LocalizationGen

MacOS application that converts .csv files into localization files.

Reasons for development

• Improves the inconvenience of developers having to constantly modify phrases that are determined by people other than developers.

Supported Platforms

• iOS
• macOS
• watchOS
• tvOS
• Android

We plan to continue to support other platforms.

How to Use

Based on XCode

• Please put the app in the right place and add the script to XCode.

[App Path] inputPath=[csvFile Path] outputPath=[Path where Localization file will be written] fileName=[File Name] localColumnKeys=[Localization Key] keyColumnKey=[Column Key] written in csv

ex)

${SRCROOT}/LocalizationGen inputPath="/Users/master/Downloads/test.csv" outputPath=${TARGETNAME}/Localization fileName="myLocalization.string" localColumnKeys="ko&en" keyColumnKey="localize key"

Restrictions

The row 1 in the > .csv file is used to distinguish between localColumnKey, keyColumnKey, and so on.

It will be revised so that the row can be designated later.

Interworking with Google Spreadsheets

If you're organizing multilingual files with Google spreadsheets, you can create multilingual files directly from Google spreadsheets to IDE!
