jsontl

Script to translate the values in json files with LibreTranslate.

Usage

The script uses Bun, and assumes that LibreTranslate is running on host 127.0.0.1 port 5000 by default. Clone the repository and install the dependencies before running:

$ git clone https://github.com/The-Bubble-Company/jsontl.git
$ cd jsontl
$ bun install

Alternatively, the script can be installed globally without cloning the repository:

$ bun i git+https://github.com/The-Bubble-Company/jsontl.git --global

To translate the values in input.json from English to German execute the script with the following parameters inside the cloned repository:

$ ./jsontl --from en --to de --input input.json

or if installed globally:

$ jsontl --from en --to de --input input.json

An output.json file will be generated in the current directory with the same properties and the translated values.

If desired, an output file can be specified with --output; only new properties will be added if the specified file exists (existent properties won't be touched):

$ jsontl --from en --to de --input english.json --output german.json
Translating... DONE
Input file: english.json
Output: german.json
Translated 10 props from en to de!
