Any suggestion for Ruby on Rails multilingual translation management?

Question

I am developing a Ruby on Rails application with multilingual support. Now I have 4 languages, each have a separate yml file. I found this is inconvenience that when I add a new translation, I need to add all the lines manually to each yml file.

Does any good translation management tools can help me on this?

Thanks everyone. :)

Answer 1

You can try using Translate (http://github.com/newsdesk/translate) to edit YML files.

Answer 3

Personally I'm using http://99translations.com/ Easy to use for non-programmers, eg. translators and free for the open source projects.

Another service https://webtranslateit.com/ is growing and in active development (blog is updating frequently). They have also free plan, on which you can store up to 500 strings, even for non open source project.

Both have API, for which they have rake task to update translations on your local machine and also on their server. Actually never used, but I think it's good when you have > than 1000 strings and updates are frequent.
