Useful tools for ArchWiki translators, now written in TypeScript.

## Usage

- [Install the UserScript](https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/495960-archtranslator)

- Change the active language (the default is Polish):

![Change language tool](assets/change-lang.png)

## Build

You can build the script yourself:

Clone the repo:

`git clone https://github.com/bonk-dev/arch-translator.git`

Remember to install the dev dependencies:

`npm install`

Single build:

`npm run build`

Build on change:

`npm run watch`

The three (two usable) files will be in the `build/` directory:

- `arch-translator.user.js` - ready to use UserScript

- `arch-translator.srcmap.user.js` - ready to use UserScript but with inlined sourcemap

- `arch-translator.js` - raw output from [esbuild](https://esbuild.github.io/) 

(no UserScript header)

## Features

- Copies and pastes the original source;

- Inserts the localized {{TranslationStatus}} template;

- Inserts the English interlanguage link;

- Sorts the header elements according to the ArchWiki style;

- Scans the page content for already translated articles.

### Translated articles scanner

The script scans the article for links to other articles and checks if these articles have

been already translated to the language of choice.

In this [example](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Wireshark_(Polski)&action=edit) we can see that the page content contains many links to English pages.

Pages highlighted in green have a translation page.
