Pootle FS Documentation

Pootle FS app provides a plugin framework for synchronizing external filesystems containing localisation files.

An FS can be either a local filesystem or a VCS system such as git, svn, hg or cvs.

The app uses a configuration syntax to create associations between Pootle Stores and file stores. The stores can then be synced and changes in either can be tracked.

Syncing is a 2-step process in which changes to Stores/files are initially staged with any or all of:

• add_translations
• fetch_translations
• rm_translations
• merge_translations

Changes to previously synced Stores/files are automatically staged for synchronisation, where no conflict exists.

Once the desired changes have been staged sync_translations is called to perform the synchronisation.
