grunt-msg-init-merge

Grunt task for msginit and msgmerge

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-msg-init-merge --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-msg-init-merge');

The "msgInitMerge" task

Overview

This task runs for each locale:

• msginit if .po file does not exist to create it.
• msgmerge if .po file exists to update it with new keywords.

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named msgInitMerge to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  msgInitMerge: {
    your_target: {
      src: ['test/fixtures/myDomain.pot'],
      options: {
          locales: [{name: 'ru_RU', folder: 'ru'}, 'en'],
          poFilesPath: 'tmp/i18n/<%= locale%>/<%= potFileName%>.po',
      }
    }
  },
});

You should specify:

• locales - list of locales
• poFilesPath - template for *.po files location.
• src - location of *.pot files.

Task in example above will create/update *.po files:

• tmp/i18n/ru/myDomain.po
• tmp/i18n/en/myDomain.po

Specifying target (e.g. "your target") is necessary!
