______________________________________________________________________

This provides a [build hook](https://hatch.pypa.io/latest/config/build/#build-hooks) plugin for [Hatch](https://github.com/pypa/hatch) that compiles multi-lingual messages with GNU gettext's tools `msgfmt`. It can also (optionally) use `intltool` to:

- translate .xml and .desktop files
- search for left out files
- regenerate the .pot template
- display a status report for all translations

## Configuration

The [build hook plugin](https://hatch.pypa.io/latest/plugins/build-hook/) name is `gettext`.

### Calling the plugin

Modify `pyproject.toml` to include the plugin as a build dependency:

```toml
[build-system]
requires = ["hatchling", "hatch-gettext"]
build-backend = "hatchling.build"
```

### Compiling messages with msgfmt

This plugin requires `.mo` files be created; it also requires that the directory storing them is within the project's base directory, and is not equal to the project's base directory or the directory in which `po` files are sourced. The mo file directory is set using `locale-directory`, which is required.

For example, for a project named `myproject`, and a src layout `src/myproject`, an acceptable directory in which to store the `LC_MESSAGES/myproject.mo` files would be `src/myproject/locale`

```toml
[tool.hatch.build.hooks.gettext]
locale-directory = "src/myproject/locale"
```

Optionally, specify values for the gexttext output name and the source directory where po files are found:

```toml
[tool.hatch.build.hooks.gettext]
locale-directory = "src/myproject/locale"
i18n-name = "myproject" 
po-directory = "po-files"
```

If `i18n-name` is not specified, the `name` in `[project]` in the `pyproject.toml` is used. If `po-directory` is not specified, the directory `po` is used.

### Identifying left out files using intltool-update

With every source distribution (sdist) build, to search for left out files, which should have been listed in `POTFILES.in` or `POTFILES.skip`, set `identify-left-out` to true (the default value is false):

```toml
[tool.hatch.build.hooks.gettext]
locale-directory = "src/myproject/locale"
identify-left-out = true
```

### Regenerating the .pot template using intltool-update

To regenerate the .pot template with every sdist build, set `regenerate-template` to true (the default value is false):

```toml
[tool.hatch.build.hooks.gettext]
locale-directory = "src/myproject/locale"
regenerate-template = true
```

### Displaying a status report using intltool-update

To display a status report for all translations, set `show-report` to true (the default value is false):

```toml
[tool.hatch.build.hooks.gettext]
locale-directory = "src/myproject/locale"
show-report = true
```

### Translating files using intltool-merge

This plugin allows for but does not mandate translating `.xml` and `.desktop` files using `intltool-merge`. Using `[tool.hatch.build.hooks.gettext.files]`, specify the destination directories for the translated files using keys, and arrays of source files as values. For example:

```toml
[tool.hatch.build.hooks.gettext.files]
"share/applications" = ["data/net.myproject.desktop.in"]
"share/solid/actions" = ["data/kde/net.myproject.desktop.in"]
"share/metainfo" = ["data/net.myproject.metainfo.xml.in"]
```

## Cleaning output files

The plugin includes logic to remove the files it outputs using hatch's `clean` hook. As well as individual files, any output directories created will also be removed, as long as these directories do not contain files created by something other than this plugin.
