YAML

YAML export allows for the locale to be read by Ruby on Rails applications.

Please note that the yaml format for export will exclude additional string metadata, and so the yaml export file is not the same as a stringer yaml file.

To export in YAML format, first select .yaml from the export dropdown:

export-menu

Then choose the location you wish to save your locale to:

export-dialog

And then you’re done, the locale will be exported in YAML format.

An example of the output:

---
en:
  toolbar:
    add:
      tooltip: "Add a new string"
    new:
      tooltip: "Creates a new and blank locale file"
