Multi language CSV file format

[Rinma]

Actual behaviour

I have translations in a CSV like format that is not recognized from weblate and the exportet result is wrong to. Godot Translation Format

Expected behaviour

I can configure or add new file formats to import and export

Weblate currently doesn't deal with multi language formats at all.

I also tried with a single file for every language like

id,en_GB
hello,Hello
goodbye,Good bye

This works too but in this case the output looks like

"source","target"
"id","es"
"hello","Hola"
"goodbye","adios"

and Godot can't work with this.

The header is currently hardcoded in the translate-toolkit, so any customization in Weblate would require support there first.

I am interested in this too. 👋

Two projects use those formats:

• Game Pimple Popper made with Godot (quite similar to the use case of the OP)
• Game Ella - The Game made with Unity (this has a single JSON file with several languages)

For Pimple Popper I am using Crowdin and the support luckily helped me with the setup (check this PR). 🥰

Is there an upstream issue already? I would love to see this on Weblate too. 🥳

I've created a tracker issue for multi-language files support:
