"""pygettext -- Python equivalent of xgettext(1)
Many systems (Solaris, Linux, Gnu) provide extensive tools that ease the
internationalization of C programs. Most of these tools are independent of
the programming language and can be used from within Python programs. Martin
von Loewis' work[1] helps considerably in this regard.
There's one hole though; xgettext is the program that scans source code
looking for message strings, but it groks only C (or C++). Python introduces
a few wrinkles, such as dual quoting characters, triple quoted strings, and
raw strings. xgettext understands none of this.
Enter pygettext, which uses Python's standard tokenize module to scan Python
source code, generating .pot files identical to what GNU xgettext[2] generates
for C and C++ code. From there, the standard GNU tools can be used.
A word about marking Python strings as candidates for translation. GNU
xgettext recognizes the following keywords: gettext, dgettext, dcgettext, and
gettext_noop. But those can be a lot of text to include all over your code.
C and C++ have a trick: they use the C preprocessor. Most internationalized C
source includes a #define for gettext() to _() so that what has to be written
in the source is much less. Thus these are both translatable strings:
gettext("Translatable String")
_("Translatable String")
Python of course has no preprocessor so this doesn't work so well. Thus,
pygettext searches only for _() by default, but see the -k/--keyword flag
below for how to augment this.
[1] http://www.python.org/workshops/1997-10/proceedings/loewis.html
[2] http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/gettext.html
NOTE: pygettext attempts to be option and feature compatible with GNU xgettext
where ever possible.
Usage: pygettext [options] filename ...
Options:
-a
--extract-all
Extract all strings
-d default-domain
--default-domain=default-domain
Rename the default output file from messages.pot to default-domain.pot
-k [word]
--keyword[=word]
Additional keywords to look for. Without `word' means not to use the
default keywords. The default keywords, which are always looked for
if not explicitly disabled: _
The default keyword list is different than GNU xgettext. You can have
multiple -k flags on the command line.
--no-location
Do not write filename/lineno location comments
-n [style]
--add-location[=style]
Write filename/lineno location comments indicating where each
extracted string is found in the source. These lines appear before
each msgid. Two styles are supported:
Solaris # File: filename, line: line-number
Gnu #: filename:line
If style is omitted, Gnu is used. The style name is case
insensitive. By default, locations are included.
