TwineCSV

Installation

gem 'twineCSV'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install twineCSV

Usage

This micro gem converts twine formatted txt files to csv or xlsx and vice versa. The reason for this is that the localisation information is often provided by external services, which do not want to deal with restricted file formats but rather want to work with Excel or similar programs. Thus this gem was created to create csv or xlsx files from your twine files. After you get your finalized csv or xlsx files back you can convert them to a txt file, with the proper twine formatting. To get more information about twine in general visit their github page.

Support for xlsx files since version 1.1.0.

Convert to csv

twineCSV tocsv localisation.txt converted.csv

Convert to xlsx

twineCSV toxlsx localisation.txt converted.xlsx

You have to provide at least the input file. When omitting the output file the filename is created based on the inputs filename.

Convert to twine file

twineCSV totwine converted.csv localisation.txt
twineCSV totwine converted.xlsx localisation.txt

You have to provide at least the input file. When omitting the output file the filename is created based on the inputs filename.
