wagtail-xliff-translation

Wagtail XLIFF Translation is a Wagtail library for converting a Wagtail website to XLIFF (XML Localization Interchange File Format) and back. It allows translators to work with -XLIFF based- translation software.

Exporting and importing a sub-tree, or a single page is supported.

Explanation

After successfully adding this package, new routes will be available (e.g. /admin/pages/<page_id>/xliff/download) and pages will have two extra buttons:

Image extra buttons

Pressing the download button will open the following page, where you can generate and download the XLIFF file:

This will generate an XLIFF file in the following format (page used only has a title):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xliff srcLang="en-us" trgLang="fr" version="2.0"
    xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:2.0"
    xmlns:mda="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:metadata:2.0"
    xmlns:slr="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:sizerestriction:2.0">
    <file id="4_test_app_pagewithrichtext">
        <mda:metadata>
            <mda:metaGroup category="object_nesting">
                <mda:meta type="child">no</mda:meta>
            </mda:metaGroup>
        </mda:metadata>
        <unit canResegment="no" id="title" name="title" slr:sizeRestriction="255" translate="yes" type="local:CharField">
            <segment>
                <source>A simple page</source>
                <target></target>
            </segment>
        </unit>
        <unit canResegment="no" id="slug" name="slug" slr:sizeRestriction="255" translate="yes" type="local:SlugField">
            <segment>
                <source>a-simple-page</source>
                <target></target>
            </segment>
        </unit>
    </file>
</xliff>

Note: the source tags contain the content of the original page, the target tags is where the translations go.

Finally, this package provides an upload page with several options:

Image upload page

Uploading can result in errors, for example when the XLIFF file is missing content in the target tags. Wagtail page validation is also done and can also result in errors.

Editors

The XLIFF file is formatted in such a way it works with XLIFF editors as well, for example Poedit.
