So I recreated the entire thing from scratch with a "correct" folder layout, removed the resources you created (fortunately it's only 3 of them), and checked in the stuff again.
After checking out the project again in a different directory, it turns out that the structure was again screwed up. So I was blaming you for something which isn't your fault... sorry 
In any case, we now know that for that tool to make sense, it's best to also provide the .tx/config, so people get a meaningful layout of the files locally.
I only realized this now, and also that you keep the master copy in git. So instead of using my own directories locally, I can just sync to the git one :-)
By now, I hope I cleaned up the mess I had created. |
There is .tx/config in Bitbucket kindle-touch-l10n repository and this config contains appropriate local paths to resources. You should just use 'tx --push' and 'tx --pull' in cloned repo directory. Those who don't want clone whole repo could just download
https://bitbucket.org/katey_hack/kin...ter/.tx/config and place it in manually created .tx directory.
Sorry for not clearing it in time.
It takes away use-cases for '--auto-remote' (as you've found out, '--auto-remote' use it's own directory structure). '--auto-local' should be avoided at all, as it doesn't include all needed info at updating .tx/config. Instead, I've crafted config manually. It's easy.
Would you like to register on Bitbucket and PM me your username? Then I'll give you admin rights to kindle-touch-l10n repository (with commit rights included).
I imagine translation workflow as following:
- translators add/edit translations at transifex web-interface or via local editing and subsequent uploading to transifex
- releaser pulls updated resources from transifex to local repo clone, commits them, pushes commited changes to bitbucket repo
- releaser compiles whole translation update (with tools which are not created yet) from local repo clone and releases it
That said, I wouldn't mind if youl'll add your (existing or new) tools written in Perl (if they will be pretty well commented
).
Release actions could be automated up to a point when they're executed by bot on some server and then compiled updates with translation pack are provided via some web-site. This is how I want it to be, but don't know yet if I can do it.
