Overview

The OmegaT gradle plugin allow you to generate translation files from original source text with TMX translation memory DB.

Getting Started Using the Plugin

Please follow the below steps to add the Gradle OmegaT Plugin to your Gradle build script.

Step 1: Apply the plugin to your Gradle script

To apply the plugin, please add one of the following snippets to your build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url "https://dl.bintray.com/miurahr/maven/"
        }
        maven {
            url "https://dl.bintray.com/omegat-org/maven/"
        }
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'org.omegat.gradle:gradle-omegat-plugin:0.9.4'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'com.omegat.gradle'

Note: As in 20, Auguest, 2016, the plugin is located my bintray repository and not in jcenter nor official plugin repository.

Step 2: Add the omegat configuration closure to your build.gradle file

omegat {
    projectDir project.rootDir
}

If not specified, the OmegaT plugin assumes project directory $projectDir is an omegat project root.

Step 3: Add your own custom OmegaT task

You can make your own custom task using OmegatTask type. Here is an example to run Java properties alignment from gradle task.

repositories {
    maven {
        url "https://dl.bintray.com/miurahr/maven/"
    }
    maven {
        url "https://dl.bintray.com/omegat-org/maven/"
    }
    jcenter()
}
import org.omegat.gradle.OmegatTask

task runOmegaT(type: OmegatTask) {
    options = [projectDir]
}

task alignProperties(type: OmegatTask) {
    options = [projectDir, "--mode=console-align", "--alignDir=/translatedFiles/"]
}

Step 4: Call translation

$ ./gradlew translate

This will generate translation result in OmegaT target directory.

Step 5: Clean targets

$ ./gradlew cleanTranslation
