🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so the actual tea ☕ on examples and usage instructions? it's over here:

http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/translate-toolkit/en/latest/commands/web2py2po.html

go look, iykyk. that's the page they're pointing you at, no cap. 👑

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

here's where it gets iconic, every single flag, no skipping, periodt:

  • --version — shows the program's version number and then dips out. bye 👋
  • -h/--help — prints this help message and exits. the classic.
  • --manpage — spits out a manpage built from the help. manpage-ception fr fr 📜
  • --progress — shows progress, and you pick the flavour: dots, none, bar, names, verbose. choose your fighter 💅
  • --errorlevel — how loud do you want the errors? options are: none, message, exception, traceback. pick your drama level 😭
  • -i/--input — reads from INPUT in po, pot formats. feed it 📥
  • -x/--exclude — excludes names matching EXCLUDE from the input paths. not today, file 🚫
  • -o/--output — writes to OUTPUT in py format. glow up complete ✨
  • -S/--timestamp — skips the conversion if the output file has a newer timestamp. if it's fresher than you, it's not doing the work 💀
  • --threshold — only converts files where the translation completion is above PERCENT. so if it's not translated enough? not invited to the party 🎈
  • --fuzzy — uses translations marked fuzzy. yes, even the messy ones 🫶
  • --nofuzzy — doesn't use translations marked fuzzy. this one's the default, bestie, so that's what you get if you say nothing 🌈
lowkey important: --nofuzzy is the default. if you want the fuzzy ones you gotta ask, okay? 🙈

and that's the whole page!! every flag, every value, every default, all present and accounted for, we ate and left no crumbs 👑💖

this was brought to you by the Translate Toolkit 3.18.0 — mwah, kiss the version number for me 😘

stay slay, go convert some PO files, and remember: fuzzy is opt-in 🧚✨
