Addons¶
Nuevo en la versión 2.19.
Addons provide ways to customize translation workflow. You can install addons to your translation component and they will work behind the scenes. The addon management can be found under Manage menu of a translation component.
Built in addons¶
Cleanup translation files¶
Update all translation files to match the monolingual base file. For most file formats, this means removing stale translation keys no longer present in the base file.
Language consistency¶
This addon ensures that all components within one project have translation to same languages.
Unlike most others, this addon operates on whole project.
Component discovery¶
This addon automatically adds or removes components to the project based on file changes in the version control system.
It is similar to the import_project
management command, but the
major difference is that it is triggered on every VCS update. This way you can
easily track multiple translation components within one VCS.
To use component discovery, you first need to create one component which will act as master and others will use Weblate internal URLs to it as a VCS configuration. You should choose the one which is less likely to disappear in the future here.
Once you have one component from the target VCS, you can configure the discovery addon to find all translation components in the VCS. The matching is done using regular expression so it can be quite powerful, but it can be complex to configure. You can use examples in the addon help for some common use cases.
Once you hit save, you will be presented with a preview of matched components, so you can check whether the configuration actually matches your needs:

Flag unchanged translations to need edit¶
Nuevo en la versión 3.1.
Whenever a new translation string is imported from the VCS and it matches source strings, it is flagged as needing editing in Weblate. This is especially useful for file formats including all strings even if they are not translated.
Flag new source strings to need edit¶
Whenever a new source string is imported from the VCS, it is flagged as needing editing in Weblate. This way you can easily filter and edit source strings written by the developers.
Flag new translations to need edit¶
Whenever a new translation string is imported from the VCS, it is flagged as needing editing in Weblate. This way you can easily filter and edit translations created by the developers.
Statistics generator¶
This addon generates a file containing detailed information about the translation. You can use Django template in both filename and content, see Template markup for detailed markup description.
For example generating summary file for each translations:
- Name of generated file
locale/{{ language_code }}.json
- Content
{ "language": "{{ language_code }}", "strings": "{{ stats.all }}", "translated": "{{ stats.translated }}", "last_changed": "{{ stats.last_changed }}", "last_author": "{{ stats.last_author }}", }

Contributors in comment¶
Update comment in the PO file header to include contributor name and years of contributions.
Update ALL_LINGUAS variable in the configure file¶
Updates the ALL_LINGUAS variable in configure, configure.in or configure.ac files, when a new translation is added.
Customize gettext output¶
Allows customization of gettext output behavior, for example line wrapping.
Update LINGUAS file¶
Updates the LINGUAS file when a new translation is added.
Generate MO files¶
Automatically generates MO file for every changed PO file.
Update PO files to match POT (msgmerge)¶
Update all PO files to match the POT file using msgmerge. This is triggered whenever new changes are pulled from the upstream repository.
Squash Git commits¶
Squash Git commits prior to pushing changes.
Customize JSON output¶
Allows to customize JSON output behavior, for example indentation or sorting.
Formats the Java properties file¶
This addon sorts the Java properties file.
Customizing list of addons¶
List of addons is configured by WEBLATE_ADDONS
, to add another addon
simply include class absolute name in this setting.
Writing addon¶
You can write own addons as well, all you need to do is subclass BaseAddon
,
define addon metadata and implement callback which will do the processing.
You can look at example addon for more information:

Executing scripts from addon¶
You can also use addons to execute external scripts. This used to be integrated in Weblate, but now you have to write little code to wrap your script with an addon.

For installing instructions see Custom addons.
The script is executed with the current directory set to the root of the VCS repository for given component.
Additionally, the following environment variables are available:
-
WL_VCS
¶ Version control system used.
-
WL_REPO
¶ Upstream repository URL.
-
WL_PATH
¶ Absolute path to VCS repository.
-
WL_BRANCH
¶ Nuevo en la versión 2.11.
Repository branch configured in the current component.
-
WL_FILEMASK
¶ File mask for current component.
-
WL_TEMPLATE
¶ File name of template for monolingual translations (can be empty).
-
WL_NEW_BASE
¶ Nuevo en la versión 2.14.
File name of the file which is used for creating new translations (can be empty).
-
WL_FILE_FORMAT
¶ File format used in current component.
-
WL_LANGUAGE
¶ Language of currently processed translation (not available for component level hooks).
-
WL_PREVIOUS_HEAD
¶ Previous HEAD on update (available only available when running post update hook).

Post update repository processing¶
Post update repository processing can be used to update translation files on the source change. To achieve this, please remember that Weblate only sees files which are committed to the VCS, so you need to commit changes as a part of the script.
For example with gulp you can do it using following code:
#! /bin/sh
gulp --gulpfile gulp-i18n-extract.js
git commit -m 'Update source strings' src/languages/en.lang.json
Pre commit processing of translations¶
In many cases you might want to automatically do some changes to the translation before it is committed to the repository. The pre commit script is exactly the place to achieve this.
It is passed a single parameter consisting of filename of current translation.
