Files-from parameter doesn't find files

[raspi]

If you use --files-from parameter pot-create doesn't find file(s).

 $VENV/bin/pot-create --config "lang.conf" --files-from locale-files.txt --output /dev/null
 Can not find file /home/raspi/projects/test/foo/__init__.py

That looks like a bug.

Looking at this and your other ticket I'm wondering what your are trying to do. Can you explain what the problem is you're trying to solve?

[raspi]

I'm trying to write shell script which updates main default.pot and after that all other locales of Pyramid application.

#!/bin/bash -e
export APP=$1
export HERE="$(dirname $(readlink -f "$0"))"
export PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1
export VENV="$HERE"

python3 -m venv $VENV

./rm_python_cache.sh

LOCALEFILES="$HERE/locale-files.txt"

echo "Generating file list.."
find "$HERE/$APP" -type f -iname "*.py" > "$LOCALEFILES"
find "$HERE/$APP" -type f -iname "*.pt" >> "$LOCALEFILES"

LOCALEDIR="$HERE/$APP/locale"
mkdir -p "$LOCALEDIR"
LOCALEPOT="$LOCALEDIR/default.pot"

strace -e trace=open $VENV/bin/pot-create --config "lang.conf" --files-from $LOCALEFILES --output "$LOCALEPOT"
#$VENV/bin/pot-create --config "lang.conf" --directory $APP/* --output "$LOCALEPOT"
echo ""

cd "$LOCALEDIR"

echo "Updating .po files.."
find . -type f -iname "*.po" -exec bash -c "echo 'file: {}'; msgmerge --update '{}' '$LOCALEPOT'" \;
echo ""

echo "Generating .mo files.."
find . -type f -iname "*.po" -print0 | while read -d '' -r file; do 
  MOFILE="${file%.*}.mo"
  echo "${file} -> $MOFILE"
  msgfmt "${file}" -o "$MOFILE" 
done
echo ""

echo "Listing files:"
find . -type f 
echo ""

cd -

echo "Done."

Doesn't https://github.com/wichert/lingua/blob/master/docs/examples/i18n.sh already do that?

[raspi]

I wasn't aware of that script. Sometimes I also need to add files to translatable filelist with certain rules and exclude or include some files. So that script is just very stripped down version.
