Summary

  • Ran Xcode's Convert Strings to Symbols across the whole app: every MacPacker/Localizable.xcstrings key renamed from raw English text to a camelCase symbol, grouped by function (save/extract/compress/password/browse) instead of by whichever view happens to render the string, with shared vocabulary pulled into a common* group.
  • Merged FinderExtension/Localizable.xcstrings into the one shared catalog (POEditor only supports a single list), extending target membership and giving the Finder menu's dynamic, runtime-built titles (selection count, folder/archive name) their own new symbols.
  • Fixed two macOS-26-only overload picks the symbol conversion introduced (TextField(.password, ...), a LocalizedStringKey-typed helper in HomeView) and one collapsed ternary that could only ever show "Disabled", never "enabled".
  • Added scripts/restore-manual-extraction-state.sh: POEditor's export drops Xcode's extractionState field, which breaks symbol generation catalog-wide on every download. Run it after every future POEditor download, before building.

Test plan

  • swift test --package-path Modules
  • xcodebuild -scheme MacPacker build (and MacPacker Store)
  • Launch the app, spot-check a few renamed screens (Settings ▸ Extensions, the archive save panel, password prompts) in English and one other language
  • Right-click an archive in Finder, confirm the context menu titles (Open N Archive, Extract to "…", Compress to "…") still read correctly

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Localization
    • Updated menus, buttons, prompts, alerts, settings, and other interface text across the app and Finder integration to display in the selected language.
    • The extraction progress estimate now displays its remaining-time text in the selected language.
    • Added Vietnamese translations for app descriptions and labels, and made Vietnamese available in the version 1.0.0 changelog.
  • Documentation
    • Added a version 1.0.0 changelog entry announcing Vietnamese language availability, translated into 15 languages.

Ran Xcode's Convert Strings to Symbols across MacPacker, MacPacker
Store and the Finder extension. Keys renamed from raw English text to
camelCase symbols, grouped by function (save/extract/compress/
password/browse) rather than by whichever view happens to render the
string, with shared vocabulary pulled into a common* group.

Also fixes two macOS-26-only overload picks the conversion introduced
along the way:
- PasswordFieldView: TextField(.password, ...) resolved to the new
  LocalizedStringResource overload instead of the classic one; bridged
  through String(localized:).
- HomeView: the private section() helper took LocalizedStringKey;
  retyped to LocalizedStringResource to match its call sites.
POEditor only supports one string list, so MacPacker/Localizable.xcstrings
now carries every string for both the app and the Finder extension:
target membership for that file was extended to FinderExtension, and
FinderExtension/Localizable.xcstrings was deleted after its handful of
entries were folded in.

That merge surfaced several Finder-menu titles that build their own
text at runtime (selection count, folder name, archive name) and were
never symbol-converted. Gave them their own dynamic symbols rather than
reusing the settings-row symbol, since the two are worded differently
by design:
- commonOpenArchives(count), commonExtractTo(name),
  commonCompressTo(name), commonCompressContentsTo(name)
- commonNothingSelected for the empty-selection toolbar placeholder
- extractToChosenFolder now reuses settingsExtractToChosenFolder
  directly in the Finder menu, since that wording is identical on
  both sides
POEditor's export doesn't preserve Xcode's extractionState field, so
every downloaded catalog silently loses it and symbol generation
breaks catalog-wide (see scripts/restore-manual-extraction-state.sh
for why). Ran the script against the freshly downloaded catalog.

Also fixes one call site whose generated symbol takes positional
arguments, not the labeled ones it was written with.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request replaces inline user-facing strings with shared localization keys across Finder and MacPacker interfaces. It adds Vietnamese localization metadata and entries, Vietnamese changelog content, and a script that restores missing manual extraction-state fields in string catalogs.

Changes

Localization key migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Finder labels and localization support
FinderExtension/FinderSync.swift, FinderExtension/Localizable.xcstrings, MacPacker/Features/Settings/IntegrationSettingsView.swift, MacPacker.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj, MacPacker/LeanBytes.xcstrings, Config/products/macpacker.json, scripts/restore-manual-extraction-state.sh
Finder menu and integration labels use shared localization keys. The Finder-specific catalog is removed. The project adds Vietnamese locale metadata and catalog entries, translated changelog items, and a script to restore missing extractionState values.
Archive browsing and save workflows
MacPacker/Core/Sandbox/FolderAccessStore.swift, MacPacker/Core/UrlHandling/AppUrlExtractToChosenFolderHandler.swift, MacPacker/Features/ArchiveContentViewer/*, MacPacker/Features/ArchiveWindow/*
Archive browsing, save panels, archive-window commands, and folder-access panels use localization keys for labels, prompts, alerts, and status text. The described actions, option wiring, and alert flows remain unchanged.
App, drop, and extraction surfaces
MacPacker/AppDelegate.swift, MacPacker/MacPackerApp.swift, MacPacker/Features/Home/HomeView.swift, MacPacker/Features/DropWindow/*, MacPacker/Features/ExtractionProgress/*, MacPacker/Features/PasswordWindow/*, MacPacker/Features/Feedback/SendSmileView.swift
App menus, the home view, quick-compress controls, extraction progress, password prompts, feedback buttons, and the quit-during-extraction alert use localization keys. The menu actions and alert flow remain unchanged.
Settings labels and controls
MacPacker/Features/Settings/*
Settings views use localization keys for labels, help text, alerts, and table headings. Finder Sync status text uses the existing state variable, and the cascaded submenu toggle no longer displays a label.
Status, updates, and welcome text
MacPacker/Features/StatusBar/StatusBarView.swift, MacPacker/Features/Updates/CheckForUpdatesView.swift, MacPacker/Features/Welcome/*
Status-bar labels, update text, and welcome-screen headings and buttons use localization keys. Status-bar item and selection counts use localized count resources.

Keep the localization catalog in the FinderExtension target.

FinderExtension/FinderSync.swift uses nine generated localization symbols. The FinderExtension target excludes Localizable.xcstrings, and no catalog exists under FinderExtension. MacPacker/Localizable.xcstrings defines the symbols, but it belongs to the separate MacPacker source group. The FinderMenu package target declares no resources. Therefore, the FinderExtension target has no source for these symbols and can fail to compile.

Add a catalog containing these keys to the FinderExtension target, or provide equivalent target-owned generated symbols. Remove this exclusion when the catalog is restored.

Vietnamese is a new language this release, so it needed backfilling
across every existing v1.0.0 item, not just the newest one - otherwise
a Vietnamese-speaking reader would see a changelog that's mostly
untranslated. Also adds its own changelog entry announcing the
language itself.
