Configuration

accent-cli reads from a accent.json file. The file should contain valid JSON representing the configuration of your project.

Example

{
  "apiUrl": "http://your.accent.instance",
  "apiKey": "2nziVSaa8yUJxLkwoZA",
  "version": {
    "branchVersionPrefix": "release/"
  }
  "files": [
    {
      "format": "json",
      "source": "localization/fr/*.json",
      "target": "localization/%slug%/%document_path%.json",
      "hooks": {
        "afterSync": ["touch sync-done.txt", "echo 'Done!'"]
      }
    }
  ]
}

Document configuration

Format for the accent.json file.

  • apiUrl: The base URL of your Accent Instance
  • apiKey: Api Key to your Accent Instance
  • project: Your Project uuid

Available ENV variables. (Each variable will override accent.json variables if set)

  • ACCENT_API_KEY: The base URL of your Accent Instance
  • ACCENT_API_URL: Api Key to your Accent Instance
  • ACCENT_PROJECT: Your Project uuid

Version object configuration

  • branchVersionPrefix: The Git branch prefix use to extract the file version

Each operation section sync and addTranslations can contain the following object:

  • language: The identifier of the document’s language
  • format: The format of the document
  • source: The path of the document. This can contain glob pattern (See [the node glob library] used as a dependancy (https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob))
  • target: Path of the target languages
  • namePattern: Pattern to use to save the document name in Accent.
  • hooks: List of hooks to be run

Name pattern

file (default): Use the name of the file without the extension. In the example, the document name in Accent will be Localizable.

{
  "files": [
    {
      "namePattern": "file",
      "format": "strings",
      "source": "Project/Resources/en.lproj/Localizable.strings",
      "target": "Project/Resources/%slug%.lproj/%document_path%.strings"
    }
  ]
}

fileWithSlugSuffix: Use the name of the file without the extension but also stripping the language slug in the file suffix. In the example, the document name in Accent will be Localizable.

{
  "files": [
    {
      "namePattern": "fileWithSlugSuffix",
      "format": "strings",
      "source": "Project/Resources/Localizable.en.strings",
      "target": "Project/Resources/%document_path%.%slug%.strings"
    }
  ]
}

parentDirectory: Use the name of the directory instead of the file name. This is useful for framework which name the file with only the language. In the example, the document name in Accent will be translations.

{
  "files": [
    {
      "namePattern": "parentDirectory",
      "format": "json",
      "source": "translations/en.json",
      "target": "translations/%slug%.json"
    }
  ]
}

fileWithParentDirectory: Use the path of the file in addition to the file name. This is useful if you want to keep your file in multiple nested directories, per language. Use the position of the %slug% placeholder in the target as the root of the path.

{
  "files": [
      {
          "namePattern": "fileWithParentDirectory",
          "source": "translations/en/**/*.json",
          "target": "translations/%slug%/%document_path%.json",
      }
  ]
}

Given this configuration and a file layout like this:

my-project/
  accent.json
  translations/
    en/
      foo/
        locales.json
    fr/
      foo/
        locales.json

The document name in Accent will be named foo/locales.

Hooks

Here is a list of available hooks. Those are self-explanatory

  • beforeSync
  • afterSync
  • beforeExport
  • afterExport

Version

Version can be extracted from the current Git branch name.

  "version": {
    "branchVersionPrefix": "release/"
  }

Naming a branch release/v1.0.0 will cause the sync and stats CLI commands to be invoked as if --version=1.0.0 had been specified.

In addition to syncing the translations manually, you can add a GitHub Actions workflow to your project in order to automate the process.

Example

name: Accent

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: "0 4 * * *"

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v3
        with:
          node-version: 16
      - run: npm install -g accent-cli
      - run: accent sync --add-translations --merge-type=passive --order-by=key
      - uses: mirego/create-pull-request@v5
        with:
          add-paths: "*.json"
