I actually have no time (almost at all), because I'm studying for some university exams in Feb.

In the meanwhile, I'll think of some solutions to implement `msgmerge` in PHP.

I thought of a for-loop, looping through all the .php's, but I think it's too resource-consuming, "inefficient". I must think to a better algorithm.

I'll try something on my computer, so I'll commit only when "it works" :)

I'm not assigning it to me, at the moment, because of my exams (have no time to work constantly on it... sorry)

Cheers,
David

David, after finishing the PhotoOrLogo feature, which I hope commit tomorrow, I will work on the below task:

  • Translate the vacancy title of the job offers

   exposed at the "FS Job Offers"

     https://savannah.nongnu.org/task/?6266


If you want, have time, etc., feel free to carry out this one. Later, if it is not done I will take over it.

Well, I'd think of `msgmerge` (`man msgmerge` for more info ;) ).

In PHP... uhm... I don't know if there's something like that (obviously, without using the system() function...).

I think we could do a for-loop, look for each string beginning with "msgid", and compare it with our new string. If there is match, then go on, otherwise put:

msgid "$string"
msgstr ""

into our new file.

It's an odd solution, but I can't think of a best one.

Argh.

I've found that this editor considers (asterisk)(text)(asterisk) the same as (bold)(text)(bold).

The right RE is:

/$ldq\'([\w\s](asterisk))\'\s(asterisk)\\|\s*gettext/

Substitute the "(asterisk)" with "*".

You'll find the right RE in the file though.

Great!!

Now, we should think how to merge the POT file which we get after processing the source code and our current POT file (a.k.a. the Spanish o the Italian PO file).

I've (maybe) solved with this regular expression:

/$ldq\'([\w\s]*)\'\s*\\|\s*gettext/

considering that $ldq == {.

Look for the "XXX" tags to see my comments.

I've tested it with these two strings:

{'Your job offers'|gettext}
{'My second chance' | gettext | strip:'&nbsp;}

See here how it acts:

neo@matrix:/var/www/gnuherds$ cat a.tpl
{'Your job offers'|gettext}
{'My second chance' | gettext | strip:'&nbsp;'}
{t}My t test{/t}
neo@matrix:/var/www/gnuherds$ ./tsmarty2c__full_t_tag_support.php a.tpl
/* a.tpl */
gettext("My t test");

/* a.tpl */
gettext("Your job offers");

/* a.tpl */
gettext("My second chance");

neo@matrix:/var/www/gnuherds$

It should be tested IRL though.

I'm attaching the "fixed" file.

Cheers (and Merry Xmas),
David

Yes, I need help.

I attach you the tsmarty2c.php file, though you could download it following this reference:
  http://smarty.incutio.com/?page=SmartyGettext


.php files:

We have at least these two cases:

   gettext( trim( current($contractTypes)
     * This translate strings which are kept at
       the data base, as the country names, etc.

   gettext('To access ...')
      xgettext -o output.pot -n file.php


.tpl files:

Problem:
  Only strings which use the {t} tag are collected.
    For example:  {t}The Software Association.{/t}

Proposed solution:
  I attach you the tsmarty2c__full_t_tag_support.php
  file which add a new source code block to match
  the below case:

    {'Your job offers'|gettext

  We just need to modify the regular expression, set an echo $matches[3].. to debug what is matching, and modify the '3' index to get what we want, the sentence.


How to merge all this information in to the new POT file, taking into account that we have to keep the sentences which are not at the source code due to they are at the data base, as country names, etc.?. That is to say, what gettext commands should we use?.

Additionally, I think we should try to keep the current structure, sentences grouped by page. Anyway, if it is not possible, no problem. An automatic update system is cool :)

The tools used to merge all this POT files should be allow us delete the sentences which are not being used, add the new ones, etc.

Fill free to take over some of these tasks. Just change the "Assigned to".
