An easy-to-use CLI tool for translating PO files with POFile.io.
This CLI tool automatically locates .po
files in your project and fills in missing translations using the POFile.io API service. It's designed to streamline the process of managing translations in software projects.
- Python 3.7 or later
-
Activate your project's virtual environment.

Set your API key by exporting it as an environment variable (recommended) or passing it directly with each command:
export POFILE_API_KEY=<your_api_key>
To populate all .po
files in the current project with translations, use:
pofile populate
Specify a Directory: To search for .po files in a specific directory, provide the path:
