l10n and PO file helper tools
Project description
dennis is a command line tool for translating and linting .po files.
It includes the following subcommands:
lint: Lints .po files for problems including errors that can cause your production system to crash.
The system allows for defining other variable formats.
status: Get a high-level status of a .po file including a list of unstranslated strings.
translate: Translates strings in .po files into something else! Comes with an HTML extractor (tokenizes strings so that only the text is translated) and a bunch of translations like Pirate!. This is helpful for l10n testing, development, finding unicode/layout problems, amazing your friends, hilarious April 1st shenanigans, etc.
The system allows for other translators and extractors using a loosely coupled pipeline.
This also works on strings passed in as command line arguments and as stdin—it doesn’t have to be a .po file or in a .po format. Dennis uses dennis to translate all dennis commit messages into Pirate!. That’s how cool dennis is!
Quick start

$ pip install dennis $ pip install blessings # Optional for prettier output
