Supports babel 7.
Install

ornpm install --save babel-gettext-extractor
Node use
========
``js
var babel = require("babel");
babel.transform(code, { plugins:["babel-gettext-extractor"]});
`
Command line use

``
babel --plugins babel-gettext-extractor code.js
Options
=======
`js`
"plugins": [
[ "babel-gettext-extractor", {
"headers":
`js`
headers: {
"content-type": "text/plain; charset=UTF-8",
"plural-forms": "nplurals=2; plural=(n!=1);"
}
A list of function names to extract. The list is the definition of the
parameters: "domain", "msgctxt", "msgid", "msgid_plural" and"count"
example:
`js`
functionNames: {
myfunction: ["msgid"]
}
The filename where the end result is placed. If you supply a function, it will receive the current file babel is working
on and you can return the full path to where you want to save your translation template for this particular file.
example:
`javascript``
[
require("babel-gettext-extractor"),
{
fileName: (file) => {
const sourceFile = file.opts.sourceFileName;
if (/^node_modules\//.test(sourceFile)) {
return false;
}
return sourceFile
.split(/[\/\\.]/)
.filter(name => !['src', 'packages', 'js'].includes(name))
.slice(0, 2)
.join('-') + '-template.pot';
},
},
]
If provided, then file names are chopped off in relation to this base path
if filenames start with that path.
If true this will strip leading indents from multiline strings. Note: this
requires gettext function implementations to do the same leading indent removal.
Useful if you want to use Template literals for multiline strings to be passed
into to gettext functions.
