I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Translate XCode StringCatalog files with GPT

gpt-string-catalog

gpt-string-catalog is a command-line tool that uses OpenAI's GPT model to translate iOS string catalogs and xliff into multiple languages.

My motivation as an indie developer was to be able to offer my app in as many languages as possible with the least possible effort. That's why this tool can translate string catalogs and Xliff files.

Installation

To install the tool, clone the repository and run:

npm install gpt-string-catalog

Usage

gpt-string-catalog [options] [command]

Options

-V, --version: Output the version number.
-h, --help: Display help for command.

Commands

translate [options] <file>: Translate a xcstrings file. The file will be translated to the languages provided.
translate-xliff [options] <file>: Translate a xliff file(s). All infos are in the files. You can provide a directory or a file.
help [command]: Display help for command.

Example

gpt-string-catalog translate ~/path/to/Localizable.xcstrings -l es,fr,de -a your_openai_api_key

Environment Variables

OPENAI_API_KEY: You can set your OpenAI API key as an environment variable instead of passing it as an option.

How It Works

The tool reads the specified string catalog file.
It parses the file and extracts the strings to be translated.
For each string, it checks if a translation already exists for the target languages.
If a translation does not exist, it uses OpenAI's GPT model to generate a translation.
The translated strings are then written back to the string catalog file.
