toni-cli v1.0.1

toni

A CLI tool to translate JSON locale files based on configuration.

Description

toni is a command-line interface tool designed to help you translate locale JSON files based on a configuration file. It uses Google Translate to perform the translations and supports multiple target languages.

Installation

You can install the CLI tool globally using npm, yarn, or pnpm:

npm

npm install -g toni

yarn

yarn global add toni```

pnpm

pnpm add -g toni

Configuration

Create a toni.config.json in your project root with the following structure:

{
  "localePath": "./locales",
  "baseLanguage": "en",
  "targetLanguages": ["es", "fr", "de"]
}

• localePath: Path to the directory containing your locale JSON files.
• baseLanguage: The base language of your locale files (e.g., "en" for English).
• targetLanguages: An array of languages to which you want to translate your locale files (e.g., "es", "fr", "de" for Spanish, French, and German).

Usage

toni translate

Example

Suppose you have the following directory structure and configuration:

my-project/
├── locales/
│   ├── en.json
├── toni.config.json

toni.config.json:

{
  "localePath": "./locales",
  "baseLanguage": "en",
  "targetLanguages": ["es", "fr", "de"]
}

Running toni translate will produce:

my-project/
├── locales/
│   ├── en.json
│   ├── es.json
│   ├── fr.json
│   ├── de.json

Each translated file will contain the translations for the respective target language.

Additional Notes

1. Ensure you have appropriate permissions and handle rate limiting and errors when using translation APIs in a production environment.
2. You might need to set up environment variables or configuration for the translation API you use (e.g., API keys for Google Translate).
