🌸 DESCRIPTION

okay so fr fr, there's a whole wiki-worth of lore waiting for you here:

http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/translate-toolkit/en/latest/commands/oo2po.html

that link? it's got examples and usage instructions, and it's literally the main character of this section. go read it bestie, i'm not gatekeeping. 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • --version — show program's version number and exit. (yes, the classic. bye.) 👋
  • -h/--help — show this help message and exit. your emotional support flag. 🫶
  • --manpage — output a manpage based on the help. manpage-ception, lowkey iconic. 📜
  • --progress — show progress as: dots, none, bar, names, verbose. pick your vibe. 🌈
  • --errorlevel — show errorlevel as: none, message, exception, traceback. choose how much you wanna know when things go sideways. 😭
  • -i/--input — read from INPUT in oo, sdf formats. this is where your file comes from, bestie. 📥
  • -x/--exclude — exclude names matching EXCLUDE from input paths. not today, bestie. 🙈
  • -o/--output — write to OUTPUT in po, pot formats. the after-glow-up destination. 💅
  • -S/--timestamp — skip conversion if the output file has newer timestamp. if the output's fresher than the input, we don't touch it. respect the calendar. ⏰
  • -P/--pot — output PO Templates (.pot) rather than PO files (.po). templates girlies rise. 🎀
  • -l/--language — set target language to extract from oo file (e.g. af-ZA). 🌍
  • --source-language — set source language code (default en-US). the og, the blueprint. ⭐
  • --nonrecursiveinput — don't treat the input oo as a recursive store. keep it shallow, keep it simple. 🧚
  • --duplicates — what to do with duplicate strings (identical source text): merge, msgctxt (default: 'msgctxt'). yes that's really the default, i'm not making it up. 💀
  • --multifile — how to split po/pot files (single, toplevel or onefile). one file? many files? you decide, bestie. 🍓
⚠️ quick vibe check: those defaults are defaults for a reason — --duplicates defaults to 'msgctxt', and --source-language defaults to en-US. don't come for me when they behave exactly like the docs said they would. 🔥

💜 that's the whole page, bestie
