A library to manipulate gettext files (po and mo files).
Project description
polib
polib is a library to manipulate, create, modify gettext files (pot, po and mo files). You can load existing files, iterate through it’s entries, add, modify entries, comments or metadata, etc… or create new po files from scratch.
polib supports out of the box any version of python ranging from 2.5 to latest 3.X version.
polib is pretty stable now and is used by many opensource projects.
The project code and bugtracker is hosted on Bitbucket.
polib is generously documented, you can browse the documentation online, a good start is to read the quickstart guide.
Thanks for downloading polib !
Changelog
Version 1.1.0 (2017/11/27)
Fixed entries sorting when generating mo file (Fixes #78)
Fixed find method (Fixes #84)
Refactored POEntry.__cmp__ method (this should fix issues #60, #65 and #79)
Fixed duplicated entries when merging po file with pot file (fixes #68)
Fixed “None” string being outputted when polib deals with syntax error in string (Fixes issue #66)
Added a fuzzy property to entries (Fixes #76)
Take into account the message context when comparing entries
Leave occurence untouched if line number is not a number (fixes #80 and #90)
Fixed test for mo files that was failing because since gettext version 0.19.8.1, msgfmt skips the “POT-Creation-Date” metadata entry (Fixes #86)
Fixed major revision number comparison
Dropped python 2.4 support
Version 1.0.8 (2016/11/21)
Fixed issue #70 (occurrences parsing for windows pathes)
Fixed issue #71 (tcomment and flags not saved for obsolete entries)
Fixed issue #72 (wrong metadata ordering)
Fixed issue #73 (can’t always unpickle POFile)
Use natural sorting for additional headers (metadata)
Fixed typos in various documents
Version 1.0.7 (2015/07/08)
Fixed bad parsing of indented msgstr_plural
Fixed ordering of “Language” metadata entry
Removed space after “#” in header if comment line is empty (like gettext tools)
Fixed typos / grammar errors (thanks Jakub Wilk)
Take into account msgid_plural if needed when comparing entries (thanks Leonardo Constantino Oliveira)
Fixed issue #63 (str() on a bytes instance when using python3) (thanks Jakub Wilk)
Version 1.0.6 (2015/01/04)
Wheel support
Add missing ‘Language’ and ‘Plural-Forms’ to metadata ordering
More accurate float operation for POFile.percent_translated()
Version 1.0.5 (2014/08/22)
Fixed issue #59: tokens variable referenced before assignment
Implemented feature request #56: line number information in PO entries
Fixed issue #61: polib does not handle previous msgid on multilines properly
Version 1.0.4 (2014/02/19)
Fixed issue #43: improved check that determine if polib is dealing with a filepath or unicode content
Fixed issue #44: polib now checks MO files revision number and throws an error if the number is unexpected
Fixed issue #45: parse properly mo files with no header entry
Fixed issue #47: added flags attribute for MOEntry to be consistent with POEntry
Fixed issue #49: use integers rather than strings for msgstr_plural keys
Fixed issue #51: if a PO file ends with a comment, polib adds a spurious empty entry at the end
Fixed issue #52: bad magic number written on big endian platforms
Fixed issue #53: added a __hash__() method to POEntry and MOEntry classes
Fixed issue #54: use lowercase for state identifiers. This fixes issues with certain locales and string.lower()
Fixed issue #58: use io.open() instead of codecs.open() because the latter doesn’t handle very well universal line endings
Make sure the mo file is closed at garbage collection, this prevents warnings on unclosed file when running tests with python >= 3.2
Better way to test endianness
polib download URL is now on Pypi
Version 1.0.3 (2013/02/09)
