Transr

A Cli mass-updates a XML tag content from csv input. I built it for Salesforce translation xml files update.

It expects two optional parameters:

• a csv-file
• a path to look for xml files

Run transr -h to get details.

Simple logic

Open sample file,

1. It uses api_name column value(e.g.Customer__c) to find a matching file (e.g. Customer__c-en_US.xml)
2. It uses the xml_tag column value(e.g. help) to locate a matching tag content(e.g. <help>foo</help>) in the xml file
3. It updates the tag content foo with the data from the content column of the csv

Preparation

1. prepare file.csv with matched columns (api_name,xml_tag,content), check sample file.
2. prepare translation files in xml folder, check sample files

Use sample data to try out

Download this repo which includes sample data: the file.csv and the xml folder. Run transr in the root path. It should update the help tag content in the xml file(s) of the xml folder

How to install

If you have Cargo, run cargo install transr to install it locally.

To-Do

• Add test scenarios
• Robust error handling rather than stopping
• Generalize the usage?
