How do I add a global translation check (regardless of file format)?

1

Transifex allows “translation checks” for each file format.
What I want is a check to see if a string has a space at the end. If so, a warning should be issued.
I created this check using a RegEx and it works.
In the Nextcloud project, we currently use 14 different file formats.
Now I have to create this check for each file format.

My question: How can I create this check globally (regardless of the file format)?

If possible, use Transifex Native, because:

  • Checks are applied more consistently

  • Less dependency on file formats

  • Better centralized QA

Hello,

We have files in different formats and hundreds of repos.

Can you give me some more information here?

  • Request admin access, OR
  • Ask an organization owner to configure a global QA rule once

Thank you for your prompt reply.

As I have administrator rights for the organization, I immediately checked your suggestion.

I couldn’t find a way to add a QA rule.

Can you give me a link to the documents?

Hi @rakekniven

This is Carlos from Transifex Support, regarding your question yes, what you mentioned is correct. A translation check can only be set at file format level as described here.

Using Transifex Native can be considered an “alternative solution,” not because it will establish a global translation check for native projects, but because all resources uploaded using Native are sent as Fileless resources. So instead of using TC for different file formats you will only set one for Fileless resources.

I created a product request to create global translation checks so it can be considered in a future release, in the meantime, is there anything else we can do for you?

Best regards,

Perfect, thanks a lot.

At the moment we cannot switch to fileless resources as so many different repos are connected.

No, thank you.

Have a nice weekend.
