ajs-xgettext

A utility for extracting localised text from AJS templates (and probably other EJS-style templates). Extracted text is stored in the standard PO template format.

PO template file(s) can then be processed by the GNU gettext or other compatible tools. Binary message catalogues can be read and accessed using node-gettext.

Installation

$ npm install ajs-xgettext

Usage

$ ajs-xgettext template.ajs

By default the extractor looks for translation methods from the gettext module, as described in its README, and assumes the gettext module is available in the gt variable.

The --gettext option allows you to specify an alternate variable for accessing the gettext module. E.g.:

$ ajs-xgettext --gettext=GetText template.ajs

The --method option allows you to specify alternate gettext object method calls and which of their parameters to extract. E.g.:

$ ajs-xgettext --method=gt --method=dngt:2,3 template.ajs

The --function option allows you to specify top-level translation functions. E.g.:

$ ajs-xgettext --function=_ --function=_s:1,2 template.ajs

Please run with --help to see all available options.

Hacking

To run the unit tests use expresso. It should work if you run it without arguments from the top-level project directory.
