Use to determine which translation keys are missing or stale.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-clean-translate --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-clean-translate');

      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    },
  },
});

Usage Examples

Default Options

In this example, we are checking a JS/HTML with and comparing it with keys found in the en.json file. The results will be saved to the tmp folder.

grunt.initConfig({
  clean_translate: {
    en: {
      options: {
        translationFile: 'en.json',
        matches: [
          new RegExp('translate="([A-Za-z0-9_\\\.]+)*"', 'gi'),
          new RegExp("'([A-Za-z0-9_\\\.]+)*' \\\| translate", 'gi'),
          new RegExp("i18n.t\\\('([A-Za-z0-9_\\\.]+)*'", 'gi')
        ]
      },
      files: {
        'tmp': ['testing.js', '123.html']
      }
    }
  },
});
