": [
{
"source" : "/locale/en/**/*.po",
"translation" : "/locale/%two_letters_code%/**/%original_file_name%",
"languages_mapping" : {
"two_letters_code" : {
"uk" : "ukr",
"pl" : "pol"
}
}
}
]
Mapping format is the following: “crowdin_language_code” : “code_you_use”. Check the full list of Crowdin Enterprise language codes that can be used for mapping.
Se precisas de renomear um ficheiro com traduções, após, a exportação, podes fazer isto com a ajuda do parâmetro translation_replace.
For example, if the file is named “en_strings.po”, it can be renamed to “strings.po”. Para isto, adiciona um novo parâmetro (no mesmo nível do parâmetro de tradução) para o ficheiro de configuração (crowdin.yml):
"files": [
{
"source": "/locale/**/en_*.po",
"translation": "/locale/**/%two_letters_code%_%original_file_name%",
"translation_replace": {
"en_": ""
}
}
]
In this case, “_en” will be erased from the file name.
From time to time, there are files and directories you don’t need to translate in Crowdin Enterprise. In such cases, local per-file rules can be added to the config file in your project.
"files": [
{
"source": "/**/*.properties",
"translation": "/**/%file_name%_%two_letters_code%.%file_extension%",
"ignore": [
"/test/file.properties",
"/example.properties"
]
},
{
"source": "/locale/en/**/*.po",
"translation": "/locale/%two_letters_code%/**/%original_file_name%",
"ignore": [
"/locale/en/templates",
"/locale/en/workflow"
]
}
]
By default, the source files are available for translation into all target languages of the project. If some source files shouldn’t be translated into specific target languages, you can exclude them with the help of the parameter excluded_target_languages.
Exemplo de ficheiro de configuração:
"files": [
{
"source": "/resources/en/*.json",
"translation": "/resources/%two_letters_code%/%original_file_name%",
"excluded_target_languages": [
"uk",
"fr"
]
}
]
If a CSV or XLS/XLSX file contains the translations for all target languages, you should specify appropriate language codes in the scheme.
Exemplo de ficheiro CSV:
identifier,source_phrase,context,Ukrainian,Russian,French ident1,Source 1,Context 1,,, ident2,Source 2,Context 2,,, ident3,Source 3,Context 3,,,Exemplo de ficheiro de configuração:
"files": [
{
"source": "multicolumn.csv",
"translation": "multicolumn.csv",
"first_line_contains_header": true,
"scheme": "identifier,source_phrase,context,uk,ru,fr"
}
]
If your CSV or XLS/XLSX file contains columns that should be skipped on import, use none for such columns in the scheme, for example:
"scheme" : "identifier,source_phrase,context,uk,none,ru,none,fr"
To form the scheme for your CSV or XLS/XLSX file, use the following constants:
identifier – Column contains string identifiers.
source_phrase – Column contains source strings.
source_or_translation – Column contains source strings, but the same column will be filled with translations when the file is exported. When uploading existing translations, the values from this column will be used as translations.
translation – Column contains translations.
context – Column contains comments or context information for the source strings.
max_length – Column contains max.length limit values for the translations of the strings.
labels – Column contains labels for the source strings.
none – Column that will be skipped on import.
"preserve_hierarchy": true
Example of the configuration file using the preserve_hierarchy option:
"project_id": "projectId" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)
"api_token": "personal-access-token" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)
"base_path": "/project-base-path"
"base_url": "https://{organization-name}.crowdin.com"
"preserve_hierarchy": true
"files": [
{
"source": "/locale/en/**/*.po",
"translation": "/locale/%two_letters_code%/**/%original_file_name%"
}
]
By default, directories that do not contain any files for translation will not be created in Crowdin Enterprise. For example:
- locale | |-- en | |-- foo.po |-- bar.po
By default, project files will be represented in Crowdin Enterprise as following:
- foo.po
- bar.po
Using the option preserve_hierarchy, the file structure in Crowdin Enterprise will be the following:
- en | |-- foo.po |-- bar.po
This feature adds support for two optional parameters in the yml file section: dest and type. It’s typically used for projects where the uploaded name must be different so that Crowdin Enterprise can detect the type correctly.
The dest parameter allows you to specify a file name in Crowdin Enterprise. It works for multiple files at once and supports the following placeholders: %original_file_name%, %original_path%, %file_extension%, %file_name%.
dest parameter, the configuration file should include the preserve_hierarchy parameter with the true value.Exemplo do ficheiro de configuração com os dois parâmetros:
"project_id": "projectId" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)
"api_token": "personal-access-token" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)
"base_path": "/project-base-path"
"base_url": "https://{organization-name}.crowdin.com"
"preserve_hierarchy": true
"files": [
{
"source": "/conf/**/*.txt",
"dest": "/conf/**/%file_name%.properties",
"translation": "/conf/**/%two_letters_code%/%file_name%.properties",
"type": "properties"
},
{
"source": "/app/*.txt",
"dest": "/app/%file_name%.xml",
"translation": "/res/values-%android_code%/%original_file_name%",
"type": "android"
},
{
"source": "/conf/**/*.txt",
"dest": "/%original_path%/%file_name%.properties",
"translation": "/conf/**/%two_letters_code%/%original_file_name%",
"type": "properties"
}
]
The parameter update_option is optional. If it is not set, translations for changed strings will be lost. Useful for typo fixes and minor changes in source strings.
Dependendo do valor, update_option é usado para preservar as traduções e preservar/remover as validações de frases alteradas durante a atualização do ficheiro.
Os valores são:
Exemplo do ficheiro de configuração com o parâmetro update_option:
"project_id": "projectId" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)
"api_token": "personal-access-token" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)
"base_path": "/project-base-path"

},
{
"source": "/**/*.xlsx",
"translation": "/%three_letters_code%/folder/%file_name%.xlsx",
"update_option": "update_without_changes"
}
]
The command upload translations uploads existing translations to Crowdin Enterprise. If no options are specified, the uploaded translations will not be imported even if they are equal to the source strings and will not be approved.
Os valores são:
| translate_content opcional | bool | Defines whether to translate texts placed inside the tags. Acceptable values are 0 or 1. O padrão é 1. |
| translate_attributes opcional | bool | Defines whether to translate tags' attributes. Acceptable values are 0 or 1. O padrão é 1. |

To configure the preferred export behavior for each file group, you may use the following export options:
skip_untranslated_strings – Only translated strings will be included in the exported translation files.
skip_untranslated_files – Only translated files will be included in the exported translation archive.
export_only_approved – Only texts that are both translated and approved will be included in the exported translation files.
Example of the configuration file with the export options:
"project_id": "projectId" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)
"api_token": "personal-access-token" #open project and go to Integrations > Command line tool (CLI)

}
]
Define se uma aspa simples deve ser ignorada por outra ou barra invertida em traduções exportadas. You can add the escape_quotes per-file option. Acceptable values are 0, 1, 2, 3. O padrão é 3.
Os valores são:
Escape special characters
Defines whether any special characters (=, :, ! and #) should be escaped by a backslash in exported translations. You can add the escape_special_characters per-file option.
Acceptable values are 0, 1. O padrão é 1.

As integrações VCS requerem o mesmo ficheiro de configuração como a ferramenta CLI, o que significa que, a mesma estrutura é suportada. The only difference is that you should not store the project credentials in the file header for security reasons. Also, you can use a few additional parameters.
The default pull request title is New Crowdin updates. To specify your custom pull request title and add labels to the pull request, you can use the following parameters in the configuration file: pull_request_title, pull_request_labels.
Exemplo:
"base_path": "/project-base-path"
"pull_request_title": "Custom PR title"
"pull_request_labels": [
"crowdin",
"l10n"
]
"files": [
{
"source" : "/resources/en/*.json",
"translation" : "/resources/%two_letters_code%/%original_file_name%"
}
]
Each time translations are committed the default message is shown “New translations {fileName} ({languageName})”. You can use the commit_message parameter to add Git tags (e.g., to skip builds).
Exemplo:
"base_path": "/project-base-path"
"commit_message": "[ci skip]"
"files": [
{
"source" : "/resources/en/*.json",
"translation" : "/resources/%two_letters_code%/%original_file_name%"
}
]
To replace the default commit message, use the append_commit_message parameter with the value false. Também podes adicionar dois espaços reservados: %original_file_name% e %language% para usar o nome de ficheiro e variáveis de idioma apropriados.
Exemplo:
"commit_message": "Fix: New translations %original_file_name% from Crowdin Enterprise"
"append_commit_message": false
"files": [
{
"source" : "/resources/en/*.json",
"translation" : "/resources/%two_letters_code%/%original_file_name%"
}
]
By default, all the languages are exported. If you need to export some specific languages, use the export_languages parameter to specify them.
Exemplo:
"base_path": "/project-base-path"
"export_languages": [
"ru",
"uk",
"ja"
]
"files": [
{
"source" : "/resources/en/*.json",
"translation" : "/resources/%two_letters_code%/%original_file_name%"
}
]
To add existing or new labels to the source strings, use the labels parameter. Labels will be added to the source strings only during the initial upload to the Crowdin Enterprise project.
The strings uploaded to the Crowdin Enterprise project before the use of the labels parameter won’t be labeled. If you remove the label added during the initial upload directly in Crowdin Enterprise, it won’t be re-added on the next syncs.
The label names can contain any characters except “,”.
Exemplo:
"base_path": "/project-base-path"
"files": [
{
"source" : "/resources/en/*.json",
"translation" : "/resources/%two_letters_code%/%original_file_name%",
"labels" : [
"android",
"emails"
]
}
]

There are cases when it’s necessary to use VCS integration and CLI for one project. Mostly, in this kind of situation, you’d need to have two separate configuration files, one for VCS integration and another for CLI. However, there is a possibility to use a single configuration file for both cases.
Since the VCS integration configuration file doesn’t contain project_id and api_token credentials required for CLI, you can pass them directly in the command using the following parameters: -i/--project-id, -T/--token. Alternatively, you may use environment variables for this purpose.
As a result, your command for downloading translations via CLI will look like the following:
$ crowdin download -i {your-project-id} -T {your-token}Need help working with Crowdin CLI or have any questions? Contact Support Team.
