Integrating with Weblate¶
Básico do Weblate¶
Project and component structure¶
No Weblate, as traduções são organizadas em projetos e componentes. Cada projeto pode conter vários componentes, os quais contêm traduções para idiomas individuais. O componente corresponde a um ficheiro traduzível (por exemplo, GNU gettext ou Android string resources). Os projetos existem para ajudá-lo a organizar componentes em conjuntos lógicos (por exemplo, para agrupar todas as traduções usadas dentro de uma aplicação).
Internamente, cada projeto tem traduções para cadeias comuns propagadas em outros componentes dentro dele por predefinição. Isso alivia o fardo da tradução repetitiva e de várias versões. A propagação da tradução pode ser desativada por Component configuration a utilizar Permitir propagação da tradução caso as traduções devam divergir.
Importing localization project into Weblate¶
Weblate has been developed with VCS integration in mind as it’s core feature, so the easiest way is to grant Weblate the access to your repository. The import process will guide you through configuring your translations into components.
Alternatively, you can use Weblate to set up a local repository containing all the translations without integration.
Fetching updated translations from Weblate¶
To fetch updated strings from Weblate, you can simply fetch the underlying Git repository (either from filesystem, or it can be made available through Git exporter). Prior to this, you might want to commit any pending changes (see Commits adiados). You can do so in the user interface (in the Repository maintenance) or from the command line using Cliente Weblate.
This can be automated if you grant Weblate push access to your repository and configure URL de submissão do repositório in the Component configuration, see Fazendo push das alterações do Weblate.
Alternatively, you can use Weblate’s REST API to update translations to match their latest version.
Fetching remote changes into Weblate¶
To fetch the strings newly updated in your repository into Weblate, just let it pull from the upstream repository. This can be achieved in the user interface (in the Repository maintenance), or from the command line using Cliente Weblate.
This can be automated by setting a webhook in your repository to trigger Weblate whenever there is a new commit, see Atualizar repositórios for more details.
If you’re not using a VCS integration, you can use UI or Weblate’s REST API to update translations to match your code base.

Adding new strings¶
In case your translation files are stored in a VCS together with the code, you most likely have an existing workflow for developers to introduce new strings. Any way of adding strings will be picked up, but consider using Portal de qualidade para cadeias fonte to avoid introducing errors.
When the translation files are separate from the code, there are following ways to introduce new strings into Weblate.
Manually, using Add new translation string from Tools menu in the language used as the source for translations.
Programatically, using API
POST /api/translations/(string:project)/(string:component)/(string:language)/units/.By uploading source file as Replace existing translation file (this overwrites existing strings, so please make sure the file includes both old and new strings) or Add new strings, see Métodos de importação.
Nota
Availability of adding strings in Weblate depends on Manage strings.
Updating target language files¶
For monolingual files (see Formatos de ficheiros suportados) Weblate might add new translation strings not present in the Ficheiro de idioma base monolingue, and not in actual translations. It does not however perform any automatic cleanup of stale strings as that might have unexpected outcomes. If you want to do this, please install Limpeza de ficheiros de tradução addon which will handle the cleanup according to your requirements.
Weblate also will not try to update bilingual files in any way, so if you need
po files being updated from pot, you need to do it yourself
using Update source strings Métodos de importação or using
Atualizar ficheiros PO para coincidir com POT (msgmerge) addon.
