Usage

  1. Define the dependency in $yourapp/package.json:
"devDependencies": {
    // ...
    "ui5-task-translationhub": "DerGuteWolf/ui5-task-translationhub#semver:^1.0.4"
    // ...
},
  1. configure it in $yourapp/ui5-deploy.yaml (cf. Configuration Options above):

If you do not have the $yourapp/ui5-deploy.yaml file already, it can be generated with npx fiori add deploy-config command.

builder:
  customTasks:
    - name: ui5-task-translationhub
      beforeTask: escapeNonAsciiCharacters
      configuration:
        hostName: sap...
        projectID: 00000
        duplicate:
          de_DE: de_BE,de_CH,de_AT,de_IT,de_LI,de_LU,de_NA
          es_ES: es
          fr_FR: fr
          nl_NL: nl
          it_IT: it
          pt_BR: pt
  1. Add username (environment variable UI5_TASK_TRANSLATIONHUB_USERNAME) and password (environment variable UI5_TASK_TRANSLATIONHUB_PASSWORD) which should be used to access the Translation Hub API in in $yourapp/.env file. Add .env to your .gitignore file to make sure to never commit the credentials. If you have already a SAP Universal ID, pay attention to Note 3085908 and use your account password and not your Universal ID password if they differ.

Kown Issues

Translation Hub sometimes has problems with empty i18n files (and the Fiori Elements app templates bring several empty i18n files along). If you run into these problems, just add these two lines to all empty i18n files (NOTR stands for NOt to be TRanslated):

#NOTR
dummy=Dummy
