[cc-devel] Converting CC translation strings from Transifex to PHP-usable format

[Tarmo Toikkanen]

Hi developers!

Is someone aware of a nice library or script that can convert CC translation strings from Transifex to a format usable in PHP?s i18n framework? Specifically the placeholders are marked differently in the Transifex strings and in PHP, so they need to be rewritten. Is there a tool to do this already?

Hi Tarmo,

Could you elaborate? I can easily download the strings in one language
useable using the PHP gettext functionality.

If you are looking to replace the paramaters that CC build in
like: %(lookup_uri)s you would have to build something yourrself because
that is part of the python framework that is used. It would be relatively
simple to create a script that goes through every line in the .po file and
replaces %(..)s with something in an array.

I don't seem to be able to find where they replace these in the python
files on github though.

Best,

Maarten

Yep, basically I?m looking for a function that someone?s already made to convert python placeholders to PHP placeholders. Coding it by hand seems silly if it?s already been made. And I do know that the Python placeholders may have various syntaxes, so using a properly coded piece of code seems better than coding my own solution example by example. But if no-one?s ever needed this before (which I find a bit unlikely), I guess I need to do it...

Hi Tarmo,

Well this mailinglist is 1. not very active and 2. more specialised in the
infrastructure of creative commons tech. This seems more like a general
programming question. You might want to have a look at:

Cheers,
