Gettext Extractor

A flexible and powerful Gettext message extractor with support for JavaScript, TypeScript, JSX and HTML

It works by running your files through a parser and then uses the AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) to find and extract translatable strings from your source code. All extracted strings can then be saved as .pot file to act as template for translation files.

Unlike many of the alternatives, this library is highly configurable and is designed to work with most existing setups.

For the full documentation check out the Github Wiki.

Installation

Note: This package requires Node.js version 6 or higher.

Yarn

1yarn add gettext-extractor

NPM

1npm install gettext-extractor

Getting Started

Let's start with a code example:

1const { GettextExtractor, JsExtractors, HtmlExtractors } = require('gettext-extractor');
2
3let extractor = new GettextExtractor();
4
5extractor
6    .createJsParser([
7        JsExtractors.callExpression('getText', {
8            arguments: {
9                text: 0,
10                context: 1
11            }
12        }),
13        JsExtractors.callExpression('getPlural', {
14            arguments: {
15                text: 1,
16                textPlural: 2,
17                context: 3
18            }
19        })
20    ])
21    .parseFilesGlob('./src/**/*.@(ts|js|tsx|jsx)');
22
23extractor
24    .createHtmlParser([
25        HtmlExtractors.elementContent('translate, [translate]')
26    ])
27    .parseFilesGlob('./src/**/*.html');
28
29extractor.savePotFile('./messages.pot');
30
31extractor.printStats();
