🔧 Features

👨‍💻 Commands

• split

Splits the lang file into their own category type and for quests, tasks and quest links they are grouped by chapters.

lang/ ├─ en_us/ │ ├─ chapters/ │ │ ├─ chapter1.snbt # Contains quest, task and quest links ids │ │ ├─ chapter2.snbt │ │ └─ chapter3.snbt │ ├─ chapter.snbt # Chapter names │ ├─ chapter_group.snbt # Chapter group names │ ├─ file.snbt # Quest book name │ └─ reward_table.snbt # Reward table names └─ en_us.snbt # Original file, it updates from split files when loaded/reloaded

replace_unmerged: boolean (you mostly want to use false, unless you know you want to overwrite the previously generated and non-merged split files)

locale: locale code (ie: pt_br, zh_ch, ko_kr)

/langsplitter split <replace_unmerged> [<locale>] # If you don't provide a locale it will split every lang available.

• fill_missing_translation

Fills missing lang entries based on en_us locale and runs the split. Note: You can check at debug.log all the new entries that was added.

/langsplitter fill_missing_translation <replace_unmerged> <locale>

• purge_merged

When you load or reload the quest and there are available split files to be read, they are merged into the original file and after that renamed to .snbt_merged. You can use this command to purge them from the folder if you don't like seeing those.

/langsplitter purge_merged

Usage

• Setup your .gitignore:

# FTB Quests Lang Splitter # ignore original lang files like en_us.snbt config/ftbquests/quests/lang/*.snbt # ignore recovery files config/ftbquests/quests/lang/recovery/*.snbt # ignore already merged files config/ftbquests/quests/lang/**/*.snbt_merged

• For translators:

  • start with the fill_missing_translation command to generate the files containing all entries.
  • translate what you need
  • run /ftbquests reload to merge your changes
  • now your files will be renamed to .snbt_merged
  • if you still need to do more changes you can either:
  • run split command again to generate the file
  • or edit the now .snbt_merged and after done, rename back to .snbt
  • and now reload again to merge new changes
  • if everything is ready to be commited, just run split one last time and PR the relevant files (run purge_merged if they are on the way, but a proper .gitignore should deal with it).

• For maintainers:

  • update the .gitignore from your repo
  • now the /lang/ folder should only contain locale folders, not files anymore.
  • to generate those starting files run split command and commit the files.
  • after the folders are set, now you can remove the original locale .snbt file (those are auto-generated now when merged from split files at runtime)
  • for now on, only accept PRs/commits that are from split files.

• About the recovery folder:

  • when files are merged and they replace an existing entry like when you translate again an entry, it will backup that entry at folder recovery containing the following:
  • a file with name like en_us_<timestamp>.snbt will be generated (ie: en_us_1755120819.snbt)

{ "chapters/basic_armor.snbt": { quest.004D61425172324F.quest_subtitle: { new: "This is my new subtitle" old: "This is the old subtitle" } } }
