Gettext Cloud Translate

This little program will simplify starting a new Gettext translation by letting you send the untranslated entries through Google Translate via the GCP Cloud Translate.

Installation

Run

cargo install cloud-translate

Usage

To use the script, you need a Google Cloud account. Install gcloud and setup application default credentials.

You do that by running

gcloud auth application-default login

When that is done, you should be able to see an access token by running

gcloud auth application-default print-access-token

You will need to create a new Google Cloud project. The project ID is needed for running cloud-translate:

cloud-translate your-project-id-123456 some-path/xx.po 10000

The 10000 argument denotes the number of Unicode characters you want to translate: Cloud Translate is priced per character you translate. Currently, you get 500k characters for free per month.
