SDL PowerShell Toolkit

SDL is pleased to announce the availability of a beta version of the SDL PowerShell Toolkit.

The SDL PowerShell Toolkit is a set of modules using Windows PowerShell scripting technology and the Project Automation and Translation Provider APIs from the SDL Trados Studio Professional SDK. In a nutshell, the modules provide functions and sample code that you can re-use in your PowerShell scripts to automate SDL Trados Studio. They feature an initial set of code for use in typical Studio automation tasks such as creating a project, a translation memory or a package derived from a project. You can use these as a starting point for your own PowerShell-based efforts. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with Windows PowerShell as well as an initial understanding of the SDL Trados Studio SDK, in particular the project automation API.

Over time, we would like to see the development community develop further modules and helpful functions that we can share with each other.

Best regards, Ian

  • Hi,

    Just an update to let you know that there is an updated version of the PowerShell Toolkit here:

    No major changes, but support for Studio4/5 and couple of things here and there:

    • The paths to the .dll files are now identified regardless of the operating system(32-bit of 64-bit)
    • The user can select which version of Studio is in use (Studio4 or Studio5)
    • The script now creates in "SampleRoundtrip.ps1" a sample text file with custom content
    • The "Get-Project" function only requires as parameter the path to the .sdlproj file
    • The "New-Project" function automatically creates the source file directory
    • Updated the "New-FileBasedTM" function from TMHelper module to use the new implemention from Studio
    • Updated the "New-Project" function from "SampleRoundtrip.ps1” to use the new implementation from Studio

    Thanks to  for updating it and to  for his advice during the process.  I know this doesn't solve all the problems raised as some of the things require changes in Studio but this is an improvement which I hope will be useful.

    Regards

    Paul
