Ignoring Android Lint “MissingTranslation” check for partial translations

问题

In my app I have a set of languages with complete translations, and another set of languages with translations for only a few strings.

For the languages with complete translations, I want Lint to warn me about MissingTranslations.

For the languages with partial translations, I want to Lint to ignore the MissingTranslations.

I can't figure out how to achieve both of these goals at the same time.

回答1:

On the warning marker, press Ctrl-1 to show the available quickfixes. You can choose to ignore the warning for a certain file in the quickfix resolution selection.

You still have to choose whether it is a partial or complete translation by yourself.

回答2:

For the languages with partial translations you can use annotations. Since you say you only have a few strings there, you can suppress those specific strings in the xml file like this:

strings.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>    

    <!--suppress MissingTranslation -->
    <string name="some_string">ignore my translation</string>
    ...

</resources>

You can do this by ignoring based on a regular expression against the error message in your lint.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<lint>
    <issue id="MissingTranslation">
        <ignore regexp='^".*" is not translated in "ru" \(Russian\)$'/>
    </issue>
</lint>

This will suppress the MissingTranslation error for Russian, but not for any other languages. Basing the ignore on the error message is a bit gross—everything might break if they change the wording—but it's the only solution currently working that I know of.

Note that while the regex is documented as matching against "the error message," it's actually only applied to a portion of the text printed to the screen. The regex anchors in the above example show the bounds.

Some reasonable approaches that did not work for me are:

Adding tools:ignore="MissingTranslation" to a partially translated locale's <resources> element.
Adding <ignore path="src/main/res/values-ru/strings.xml"/> to the MissingTranslation issue block in lint.xml.

If you happen to be the very particular situation of wanting to suppress MissingTranslation errors for a region-specific strings file that only partially overrides your defaults strings file (e.g., default file is English, and you want some overrides in values-en-rUS/strings.xml), see this answer for a solution.
