Add-onsDITA Translation Package Builder
This add-on contributes contextual menu actions that help you build a translation package for DITA files that can be sent to translators. You can also extract the changed files back into your project once you receive the package back from the translators.
It contributes a sub-menu named "Translation Package Builder" in the DITA Maps Manager 's contextual menu. The actions present in this group are:
- Generate Milestone - this action is the first one to use. It will generate an unique hash for each documentation resource. This information will be used by the second action to detect which files have been modified. A milestone file should be generated the first time you install this plugin and, afterwards, after each package sent to translators.
-
Create Modified Files Package
- this action detects which files have been
changed since the last generated milestone. These files are packed
insdie a ZIP
file that can be send to translators. After doing this you can also
generate a
new milestone so that the next package will contain just the new
changes.
This action also creates a report with the modified resources ( modified_resources_report.xhtml ). If your translation agency is DITA-aware you can opt to send him the entire DITA project together with this report.
- Apply Package - when the translated files arrive from the translator you should open the DITA map that corresponds to the received language (open dita-map-french.ditamap if the package contains the french translation). Invoking this action will extract the changed files inside map's directory.
