README

The silverback translations module allows the creation of string translation sources via an API endpoint where a POST request with JSON formatted data is allowed.

The endpoint is /translations/create/{context} and can be used to create sources in a specific context (for example /translations/create/gatsby to create sources in the gatsby context).

The format of the JSON string should be like that:

{
  "9a9+ww": {
    "defaultMessage": "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"
    "description": "Donec et nunc turpis"
  },
  "Qp1beM": {
    "defaultMessage": "Donec et nunc turpis. In mollis laoreet mi, eu interdum enim tempus sed."
  }
}

so it is a string that can be generated with the formatjs library. Each nested object in the JSON represent a source string. The defaultMessage property will be used as the source string label and the description property will be appended to the context of the string.

Endpoint access

The request must be a POST request, done with an user which has the 'access create translation sources endpoint' permissions. The basic auth method can be used to authenticate the request.
