Translation Manager Best Practices

[Sharon_Samvel]

Hi Team,

We have multiple production servers, I need to automatically deploy the translation changes done on one server to the others. Could you please suggest a best way to handle this translation Manager.

Thanks

There's not currently any way to automatically do this, but you could implement something yourself via the gateway network, message handlers, and some adaptations to the scripts I posted here:

Perspective System.util.translate Poor/Inconsistent Performance

The ‘round trip’ back and forth is probably not as much of a problem as that post makes it out to be, but… Yes, absolutely. Something like this in a script library should allow you to translate many terms at once, reasonably efficiently: def translate(terms, strict=False, locale=None): from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.gateway import IgnitionGateway from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.gateway.script import GatewaySystemUtilities package = IgnitionGateway.get().getLocalizationManager(…

You can use system.util.modifyTranslation to insert the updated translations piecemeal after obtaining them:

Have there been any improvements for this?
An easy/easier way to deploy the translation manger from one server to the other would be great!

I'm not sure how I would implement something via the gateway network to do it with the translation script and system.util.modifyTranslation you posted.
