Supported file formats

Weblate supports most translation format understood by translate-toolkit, however each format being slightly different, some issues with formats that are not well tested can arise.

Not

When choosing a file format for your application, it’s better to stick some well established format in the toolkit/platform you use. This way your translators can additionally use whatever tools they are used to, and will more likely contribute to your project.

Bilingual and monolingual formats

Both monolingual and bilingual formats are supported. Bilingual formats store two languages in single file—source and translation (typical examples are GNU gettext, XLIFF or Apple iOS strings). On the other side, monolingual formats identify the string by ID, and each language file contains only the mapping of those to any given language (typically Android string resources). Some file formats are used in both variants, see the detailed description below.

For correct use of monolingual files, Weblate requires access to a file containing complete list of strings to translate with their source—this file is called Tek dilli taban dil dosyası within Weblate, though the naming might vary in your paradigm.

Additionally this workflow can be extended by utilizing Ara dil dosyası to include strings provided by developers, but not to be used as is in the final strings.

Kendiliğinden algılama

Weblate can automatically detect several widespread file formats, but this detection can harm your performance and will limit features specific to given file format (for example automatic addition of new translations).

See Bilingual and monolingual formats

2

Plurals are necessary to properly localize strings with variable count.

3

Source string descriptions can be used to pass additional info about the string to translate.

4

Context is used to differentiate identical strings used in different scopes (for example Sun can be used as an abbreviated name of the day “Sunday” or as the name of our closest star).

5

Location of a string in source code might help proficient translators figure out how the string is used.

6

Additional states supported by the file format in addition to “Not translated” and “Translated”.

7

XML comment placed before the <string> element, parsed as a source string description.

8

See Customizing behavior using flags

9(1,2)

The gettext type comments are used as flags.

10(1,2,3,4,5,6)

The flags are extracted from the non-standard attribute weblate-flags for all XML based formats. Additionally max-length:N is supported through the maxwidth attribute as defined in the XLIFF standard, see Specifying translation flags.

11

The plurals are supported only for Laravel which uses in string syntax to define them, see Localization in Laravel.

12

Plurals are handled in the syntax of the strings and not exposed as plurals in Weblate.

Salt okunur dizgiler

3.10 sürümünde geldi.

Read-only strings from translation files will be included, but can not be edited in Weblate. This feature is natively supported by few formats (XLIFF and Android string resources), but can be emulated in others by adding a read-only flag, see Customizing behavior using flags.

GNU gettext

Özgür yazılım çevirmek için en yaygın olarak kullanılan biçim.

Contextual info stored in the file is supported by adjusting its headers or linking to corresponding source files.

The bilingual gettext PO file typically looks like this:

#: weblate/media/js/bootstrap-datepicker.js:1421
msgid "Monday"
msgstr "Pondělí"

#: weblate/media/js/bootstrap-datepicker.js:1421
msgid "Tuesday"

Monolingual gettext

Some projects decide to use gettext as monolingual formats—they code just the IDs in their source code and the string then needs to be translated to all languages, including English. This is supported, though you have to choose this file format explicitly when importing components into Weblate.

The monolingual gettext PO file typically looks like this:

#: weblate/media/js/bootstrap-datepicker.js:1421
msgid "day-monday"
msgstr "Pondělí"

#: weblate/media/js/bootstrap-datepicker.js:1421
msgid "day-tuesday"
msgstr "Úterý"

#: weblate/accounts/avatar.py:163
msgid "none-user"
msgstr "Žádný"

While the base language file will be:

#: weblate/media/js/bootstrap-datepicker.js:1421
msgid "day-monday"
msgstr "Monday"

#: weblate/media/js/bootstrap-datepicker.js:1421
msgid "day-tuesday"

XLIFF

XML-based format created to standardize translation files, but in the end it is one of many standards, in this area.

XML Localization Interchange File Format (XLIFF) is usually used as bilingual, but Weblate supports it as monolingual as well.

Ayrıca bakınız

XML Localization Interchange File Format (XLIFF) specification

Translation states

3.3 sürümünde değişti: Weblate ignored the state attribute prior to the 3.3 release.

The state attribute in the file is partially processed and mapped to the “Needs edit” state in Weblate (the following states are used to flag the string as needing edit if there is a target present: new, needs-translation, needs-adaptation, needs-l10n). Should the state attribute be missing, a string is considered translated as soon as a <target> element exists.

If the translation string has approved="yes", it will also be imported into Weblate as “Approved”, anything else will be imported as “Waiting for review” (which matches the XLIFF specification).

While saving, Weblate doesn’t add those attributes unless necessary:

  • The state attribute is only added in case string is marked as needing edit.

  • The approved attribute is only added in case string has been reviewed.

  • In other cases the attributes are not added, but they are updated in case they are present.

That means that when using the XLIFF format, it is strongly recommended to turn on the Weblate review process, in order to see and change the approved state of strings.

Similarly upon importing such files (in the upload form), you should choose Import as translated under Processing of strings needing edit.

Whitespace and newlines in XLIFF

Generally types or amounts of whitespace is not differentiated between in XML formats. If you want to keep it, you have to add the xml:space="preserve" flag to the string.

For example:

    <trans-unit id="10" approved="yes">
        <source xml:space="preserve">hello</source>
        <target xml:space="preserve">Hello, world!
</target>
    </trans-unit>

Specifying translation flags

You can specify additional translation flags (see Customizing behavior using flags) by using the weblate-flags attribute. Weblate also understands maxwidth and font attributes from the XLIFF specification:

<trans-unit id="10" maxwidth="100" size-unit="pixel" font="ubuntu;22;bold">
   <source>Hello %s</source>
</trans-unit>
<trans-unit id="20" maxwidth="100" size-unit="char" weblate-flags="c-format">
   <source>Hello %s</source>
</trans-unit>

The font attribute is parsed for font family, size and weight, the above example shows all of that, though only font family is required. Any whitespace in the font family is converted to underscore, so Source Sans Pro becomes Source_Sans_Pro, please keep that in mind when naming the font group (see Managing fonts).

Dizgi anahtarları

Weblate identifies the units in the XLIFF file by resname attribute in case it is present and falls back to id (together with file tag if present).

The resname attribute is supposed to be human friendly identifier of the unit making it more suitable for Weblate to display instead of id. The resname has to be unique in the whole XLIFF file. This is required by Weblate and is not covered by the XLIFF standard - it does not put any uniqueness restrictions on this attribute.

Java properties

Native Java format for translations.

Java properties are usually used as monolingual translations.

Weblate supports ISO-8859-1, UTF-8 and UTF-16 variants of this format. All of them support storing all Unicode characters, it is just differently encoded. In the ISO-8859-1, the Unicode escape sequences are used (for example zkou\u0161ka), all others encode characters directly either in UTF-8 or UTF-16.

Not

Loading escape sequences works in UTF-8 mode as well, so please be careful choosing the correct encoding set to match your application needs.

JSON files

2.0 sürümünde geldi.

2.16 sürümünde değişti: Since Weblate 2.16 and with translate-toolkit at-least 2.2.4, nested structure JSON files are supported as well.

4.3 sürümünde değişti: The structure of JSON file is properly preserved even for complex situations which were broken in prior releases.

JSON format is used mostly for translating applications implemented in JavaScript.

Weblate currently supports several variants of JSON translations:

JSON translations are usually monolingual, so it is recommended to specify a base file with (what is most often the) English strings.

Example file:

{
  "Hello, world!\n": "Ahoj světe!\n",
  "Orangutan has %d banana.\n": "",
  "Try Weblate at https://demo.weblate.org/!\n": "",
  "Thank you for using Weblate.": ""
}

Nested files are supported as well (see above for requirements), such a file can look like:

{
  "weblate": {
    "hello": "Ahoj světe!\n",
    "orangutan": "",
    "try": "",
    "thanks": ""
  }
}

İpucu

The JSON file and JSON nested structure file can both handle same type of files. Both preserve existing JSON structure when translating.

The only difference between them is when adding new strings using Weblate. The nested structure format parses the newly added key and inserts the new string into the matching structure. For example app.name key is inserted as:

{
   "app": {
      "name": "Weblate"
   }
}

JSON i18next files

2.17 sürümünde değişti: Since Weblate 2.17 and with translate-toolkit at-least 2.2.5, i18next JSON files with plurals are supported as well.

i18next is an internationalization framework written in and for JavaScript. Weblate supports its localization files with features such as plurals.

i18next translations are monolingual, so it is recommended to specify a base file with (what is most often the) English strings.

Not

Weblate supports the i18next JSON v3 format. The v2 and v1 variants are mostly compatible, with exception of how plurals are handled.

The v4 variant uses different approach for storing plurals and is currently not supported.

Example file:

{
  "hello": "Hello",
  "apple": "I have an apple",
  "apple_plural": "I have {{count}} apples",
  "apple_negative": "I have no apples"

CSV files

2.4 sürümünde geldi.

CSV files can contain a simple list of source and translation. Weblate supports the following files:

  • Files with header defining fields (location, source, target, ID, fuzzy, context, translator_comments, developer_comments). This is the recommended approach, as it is the least error prone. Choose CSV file as a file format.

  • Files with two fields—source and translation (in this order). Choose Simple CSV file as a file format.

  • Headerless files with fields in order defined by the translate-toolkit: location, source, target, ID, fuzzy, context, translator_comments, developer_comments. Choose CSV file as a file format.

  • Remember to define Tek dilli taban dil dosyası when your files are monolingual (see Bilingual and monolingual formats).

Uyarı

The CSV format currently automatically detects the dialect of the CSV file. In some cases the automatic detection might fail and you will get mixed results. This is especially true for CSV files with newlines in the values. As a workaround it is recommended to omit quoting characters.

Example file:

Thank you for using Weblate.,Děkujeme za použití Weblate.

Excel Open XML

3.2 sürümünde geldi.

Excel Open XML (.xlsx) files can be imported and exported.

When uploading XLSX files for translation, be aware that only the active worksheet is considered, and there must be at least a column called source (which contains the source string) and a column called target (which contains the translation). Additionally there should be the column called context (which contains the context path of the translation string). If you use the XLSX download for exporting the translations into an Excel workbook, you already get a file with the correct file format.

Most formats supported by translate-toolkit which support serializing can be easily supported, but they did not (yet) receive any testing. In most cases some thin layer is needed in Weblate to hide differences in behavior of different translate-toolkit storages.

To add support for a new format, the preferred approach is to first implement support for it in the translate-toolkit.
