This is a CLI tool to speed up the process of string localization built with Python.
I got the idea to create this tool while I was working on a large Angular project featuring multiple JSON files containing lables, after adding a new label to a JSON file i found myself repeating the same action again and again to feature the same label in the other files. So i came up with an idea, instead of going through this process every time i had to implement a new label I could have just created a single JSON file and later on generating as many file as I needed authomatically translated in multiple languages using an authomation.
This CLI tool has been entirely developed using Python 3.11 equipped with Rich and Googletrans.
To lauch the script, the only command you need to run is the following
python3 string_localization_helper.py -f <your_json_file_path> -l <your_file_language> -tr <language_for_translation>
After a few moments you will find a new JSON file in the same directory as the file you used as a template 🚀
As of today there is a total 9 supported languages.
