Environment variables
Set PAYLOAD_CROWDIN_SYNC_ALWAYS_UPDATE=true
to update all localized fields in Crowdin when an article is created/updated.
By default, updates will only be sent to Crowdin in the following scenarios.
- At least one of the localized text fields has changed: any change to a localized
text
field updates the compiledfields.json
that is sent to Crowdin. - A
richText
field is changed. IndividualrichText
fields will only be updated on Crowdin if the content has changed - each field has its own file on Crowdin.
It is useful to have a convenient way of forcing all localized fields to update at once. For example, if the plugin is activated on an existing install, it is convenient to trigger all updates on Crowdin for a given article without having to change every richText
field or one of the text
fields.
Details
Sync translations
Translation synchronisation refers to the process of loading translations from Crowdin into Payload CMS. If drafts are enabled, this will create a new version in Payload CMS for each locale. The source locale (e.g. en
) is not affected.
A UI has not been developed for this feature yet. To perform updates now, use custom REST API endpoints that are made available by this plugin.
If supplied translations do not contain required fields, translation updates will not be applied and validation errors will be returned in the API response.
Sync global translations
To sync global translations, add a new article in Crowdin Translations that contains the global slug
. Each article contains an excludeLocales
field that can be used to prevent some locales from being included in the update operation.
Dry run
To review translations, visit:
<payload-base-url>/api/crowdin-article-directories/<article-id>/review
e.g. https://my-payload-app.com/api/crowdin-article-directories/64a880bb87ef685285a4d9dc/update
A JSON object is returned that allows you to review what will be updated in the database. The JSON object will contain the following keys:
draft
indicates that on update, a draft will be created rather than a published version. See Drafts | Payload CMS.source
review the source document. e.g. for theen
locale.translations
<locale>
e.g.es_ES
currentTranslations
all current localized fields and values.currentTranslations
localized fields populated with values from Crowdin.changed
boolean to indicate whether any changes have been made in Crowdin.
Update
To update translations, visit:
<payload-base-url>/api/crowdin-article-directories/<article-id>/review
e.g. https://my-payload-app.com/api/crowdin-article-directories/64a880bb87ef685285a4d9dc/update
Pass the draft=true
query parameter to update as a draft rather than a published version.
The document will be updated and the same report will be generated as for a review.
