Execute command line validations

[bdovaz]

I see that there are a number of validations that are represented in the UI:

• Missing translations
• Inconsistent punctuation marks
• ...

I would like to be able to run these validations by command line to be able to introduce it in the CI process (PR, nightlies, ...).

Is there any way?

@tom-englert but I see that the script that comes with it only works with Excel files? I want it to scan the resx files I have in the repository for errors based on the rules it has defined.

[tom-englert]

No, you can script anything

[bdovaz]

Can you give me an example or at least what classes do I need?

Thanks

It's just exposing the model, e.g.

ResXResourceManager/src/ResXManager.Scripting/Sample.ps1

Lines 23 to 26 in de9161d

	# Get the list of all resource entries
	$allEntries = $myhost.ResourceManager.TableEntries

will get you here:

ResXResourceManager/src/ResXManager.Model/ResourceManager.cs

Lines 82 to 85 in de9161d

	/// <summary>
	/// Gets the table entries of all entities.
	/// </summary>
	public IObservableCollection<ResourceTableEntry> TableEntries { get; }

so you can iterate over all items, checking the information you want

Thanks but I mean how can I import the resx files in order to get that table entries

In the sample ps1 there is only a importExcel reference

[tom-englert]

ResXResourceManager/src/ResXManager.Scripting/Sample.ps1

Lines 7 to 13 in de9161d

	# Create the scripting host of ResXManager:
	Add-Type -Path 'ResXManager.Scripting.dll'
	$myhost = New-Object -TypeName 'ResXManager.Scripting.Host'
	# Load a project by specifying the solution folder (like in the standalone version)
	$myhost.Load($solutionFolder)
