fbt-generate-translations

Generates translations from collected translations (collectFbt.js) to a format that FBT's translate script expects.

What does it do?

Should be run before yarn collect-fbts and after yarn translate-fbts. It creates translations from the output of yarn collect-fbts that are consumable by yarn translate-fbts. If it finds a new hash from the collected translations it adds it to the generated translations and if it doesn't find a hash in the collected translations that are in the generated translations it removes it from the generated translations. This process is otherwise manual using fbt.

Prerequisites

You need to setup fbt before adding this package to your project.

Installation

Using yarn:

yarn add fbt-generate-translations --dev

Using npm:

npm install fbt-generate-translations --save-dev

Add it to the scripts section of your package.json: "fbt-generate-translations": "node node_modules/fbt-generate-translations/index
