We had been using shell scripts and sed to test our translations. But
trying to edit pot and po files with sed is nearly impossible because
the file format can vary significantly and the sed editing was failing
and gettext tools were complaining about our test strategy. We had
been using a Python script (test_i18n.py) to perform the actual test
after using shell, sed, and gettext tools to create the files. There
is a Python library (polib) which can read/write/edit pot/po/mo files
(used internally by Transifex, our translation portal). The strategy
now is to do everything in Python (in test_i18n.py). This is easier,
more robust and allows us to do more things.
* add python-polib to BuildRequires
* Remove the logic for creating the test lang from Makefile.in and
replace it with calls to test_i18n.py
* add argument parsing, usage, configuration parameters, etc. to
test_i18n.py to make it easier to use and configurable.
* add function to generate a test po and mo file. It also
writes the files and creates the test directory structure.
* Took the existing validate code and refactored it into validation
function. It used to just pick one string and test it, now it
iterates over all strings and all plural forms.
* Validate anonymous Python format substitutions in pot file
* added support for plural forms.
* Add pot po file validation for variable substitution
* In install/po subdir you can now do:
$ make test
$ make validate-pot
$ make validate-po
* The options for running test_i18n.py are:
$ ./test_i18n.py --help
Usage:
test_i18n.py --test-gettext
test_i18n.py --create-test
test_i18n.py --validate-pot [pot_file1, ...]
test_i18n.py --validate-po po_file1 [po_file2, ...]
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-s, --show-strings show the offending string when an error is detected
--pedantic be aggressive when validating
-v, --verbose be informative
--traceback print the traceback when an exception occurs
Operational Mode:
You must select one these modes to run in
-g, --test-gettext create the test translation file(s) and exercise them
-c, --create-test create the test translation file(s)
-P, --validate-pot validate pot file(s)
-p, --validate-po validate po file(s)
Run Time Parameters:
These may be used to modify the run time defaults
--test-lang=TEST_LANG
test po file uses this as it's basename (default=test)
--lang=LANG lang used for locale, MUST be a valid lang
(default=xh_ZA)
--domain=DOMAIN translation domain used during test (default=ipa)
--locale=LOCALE locale used during test (default=test_locale)
--pot-file=POT_FILE
default pot file, used when validating pot file or
generating test po and mo files (default=ipa.pot)
