yesglot 0.1.0a4

Django app for seamless AI-assisted translation of .po files.

yesglot

A Django app that autofills missing translations in .po files using an LLM, while respecting ICU/format placeholders and source references.

Why yesglot?

• 🧠 LLM-powered: works with 100+ LLM models through LiteLLM’s unified API
• 🔒 Placeholder-safe: keeps {name}, {{handlebars}}, URLs, and emails intact
• 📦 Django-native: one management command: python manage.py translatemessages
• 🧮 Cost-aware: prints per-file and total cost (via LiteLLM)
• 🧱 Token-safe batching: automatically splits work to avoid context overflows

Requirements

• Python 3.10+ (recommended)
• Django

Installation

pip install yesglot

In settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    "yesglot",
]

Configuration

Set the model from 100+ LLM models and API key in your Django settings:

YESGLOT_LLM_MODEL = "openai/gpt-4o-mini"
YESGLOT_API_KEY = "sk-..."

Optional parameters,

• YESGLOT_SAFETY_MARGIN: 1000 (default)
• YESGLOT_PER_ITEM_OUTPUT: 100 (default)

Usage

A typical workflow with Django translations:

1. Extract messages into .po files (creates entries with empty msgstr):

python manage.py makemessages -all

2. Autofill missing translations with yesglot:

python manage.py translatemessages

Example output:

▶ Translation run started.
Using translation model: openai/gpt-4o-mini

• Language: French [fr]
  - Scanning: locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/django.po
    Missing entries: 12. Translating…
    Filled 12 entries in 3.21s • Cost: $0.0123

============================================================
Done in 3.76s • Files: 1 • Missing found: 12 • Filled: 12 • Total cost: $0.0123

3. Compile translations into .mo files (so Django can use them at runtime):

python manage.py compilemessages
