[bgo#149800] Should provide a catalog for projects and .po files in a project

mrkara commented 7 years ago

It would be very usefull if gtranslator would have a catalog programm similar to kbabel catalog, but with some fixes for use with different .po file usage shemas. One example of such shema I have seen in debian-installer:

project has directories with subprojects
in each subproject there is a /po/ subdirectory that holds a .po file for each language and a template.pot file It should be easy to use this kind of system from a gtranslator catalog:
one should be able to add a project to his worklist by supplying a directory
the catalog should search for .po file in that directory (recoursive)
it should recognise this kind of directory structure
translator should be able to only see his language/languages .po files
if the .po files for his language doesn't exist in the directory, there should be an option to create it
the catalog should be able to see new /po/ directories and new files apearing in the project
there should be a cvs, svn and arch integration

It would be perfect, if it would be possible to translate a conglomeration of .po files from all of the project to cover the repeating strings. In fact the gtranslator catalog could very well be a simple separate programm.

Some interface ideas (Jose Dapena):

Adding a panel at the top of the treeview of items with some kind of information about the project. (Something like the evo does at the top of the folders).
Adding an expander to show info about the items.

There is some minor problem in the last patch. You forgot to include gio in a couple of files and you wrote gtk_file_chooser_get_file instead of gtk_file_chooser_get_filename.

JFYI, but the patch works fine in trunk. Good work.

Get file is in the new API, as we are not going to use this patch after bump to gtk+ 2.14 it is not going to work without gtk+ >= 2.14. gtk_file_chooser_get_filename. JFYI, but the patch works fine in trunk. Good work.
