StringsUtility Project Recommendations

Project tips in order to make StringsUtility as effective and error-free as possible.

Table Of Contents:

  1. Tips
  2. Requirements
  3. Common Errors
  4. Supported Languages

Tips and Standards:

  • Currently does not support multi line strings
  • To avoid unnecessary translation, strings which contains substrings like file extensions, keywords, and symbols will not be translated. Edit strings and files to follow these standards. 
    "/", "\\", "{", "}", "_", "#", "%", ".swift", ".xib", ".storyboard", ".jpg", ".jpeg", ".png", ".mp4", ".mp3", ".wav", ".mov", ".gif", "http", "https", ".com", "identifier"
  • Strings like url, identifiers, and more which contains substrings like the following will not be constantify. 
    "/", "\\", "{", "}", "http", "https", ".com", "#", "%", "identifier"

Requirements Checklists

FEATURE 1: Moving Strings to Constant file

  • Have at least 1 constants file (e.g. Constants.swift) in your project for the strings to get stored into.

FEATURE 2: Strings Localization

  • Create a Localizable.strings file. In your project, New File -> String File -> Name it Localizable exactly

  • To support more languages, go to Project -> Info -> Localizations -> + and add all the languages you want to support like the demo below

FEATURE 3: String Translation

Common Error Fixes

  • dialing: google: could not find default credentials.
    • Make sure you have done the following:
    • go get -u cloud.google.com/go/translate
    • export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=[PATH]
