Automation tool for web site content language translation
A system, method and computer readable medium for providing translated web content is disclosed. The method on an information processing system includes retrieving a first content in a first language and parsing the first content into a plurality of translatable components. The method further includes generating a unique identifier for each of the plurality of translatable components of the first content and queuing the plurality of translatable components and corresponding unique identifiers for translation into a second language. The method further includes, for each of the plurality of translatable components, storing a translated component and an associated unique identifier corresponding to the translatable component, thereby storing a plurality of translated components and corresponding unique identifiers.
1. A method implemented on a computer having at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform for managing language translation, the method comprising:
obtaining from web pages, content in a first language to be translated into content in a second language;
identifying at least one translatable component from the content in the first language that is not yet translated into a second language;
automatically scheduling for translation, content in the first language that has the at least one translatable component that is not yet translated, the scheduling being performed based on a priority associated with a corresponding web page, wherein the priority corresponds to a percentage of the web page that is already translated;
extracting one or more translatable components that are not yet translated into the second language;
translating the extracted one or more translatable components; and
storing in a database, the translations of the one or more translatable components as translated components.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of obtaining further comprises:
crawling the web pages by following publicly accessible links to additional pages to retrieve content in the first language that is to be translated.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of automatically scheduling for translation further comprises:
storing one of a universal resource locator (URL) address of the content and an ID of the web page in a translation queue.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the priority is based on a frequency of accessing the web page while the web page is queued in a translation queue.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the translation is one of a machine translation and human translation.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the one or more translatable components is one of:
a text segment;
an image file;
an audio clip;
a video clip;
a file; and
any combination thereof.
7. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having information recorded thereon for managing language translation, wherein the information, when read by a computer, causes the computer to perform the following:
obtaining from web pages, content in a first language to be translated into content in a second language;
identifying at least one translatable component from the content in the first language that is not yet translated into a second language;
automatically scheduling for translation, content in the first language that has the at least one translatable component that is not yet translated, the scheduling being performed based on a priority associated with a corresponding web page, wherein the priority corresponds to a percentage of the web page that is already translated;
extracting one or more translatable components that are not yet translated into the second language;
translating the extracted one or more translatable components; and
storing in a database, the translations of the one or more translatable components as translated components.
8. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the step of obtaining further comprises:
crawling the web pages by following publicly accessible links to additional pages to retrieve content in the first language that is to be translated.
9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the step of automatically scheduling for translation further comprises:
storing one of a universal resource locator (URL) address of the content and an ID of the web page in a translation queue.
10. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the priority is based on a frequency of accessing the web page while the web page is queued in a translation queue.
11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 7 , wherein the translation is one of a machine translation and human translation.
12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 7 , wherein each of the one or more translatable components is one of:
a text segment;
an image file;
an audio clip;
a video clip;
a file; and
any combination thereof.
