Log::Report::Extract::PerlPPI(3)

NAME
Log::Report::Extract::PerlPPI - Collect translatable strings from Perl using PPI

SYNOPSIS
 my $ppi = Log::Report::Extract::PerlPPI->new
  ( lexicon => '/usr/share/locale'
  );
 $ppi->process('lib/My/Pkg.pm');  # many times
 $ppi->showStats;   # to dispatchers which accept TRACE or INFO
 $ppi->write;       # also cleans processing memory.

DESCRIPTION
This module helps maintaining the POT files, updating the list of message-ids which are kept in them. After initiation, the process() method needs to be called with all files which changed since last processing and the existing PO files will get updated accordingly. If no translations exist yet, one "textdomain/xx.po" file will be created.

METHODS

  Constructors

Log::Report::Extract::PerlPPI->new(OPTIONS)
     -Option --Default
      charset  'utf-8'
      lexicon  <required>

    charset => STRING
        The character-set used in the PO files.

    lexicon => DIRECTORY
        The place where the lexicon is kept. When no lexicon is defined yet, this will be the directory where an "domain/xx.po" file will be created.

  Accessors

$obj->charset
    Returns the character-set used inside the POT files.

$obj->domains
    Returns a sorted list of all known domain names.

$obj->index
    Returns the Log::Report::Lexicon::Index object, which is listing the files in the lexicon directory tree.

  Processors

$obj->process(FILENAME, OPTIONS)
    Update the domains mentioned in the FILENAME. All textdomains defined in the file will get updated automatically, but not written before all files where processed.

     -Option --Default
      charset  'iso-8859-1'

    charset => STRING
$obj->showStats([DOMAINs])
    Show a status about the DOMAIN (by default all domains). At least mode verbose is required to see this.

$obj->write([DOMAIN])
    Update the information of the files related to DOMAIN, by default all processed DOMAINS. All information known about the DOMAIN is removed from the cache.
