iOS

Languine supports iOS Localizable.strings files, the standard localization format for iOS applications. This format handles basic key-value string pairs and supports comments for providing context to translators.

Setting Up

First, make sure you've got a languine.json config file in your project root. Here's an example:

{
  "locale": {
    "source": "en",
    "targets": ["sv", "de", "fr"]
  },
  "files": {
    "ios": {
      "include": ["[locale].lproj/Localizable.strings"]
    }
  }
}

Translating

With your config set, run:

npmyarnpnpmbun
npx languine@latest translate

When you run this command, Languine will:

• ◇Load your source Localizable.strings file (e.g., en.lproj/Localizable.strings)
• ◇Detect any new or modified translation strings
• ◇Generate translations for your target languages
• ◇Create or update the target language files (e.g., sv.lproj/Localizable.strings)
• ◇Preserve any existing comments and formatting
