NAME

       Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::TT2 - Template Toolkit format parser


SYNOPSIS

           $plugin = Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::TT2->new(
               $lexicon            # A Locale::Maketext::Extract object
               @file_types         # Optionally specify a list of recognised file types
           )

           $plugin->extract($filename,$filecontents);


DESCRIPTION

       Extracts strings to localise from Template Toolkit templates.


SHORT PLUGIN NAME

           tt2


VALID FORMATS

       Valid formats are:

       [% |l(args) %]string[% END %]
       [% 'string' | l(args) %]
       [% l('string',args) %]

       l and loc are interchangable.

       | and FILTER are interchangable.


KNOWN FILE TYPES

       .tt
       .tt2
       .html
       .tt.*

REQUIRES

       Template


NOTES

       o   BEWARE Using the "loc" form can give false positives if you use the
           Perl parser plugin on TT files.  If you want to use the "loc" form,
           then you should specify the file types that you want to the Perl
           plugin to parse, or enable the default file types, eg:

              xgetext.pl -P perl ....        # default file types
              xgettext.pl -P perl=pl,pm  ... # specified file types

       o   The string-to-be-localised must be a string, not a variable. We try
           not to extract calls to your localise function which contain
           variables eg:

               l('string',arg)  # extracted
               l(var,arg)       # not extracted

           This doesn't work for block filters, so don't do that. Eg:

               [%  FILTER l %]
                  string [% var %]      # BAD!
               [% END %]

       o   Getting the right line number is difficult in TT. Often it'll be a
           range of lines, or it may be thrown out by the use of PRE_CHOMP or
           POST_CHOMP.  It will always be within a few lines of the correct
           location.

       o   If you have PRE/POST_CHOMP enabled by default in your templates,
           then you should extract the strings using the same values.  In
           order to set them, you can use the following wrapper script:

              #!/usr/bin/perl

              use Locale::Maketext::Extract::Run qw(xgettext);
              use Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::TT2();

              %Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::TT2::PARSER_OPTIONS = (
                   PRE_CHOMP  => 1, # or 2
                   POST_CHOMP => 1, # or 2

                   # Also START/END_TAG, ANYCASE, INTERPOLATE, V1DOLLAR, EVAL_PERL
              );

              xgettext(@ARGV);

       which made this possible.
