I have source files in this format:
define({
root: {
title: 'Display',
colormappingTitle: 'Color Mappings'
}
});
The output files need to have the the root node deleted which I currently do by script by commenting out the relevant lines:
define({
// root: {
title: 'Anzeige',
colormappingTitle: 'Farbzuordnungen'
// }
});
Is it possible to comment out those lines or delete those lines from the generated files in Passolo UI?
thanks
Are you sure that the resulting format is actually syntactically valid?
Did you verify with the consumer of the format that your inserted "comments" don't actually break the format?
To answer your question - no, to my best knowledge, unless you write your own custom parser, it's not possible to remove lines from the generated target files using the built-in parsers.
Same requirement here. As Evzen said. There is no native way to do that.
I implemented a post-processing after Passolo generation to get the desired syntax.
You didn’t mention which parser was used for your sample but I assume it is the text file parser.
In general the goal of a parser is to preserve the existing file structure and to just change the translatable content.
Making user defined changes to the file structure is something that you have to achieve with the customization methods Passolo is offering. You can implement a system macro that is commenting the lines after Passolo has created the translated files or implement you own parser using the SDL Passolo SDK.
