This makefile allow the web2py translations to be maintained as gettext po files to make easier for translators. These rules assume the en-us.py file is generated from source and contain every translatable string in the application. It further ignore the default.py and plural-*.py files, because I do not know how to best handle them as po files. Too migrate once from py to po files, run this: make migrate oztree.pot pofiles clean To generate py files for use when building, run make To see translation status, run make stats You need a version of Translation Toolkit where translate/translate#3254 is fixed, for example the version from Debian. Related to issue OneZoom#138.

This is great, thanks @petterreinholdtsen and sorry to have only just spotted the PR. I'll get round to this in a week or so. |

Very good to hear. I had almost given up on getting any tracktion
here. :)
Once po files are in use, I hope you can be interested in making the
texts available from translation using for example
hosted.weblate.org. :)

Happy hacking

Did it work out? |

I guess from the feedback that there is no wish for maintaining translations as PO files. Do you have other preferences for handling translations, or do you not want to spend time on translations? |
