Add export capabilities for translations catalogs. #360

Open shulard opened 7 years ago

shulard commented 7 years ago

Hello,

I'm actually using Poedit to work on WordPress translations and it works really well 👍.

I'm also working on others kind of projects which are not using GetText translation files. Is there a way to export catalogs in another format than Po/Mo ?

For example working with Twig is great but exporting to Symfony translation catalog format can be a great addition. Same for Laravel framework which use PHP and JSON catalogs.

Don't know if it's on the roadmap but I'll be happy to know if I'm not the only one to request that feature 😄.

Why exporting instead of working with those non-PO formats, i.e. editing them directly?

In other words, is there a need to have the same translation strings in PO and in another format at the same time? E.g. extraction-related perhaps?

It'll be awesome to be able to work with that non-PO file formats ! I don't think there is a need to have the same two strings in two files at the same time.

Maybe the only use case I can think is to export translations to PO for translators then integrate the changes in the application and it's not the job of Poedit for me to handle that...

Well, that one is definitely on the roadmap (and for sooner rather than later, i.e. tentatively 2.1).

I'll be glad to help if possible 😄.

I'm trying to find a solution for editing i18next json files. Did the idea of editing files other than PO ever eventuate?

(Progress note: current versions of Poedit can edit XLIFF and JSON files.)
