NAME

Locale::Msgfmt - Compile .po files to .mo files

SYNOPSIS

This module does the same thing as msgfmt from GNU gettext-tools, except this is pure Perl. The interface is best explained through examples:

use Locale::Msgfmt;

# compile po/fr.po into po/fr.mo
msgfmt({in => "po/fr.po", out => "po/fr.mo"});
# compile po/fr.po into po/fr.mo and include fuzzy translations
msgfmt({in => "po/fr.po", out => "po/fr.mo", fuzzy => 1});
# compile all the .po files in the po directory, and write the .mo
# files to the po directory
msgfmt("po/");
# compile all the .po files in the po directory, and write the .mo
# files to the po directory, and include fuzzy translations
msgfmt({in => "po/", fuzzy => 1});
# compile all the .po files in the po directory, and write the .mo
# files to the output directory, creating the output directory if
# it doesn't already exist
msgfmt({in => "po/", out => "output/"});
# compile all the .po files in the po directory, and write the .mo
# files to the output directory, and include fuzzy translations
msgfmt({in => "po/", out => "output/", fuzzy => 1});
# compile po/fr.po into po/fr.mo
msgfmt("po/fr.po");
# compile po/fr.po into po/fr.mo and include fuzzy translations
msgfmt({in => "po/fr.po", fuzzy => 1});
