💅 po2tiki — NAME ✨

okay bestie, meet po2tiki — it's a little command from the Translate Toolkit (you know, po2tiki(1), section 1, the real ones) and what it does is convert Gettext PO files into TikiWiki's language.php files. that's it, that's the job. no cap. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

po2tiki [--version] [-h|--help] [--manpage] [--progress PROGRESS]
[--errorlevel ERRORLEVEL] [-i|--input] INPUT [-x|--exclude EXCLUDE]
[-o|--output] OUTPUT [-S|--timestamp]

like… yeah, it's a lot of brackets. but every single one of them eats, i promise. 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the docs are living over at:

http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/translate-
toolkit/en/latest/commands/tiki2po.html

and that's where the examples and the usage instructions live. the manual page itself is just gonna point you there, and honestly? iconic behaviour. go read it, bestie. 📖

👑 OPTIONS 👑

one bullet = one flag. i'm not skipping a single one, that's the vibe check and we're passing it:

  • --version — shows the program's version number and then bounces (exits). 💫
  • -h/--help — prints this help message and exits. the classic. the main character. 🩷
  • --manpage — spits out a manpage based on the help. manpage-ception, lowkey obsessed. 📜
  • --progress — shows progress as one of: dots, none, bar, names, verbose. pick your fave, all five are valid. 🔥
  • --errorlevel — shows errorlevel as one of: none, message, exception, traceback. dial the drama to your comfort level. 😭
  • -i/--input — read from INPUT, in po and pot formats. 🍓
  • -x/--exclude — excludes names matching EXCLUDE from the input paths. bye felicia 👋
  • -o/--output — writes to OUTPUT in tiki format. 💅
  • -S/--timestamp — skips the conversion if the output file already has a newer timestamp. so efficient of it. ⭐
heads up bestie: anything the original didn't spell out, i'm not gonna invent. if it's not on this list, it's simply not here. periodt. 🫡

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

there isn't a SEE ALSO section in this one, but the DESCRIPTION did hand you a link, so technically that's your one and only cross-reference:

and that's the whole page, bestie — this little rewrite is brought to you by Translate Toolkit 3.19.5, the exact same version the original <pink>po2tiki(1)</pink> page was stamped with. same facts, way cuter font energy. go convert some PO files, you got this. 💖✨🎀
