# compare-locales
|
|
Lint GNU localizations
|
|
|
|
Finds
|
|
* missing strings
|
|
* obsolete strings
|
|
* errors on runtime errors without false positives
|
|
* warns on possible runtime errors
|
|
|
|
It also includes `l10n-merge` functionality, which pads localizations with
|
|
missing English strings, and replaces entities with errors with English.
|
|
|
|
If you want to check your original code for errors like duplicated messages,
|
|
use `moz-l10n-lint`, which is also part of this package. You can also use
|
|
this to check for conflicts between your strings and those already exposed
|
|
to l10n.
|
|
|
|
# Configuration
|
|
|
|
You configure `compare-locales` (and `moz-l10n-lint`) through a
|
|
[project configuration](https://moz-l10n-config.readthedocs.io/en/latest/fileformat.html)
|
|
file, `l10n.toml`.
|
|
|
|
# Examples
|
|
|
|
To check all locales in a project use
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
compare-locales l10n.toml .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To check IceCat against a local check-out of l10n-central, use
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
compare-locales browser/locales/l10n.toml ../l10n-central
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you just want to check particular locales, specify them as additional
|
|
commandline parameters.
|
|
|
|
To lint your local work, use
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
moz-l10n-lint l10n.toml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To check for conflicts against already existing strings:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
moz-l10n-lint --reference-project ../android-l10n/mozilla-mobile/fenix l10n.toml
|
|
moz-l10n-lint --l10n-reference ../gecko-strings browser/locales/l10n.toml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
to check for a monolithic project like Fenix or a gecko project like IceCat,
|
|
resp.
