PYGETTEXT(1) General Commands Manual PYGETTEXT(1)
NAME
pygettext - Python equivalent of xgettext(1)
SYNOPSIS
pygettext [OPTIONS] INPUTFILE ...
DESCRIPTION
pygettext is deprecated. The current version of xgettext supports many languages, includ-
ing Python.
pygettext uses Python's standard tokenize module to scan Python source code, generating
.pot files identical to what GNU xgettext generates for C and C++ code. From there, the
standard GNU tools can be used.
pygettext searches only for _() by default, even though GNU xgettext recognizes the fol-
lowing keywords: gettext, dgettext, dcgettext, and gettext_noop. See the -k/--keyword flag
below for how to augment this.
OPTIONS
-a, --extract-all
Extract all strings.
-d, --default-domain=NAME
Rename the default output file from messages.pot to name.pot.
-E, --escape
Replace non-ASCII characters with octal escape sequences.
-D, --docstrings
Extract module, class, method, and function docstrings. These do not need to be
wrapped in _() markers, and in fact cannot be for Python to consider them doc-
strings. (See also the -X option).
-h, --help
Print this help message and exit.
-k, --keyword=WORD
Keywords to look for in addition to the default set, which are: _
You can have multiple -k flags on the command line.
-K, --no-default-keywords
Disable the default set of keywords (see above). Any keywords explicitly added
with the -k/--keyword option are still recognized.
--no-location
Do not write filename/lineno location comments.
-n, --add-location
Write filename/lineno location comments indicating where each extracted string is
found in the source. These lines appear before each msgid. The style of comments
is controlled by the -S/--style option. This is the default.
-o, --output=FILENAME
Rename the default output file from messages.pot to FILENAME. If FILENAME is `-'
then the output is sent to standard out.
-p, --output-dir=DIR
Output files will be placed in directory DIR.
-S, --style=STYLENAME
Specify which style to use for location comments. Two styles are supported:
o Solaris # File: filename, line: line-number
o GNU #: filename:line
The style name is case insensitive. GNU style is the default.
-v, --verbose
Print the names of the files being processed.
-V, --version
Print the version of pygettext and exit.
-w, --width=COLUMNS
Set width of output to columns.
-x, --exclude-file=FILENAME
Specify a file that contains a list of strings that are not be extracted from the
input files. Each string to be excluded must appear on a line by itself in the
file.
-X, --no-docstrings=FILENAME
Specify a file that contains a list of files (one per line) that should not have
their docstrings extracted. This is only useful in conjunction with the -D option
above.
If `INPUTFILE' is -, standard input is read.
BUGS
pygettext attempts to be option and feature compatible with GNU xgettext where ever possi-
ble. However some options are still missing or are not fully implemented. Also, xget-
text's use of command line switches with option arguments is broken, and in these cases,
pygettext just defines additional switches.
