NAME

Log::Report::Extract::Template - Collect translatable strings from templates

INHERITANCE

Log::Report::Extract::Template
  is a Log::Report::Extract

SYNOPSIS

my $extr = Log::Report::Extract::Template->new
 ( lexicon => '/usr/share/locale'
 , domain  => 'my-web-site'
 , pattern => 'TT2-loc'
 );
$extr->process('website/page.html');  # many times
$extr->showStats;
$extr->write;

# See script  xgettext-perl

DESCRIPTION

This module helps maintaining the POT files which list translatable strings from template files by updating the list of message-ids which are kept in them.

After initiation, the process() method needs to be called with all files which changed since last processing and the existing PO files will get updated accordingly. If no translations exist yet, one textdomain/xx.po file will be created.

METHODS

Constructors

Log::Report::Extract::Template->new(OPTIONS)
-Option --Defined in     --Default
 charset  Log::Report::Extract  'utf-8'
 domain                    <required>
 lexicon  Log::Report::Extract  <required>
 pattern                   <undef>
charset => STRING
domain => DOMAIN

There is no syntax for specifying domains in templates (yet), so you must be explicit about the collection we are making now.

lexicon => DIRECTORY
pattern => PREDEFINED|REGEX

See the DETAILS section below for a detailed explenation.

Accessors

$obj->charset()

See "Accessors" in Log::Report::Extract

$obj->domain()
$obj->domains()

See "Accessors" in Log::Report::Extract

$obj->index()

See "Accessors" in Log::Report::Extract

$obj->pattern()
$obj->pots(DOMAIN)

See "Accessors" in Log::Report::Extract

Processors

$obj->process(FILENAME, OPTIONS)

Update the domains mentioned in the FILENAME. All textdomains defined in the file will get updated automatically, but not written before all files where processed.

-Option --Default
 charset  'utf-8'
 pattern  <from new(pattern)>
charset => STRING

The character encoding used in this template file.

pattern => PREDEFINED|REGEX

Read the DETAILS section about this.

$obj->showStats([DOMAINs])

See "Processors" in Log::Report::Extract

$obj->store(DOMAIN, FILENAME, LINENR, MSG, [MSG_PLURAL])

See "Processors" in Log::Report::Extract

$obj->write([DOMAIN])

See "Processors" in Log::Report::Extract

DETAILS

Scan Patterns

Various template systems use different conventions for denoting strings to be translated.

Your own regular expression

If you do not have a format which is predefined, then you can pass-in your own regular expression. Be sure it captures three components: the beginning of the markup, the msgid to be included in the translation table, and the ending of the markup.

Example:

pattern => qr/(<")(.*?)(">)/

This would match

<"Hello, World">

The markup compenents must contain all allowed white-spacing, to be able to produce the correct line-numbers. Enclosing single and double quotes aroung the msgid will get removed, if still present after the match.

Predefined for Template::Toolkit

There is not a single convertion for translations in Template::Toolkit, so you need to specify which version you use and which function you want to run.

For instance

pattern => 'TT2-loc'

will scan for

[% loc("msgid", params) %]

For TT1, the brackets can either be '[%...%]' or '%%...%%'. The function name is treated case-sensitive. Some people prefer 'l()'.
