QUESTION

Is there any way go get GNU xgettext (or something similar) to work with scala files?

Asked 2020-May-16 at 06:44

We are using the GNU gettext utilities for creating PO files directly from our code base. The problem is - however - that some of our code base is written in Scala (most of it is Java). We are using gradle for building and deployment.

As far as I can see, Scala is not a supported language according to the xgettext documentation:

5.1.3 Choice of input file language

‘-L name’

‘--language=name’ Specifies the language of the input files.

The supported languages are C, C++, ObjectiveC, PO, Shell, Python, Lisp, EmacsLisp, librep, Scheme, Smalltalk, Java, JavaProperties, C#, awk, YCP, Tcl, Perl, PHP, GCC-source, NXStringTable, RST, RSJ, Glade, Lua, JavaScript, Vala, GSettings, Desktop.

Is there any way to use xgettext for Scala files? I have found this sbt compiler plugin that does what we need, but unfortunately we are using gradle instead of sbt.

The Perl module Locale::XGettext allows you to write your own xgettext variant for pretty much every text format. You only have to supply a parser for the language/format that is able to extract the strings.

It is possible to write the parser in Java with minimal Perl boilerplate code around it. I have described the process in a blog post Extending Xgettext With Locale::XGettext. A sample extractor in Java is available at https://github.com/gflohr/Locale-XGettext/tree/master/samples/Java

Disclaimer: I am the author of all the above-mentioned software and documents!

If interfacing with Perl code sounds too complicated, you can also just write a parser for Scala in a language of your choice, run that parser before xgettext, and dump all translatable strings into a format that your version of xgettext understands, for example C:
