Algebras AI + Github Actions

GitHub Actions — Locale Checker

Algebras Translation Status Action

A GitHub Action to check the status of your application's translations using the Algebras CLI.

Automated Translation Health Checks

This action is designed for NextJS projects with i18n framework for localization. It performs a health check to ensure all translations are in sync across different languages. If any translations are missing or outdated, the action will fail, highlighting issues in your CI/CD pipeline.

Success Case

Loaded configuration: /path/to/.algebras.config
Available languages: en, fr, es, de
Source language: en
Running CI checks...
Scanning for translation files...
Found files by language: {'en': ['src/locales/en.json'], 'fr': ['src/locales/fr.json'], 'es': ['src/locales/es.json'], 'de': ['src/locales/de.json']}

Processing languages: fr, es, de
All translation keys are up-to-date! ✅
::notice::Translation status check passed! All translations are up-to-date.

Failure Case

Loaded configuration: /path/to/.algebras.config
Available languages: en, fr, es, ru
Source language: en
Running CI checks...

CI Check: Found issues with translations:

Language 'ru': Missing keys:
* Features.feature6_description
* Features.feature6_title
* TodoForm.some_new_key_to_test

Language 'ru': Outdated keys:
* Features.feature1_title (Source updated: 2024-10-08, Target: 2024-10-03)
* Hero.title (Source updated: 2024-10-07, Target: 2024-10-03)
