NAME

Log::Report::Lexicon::MOTcompact - use translations from an MO file

INHERITANCE

Log::Report::Lexicon::MOTcompact
  is a Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

SYNOPSIS

# using a MO table efficiently
my $mot = Log::Report::Lexicon::MOTcompact
            ->read('mo/nl.mo', charset => 'utf-8')
   or die;

my $header = $pot->msgid('');
print $mot->msgstr($msgid, 3);

DESCRIPTION

This module is translating, based on MO files (binary versions of the PO files, the "Machine Object" format)

Internally, this module tries to be as efficient as possible: high speed and low memory foot-print. You will not be able to sub-class this class cleanly.

To get a MO file, you first need a PO file. Then run msgfmt, which is part of the gnu gettext package.

msgfmt -cv -o $domain.mo $domain.po

# -c = --check-format & --check-header & --check-domain
# -v = --verbose
# -o = --output-file

METHODS

Extends "METHODS" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table.

Constructors

Extends "Constructors" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table.

Log::Report::Lexicon::MOTcompact->new(%options)

Inherited, see "Constructors" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

Log::Report::Lexicon::MOTcompact->read($filename, %options)

Read the MOT table information from $filename.

-Option  --Default
 charset   <required>
 take_all  <true>
charset => STRING

The character-set which is used for the file. You must specify this explicitly, while it cannot be trustfully detected automatically.

take_all => BOOLEAN

This will cause the whole translation table to be read at once. If false, a file-handle will be kept open and translations read on demand. That may (but very well may not) save a memory foot-print, especially when the strings are large.

Attributes

Extends "Attributes" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table.

$obj->filename()

Returns the name of the source file for this data.

$obj->index()

Returns a HASH of all defined PO objects, organized by msgid. Please try to avoid using this: use msgid() for lookup.

Managing PO's

Extends "Managing PO's" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table.

Translation

Extends "Translation" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table.

$obj->msgid( STRING, [$msgctxt] )

Lookup the translations with the STRING. Returns a SCALAR, when only one translation is known, and an ARRAY when we have plural forms. Returns undef when the translation is not defined.

$obj->msgstr( $msgid, [$count, $msgctxt] )

Returns the translated string for $msgid. When not specified, $count is 1 (the singular form).

Administration

Extends "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table.

$obj->add($po)

Inherited, see "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

$obj->header($field)

Inherited, see "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

$obj->nrPlurals()

Inherited, see "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

$obj->pluralIndex($count)

Inherited, see "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

$obj->setupPluralAlgorithm()

Inherited, see "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

$obj->translations( [$active] )

Inherited, see "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

DIAGNOSTICS

Error: only acceptable parameter is 'ACTIVE'
