How to convert translation XLIFF to JSON ? There are some errors.

Hi, How to convert translation XLIFF to JSON ? I get these errors with both with XLIFF and filtered XLIFF.

When I try to convert webapp.xliff to JSON using step 8 of this page:

https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/ProtonMail

Using this command:

python3 convert.py --input ../webapp.xliff --output ../fi_FI.json --locale fi_FI

Error at Debian 11 using Python 3.9.2:

    main()

    convert(file=Path(args.input), output_path=Path(args.output), locale=args.locale)

:wave: I wasn't able to replicate with the test files from the repo. The issue comes from the type of download file you use: filtered XLIFF

You need to pick Download option,

As we upload a source xliff the download option is going to give you the translations as a xliff too.

It's because when you export to xliff the file, crowdin is going to remove some informations for all plurals and it creates a broken file we can't really process (as we won't be able to build the JSON from it with plurals attached to their context)

It's a known issue with crowdin, they can't handle well context and plurals when the source file is xliff :/

Edit: Added this how to to the Readme of the lib https://github.com/dhoko/xliff-to-JSON-ttag

Thanks! Now converting translation works!
