# translate-gpt plugin



[![fastlane Plugin Badge](https://rawcdn.githack.com/fastlane/fastlane/master/fastlane/assets/plugin-badge.svg)](https://rubygems.org/gems/fastlane-plugin-translate_gpt)

[![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/fastlane-plugin-translate_gpt.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/rb/fastlane-plugin-translate_gpt)



## Getting Started



This project is a [fastlane](https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane) plugin. To get started with `fastlane-plugin-translate_gpt`, add it to your project by running:



```bash

fastlane add_plugin translate_gpt

```



## About translate-gpt



`translate-gpt` is a fastlane plugin that allows you to easily translate your iOS and Android app's strings using the OpenAI GPT API.



## Features



- Automatically detects the source language and translates to the desired target language.

- Can take contextual information, such as comments in your code, into account to improve translation accuracy.

- Can automatically skip strings that are already translated, improving performance and reducing costs.



## Example



The following example demonstrates how to use `translate-gpt` in a `Fastfile` to translate an app's strings from English to French:



```ruby

lane :translate_strings do

  translate_gpt(

    api_key: 'YOUR_API_KEY',

    target_language: 'fr'

  )

end

```



## Options



The following options are available for `translate-gpt`:



| Key | Description | Environment Variable |

| --- | --- | --- |

| `api_key` | The API key for your OpenAI GPT account. | `GPT_API_KEY` |

| `model_name` | Name of the ChatGPT model to use | `GPT_MODEL_NAME` |

| `temperature` | What sampling temperature to use, between 0 and 2. Higher values like 0.8 will make the output more random, while lower values like 0.2 will make it more focused and deterministic. Defaults to 0.5 | `GPT_TEMPERATURE` |

| `request_timeout` | Timeout for the request in seconds. Defaults to 30 seconds | `GPT_REQUEST_TIMEOUT` |

| `skip_translated` | Whether to skip strings that have already been translated. Defaults to `true`. | `GPT_SKIP_TRANSLATED` |

| `source_language` | The source language of the strings to be translated. Defaults to auto-detection. | `GPT_SOURCE_LANGUAGE` |

| `target_language` | The target language of the translated strings. Required. | `GPT_TARGET_LANGUAGE` |

| `source_file` | The path to the `Localizable.strings` or `strings.xml` file to be translated. | `GPT_SOURCE_FILE` |

| `target_file` | The path to the output file for the translated strings. | `GPT_TARGET_FILE` |

| `context` | Common context for the translation | `GPT_COMMON_CONTEXT` |

| `bunch_size` | Number of strings to translate in a single request.| `GPT_BUNCH_SIZE` |



**Note:** __I advise using `bunch_size`. It will reduce the number of API requests and translations will be more accurate.__



## Providing context



The `TranslateGptAction` allows you to provide additional context for your translation requests in two ways:



### 1. Using a common context



You can provide a common context for your project that will be used in all translation requests. This can be done by setting the `common` property when calling the `TranslateGptAction`. The `common` property should be a string that describes the context of your project.



```ruby

translate_gpt(

  target_language: 'fr',

  common: "This is a mobile app for ordering food online"

)

```



### 2. Adding comments for specific keys



You can also add comments to your Localizable.strings file for specific keys. These comments will be included in the translation request for that key. To add a comment for a specific key, simply include a comment before the key in your Localizable.strings file.



```text

/* This is a comment for KEY1 */

"KEY1" = "Value for KEY1";

```



When you run the `TranslateGptAction`, the comment will be included in the translation request for `KEY1`.



## Authentication



`translate-gpt` supports multiple authentication methods for the OpenAI GPT API:



### API Key



You can provide your API key directly as an option to `translate-gpt`:



```ruby

translate-gpt(

  api_key: 'YOUR_API_KEY',

  target_language: 'fr'

)

```



### Environment Variable



Alternatively, you can set the `GPT_API_KEY` environment variable with your API key:



```bash

export GPT_API_KEY='YOUR_API_KEY'

```



And then call `translate-gpt` without specifying an API key:



```ruby

translate-gpt(

  target_language: 'fr'

)

```
