Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::YAML(3)




NAME

       Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::YAML - YAML format parser


SYNOPSIS

           $plugin = Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::YAML->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 YAML files.


SHORT PLUGIN NAME

           yaml


VALID FORMATS

       Valid formats are:

       o

               key: _"string"

       o

               key: _'string'

       o

               key: _'string with embedded 'quotes''

       o

               key: |-
                    _'my folded
                    string
                    to translate'

           Note, the left hand side of the folded string must line up with the
           "_", otherwise YAML adds spaces at the beginning of each line.

       o

               key: |-
                    _'my block
                    string
                    to translate
                    '
           Note, you must use the trailing C<-> so that YAMl doesn't add a carriage
           return after your final quote.


KNOWN FILE TYPES

       .yaml
       .yml
       .conf


REQUIRES

       YAML


NOTES

       The docs for the YAML module describes it as alpha code. It is not as
       tolerant of errors as YAML::Syck. However, because it is pure Perl, it
       is easy to hook into.

       I have seen it enter endless loops, so if xgettext.pl hangs, try
       running it again with "--verbose --verbose" (twice) enabled, so that
       you can see if the fault lies with YAML.  If it does, either correct
       the YAML source file, or use the file_types to exclude that file.


SEE ALSO

       xgettext.pl
           for extracting translatable strings from common template systems
           and perl source files.
