Name¶

Dist::Zilla::App::Command::msg_scan - Scan localization strings into a translation template

Synopsis¶

In dist.ini:

  [LocaleTextDomain]
  textdomain = My-App
  lang_dir = po

On the command line:

  dzil msg-scan

Description¶

This command scans your distribution's Perl modules and creates or updates a GNU gettext <http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/>-style language translation template. It relies on the settings from the "LocaleTextDomain" plugin for its settings, and requires that the GNU gettext utilities be available.

Options¶

"--xgettext" The location of the "xgettext" program, which is distributed with GNU gettext <http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/>. Defaults to just "xgettext", which should work if it's in your path. "--encoding" The encoding to assume the Perl modules are encoded in. Defaults to "UTF-8". "--pot-file" The name of the template file to write to. Defaults to "$lang_dir/$textdomain.pot". "--copyright-holder" Name of the application copyright holder. Defaults to the copyright holder defined in dist.ini. "--bugs-email" Email address to which translation bug reports should be sent. Defaults to the email address of the first distribution author, if available.
