💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, poterminology — it reads a whole pile of .po or .pot files and cooks up a terminology file for you, spitting out a pootle-terminology.pot. that's the whole gig. 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

fr fr, go look at the docs — they've got examples and usage instructions and everything:

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

that's literally the whole description, no cap. 💅

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

  • --version — shows the program's version number and then dips out. bye 👋
  • -h/--help — prints this help message and exits, iconic behavior.
  • --manpage — outputs a manpage built from the help. manpage-ception, lowkey obsessed.
  • --progress — how you want progress shown: dots, none, bar, names, verbose. pick your vibe.
  • --errorlevel — how you want errors shown: none, message, exception, traceback. traceback is giving chaos but okay.
  • -i/--input — read from INPUT in po, pot formats. the source material ✨
  • -x/--exclude — exclude names matching EXCLUDE from input paths. not you, girl.
  • -o/--output — write to OUTPUT in po, pot formats. where the magic lands 💫
  • -u/--update — update terminology in UPDATEFILE.
  • -S/--stopword-list — read the stopword (a.k.a. term exclusion) list from STOPFILE. default is /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/translate/share/stoplist-en 🍓
  • -F/--fold-titlecase — folds "Title Case" down to lowercase. this is the default, periodt.
  • -C/--preserve-case — preserves ALL the uppercase/lowercase exactly as-is. main character energy for your caps.
  • -I/--ignore-case — makes every single term lowercase. no thoughts, just lowercase.
  • --accelerator — ignore the given accelerator characters when matching. those sneaky little &-type guys.
  • -t/--term-words — generate terms of up to LENGTH words. default is 3.
  • --nonstop-needed — omit terms with less than MIN nonstop words. default 1.
  • --inputs-needed — omit terms that show up in less than MIN input files. default 2, or 1 if there's only one input file.
  • --fullmsg-needed — omit full message terms appearing in less than MIN different messages. default 1.
  • --substr-needed — omit substring-only terms appearing in less than MIN different messages. default 2.
  • --locs-needed — omit terms appearing in less than MIN different original source files. default 2.
  • --sort — output sort order(s): frequency, dictionary, length. you can repeat this option! default is all of them, in exactly that order above.
  • --source-language — the source language code. default 'en' 💜
  • -v/--invert — inverts the source and target languages for terminology. plot twist 🌈
heads up bestie: a couple of these are quiet defaults that flip on you — --inputs-needed drops from 2 to 1 when there's only one input file, and -F/--fold-titlecase is already on unless you say otherwise. don't get caught out 🙈

okay that's the whole page, you ate. this was poterminology from Translate Toolkit 3.19.5 — mwah, go generate some terminology 💅🎀🦋
