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.
