✨ po2odf — it's giving "PO files but make them fancy documents" 💅

okay so bestie, real quick: this is a page from the Translate Toolkit (version 3.19.5, iconic), and it's all about a lil command called po2odf. Buckle up, it's actually so good.

🌸 NAME 🌸

po2odf — the girl whose whole job is converting Gettext PO localization files into OpenDocument (ODF) files. no cap. that's it, that's the gig. 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

po2odf [--version] [-h|--help] [--manpage] [--progress PROGRESS]
[--errorlevel ERRORLEVEL] [-i|--input] INPUT [-x|--exclude EXCLUDE]
[-o|--output] OUTPUT [-t|--template TEMPLATE] [-S|--timestamp]

like yes she takes all of those. she's a main character, she's got options. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the tea is: this converter literally smooshes together the functionality of po2xliff and xliff2odf so you can go from PO files straight to ODF files in one glow-up. no middleman, no extra steps, direct conversion, periodt. ✨

See: http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/translate-toolkit/en/latest/commands/ for examples and usage instructions. <- go look, there's literally so much there, iykyk 📚

💅 OPTIONS 💅

okay this is the part where we go one by one, and yes i'm doing every single one, because we don't skip. ever.

  • --version — shows the program's version number and then peaces out. exit stage left. 👋
  • -h/--help — shows this help message and exits. your classic "bestie explain yourself" button. 🙈
  • --manpage — outputs a manpage based on the help. meta? a little. iconic? absolutely. 👑
  • --progress — shows progress as one of: dots, none, bar, names, verbose. pick your vibe, she'll keep you posted. 📊
  • --errorlevel — shows errorlevel as one of: none, message, exception, traceback. how much drama do you want when things go sideways? your call. 💀
  • -i/--input — read from INPUT in po, pot formats. the source material, the moment, the whole point. 💖
  • -x/--exclude — exclude names matching EXCLUDE from input paths. sometimes you gotta be a little selective, and that's valid. 🚫
  • -o/--output — write to OUTPUT in odc, odf, odg, odi, odm, odp, ods, odt, otc, otf, otg, oth, oti, otp, ots, ott formats. sixteen formats, one queen. 🌈
  • -t/--template — read from TEMPLATE in odc, odf, odg, odi, odm, odp, ods, odt, otc, otf, otg, oth, oti, otp, ots, ott formats. same list as output, because she likes to match. ✨
  • -S/--timestamp — skip conversion if the output file has a newer timestamp. she checks the vibes before redoing work. smart girl behavior honestly. 🧚
tiny heads-up from your girl: -t/--template and -o/--output both take that exact same big ol' list of ODF-ish formats (odc, odf, odg, odi, odm, odp, ods, odt, otc, otf, otg, oth, oti, otp, ots, ott) — copy them exactly, don't be out here freelancing with format names. 💜

and that's the whole page bestie, every flag, every format, every crumb. nothing skipped, nothing invented. slay. 🎀

🌸💖 with love from the Translate Toolkit 3.19.5 era 💖🌸
