Pootle’s default logging has configurations for all important aspects of the server that we want to log. Pootle also logs to the ‘action’ logger that will log every user, system and command action executed on the server.
You can override the default logging directory by specifying the
POOTLE_LOG_DIRECTORY setting.
The action logger logs each activity related to translation, units changes, store changes, command execution and other activities.
The generic log message is as follows (though some actions do produce slightly different log entries):
[2015-05-04T15:06:39] system X pootle update_tmserver
That is:
[date] user type message
Current action types are as follows:
| Action | Group | Description |
|---|---|---|
| A | Translation | Translation submission added a translation |
| C | Translation | An existing translation was changed |
| D | Translation | An existing translation was deleted |
| UA | Unit | A new unit was added |
| UO | Unit | An existing unit was made obsolete |
| UR | Unit | An obsolete unit was resurected i.e. reinstated |
| UD | Unit | An existing unit was deleted |
| SA | Store | A new store was added |
| SO | Store | An existing store was made obsolete |
| SR | Store | An obsolete store was reinstated |
| SD | Store | An existing store was deleted |
| X | Command | A pootle command was executed |
| QM | Quality check | A quality check was muted (marked as a false positive) |
| QU | Quality check | A quality check was unmuted (reenabled after having been muted) |
| SC | Score | A users score has changed because of an action |
In addition the SC action type also has its own actions which track the actual type of activity that leads to changes in translation. These are used to track scores for the translators.
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| TA | unit translated |
| TE | unit edited after someone else |
| TX | unit edited after themselves |
| TD | translation deleted by admin |
| R | translation reviewed |
| TF | translation’s fuzzy flag is set by admin |
| XE | translation penalty [when translation deleted] |
| XR | translation penalty [when review canceled] |
| S | suggestion added |
| SA | suggestion accepted (counted towards the suggestion author) |
| SR | suggestion rejected (counted towards the suggestion author) |
| RA | suggestion accepted (counted towards the reviewer) |
| RR | suggestion rejected (counted towards the reviewer) |
Various of the action groups have different message structures as outlined here:
