ability to upload translated catalogs #47

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
This is a feature request

I like the feature of downloading the catalog file through Rosetta. I can email 
it to the translators, 
they translate using their favorite software and email me back the new file. 

Now I think it would be great if I can upload the file through Rosetta, so it 
replaces the outdated 
catalog.

Wouldn't it be easier and safer to upload the file outside of Rosetta, then 
force a reload?

The issue is that all the content updates are done by a project manager through 
Django admin. He also 
manages communication with translators. They are not our employees, so we don't 
want to give them access 
to the admin. 

We have our apps in 12-17 languages, the translations for most of them are done 
outside of Rosetta and 
emailed to him. Need to use FTP is just another complexity for this 
non-technical person. He misses the nice 
whole-process-in-one-place experience of Plone sites we have too.

I assume that a need to replace a whole .po catalog with a new translated file 
is quite common scenario. As 
rosetta is about maintaining translations, it would be good to allow such 
functionality.
