Bug 10492: Translation problems with TT directives in po files
This patch implements the replacement of TTvariables
'[%...%]' with normal placeholders '%s' for text
inside HTML tags (eg. img, meta, input)
The replacement is done in two files:
* xgettext.pl, used on create/update, so TTvars are not
found on the text to translate (msgid)
* tmpl_proccess3.pl, used on install time, so the correct
translation is found (msgstr) and the right TTvar is put on
the translated text.
To test:
Before applying the patch
1) Update your favorite language
cd misc/traslator
perl translate update xx-YY
2) Build a list (ini.txt) of 'msgid' to do a comparison
msgcat --no-wrap --use-first po/xx-YY-*po -o - | egrep "^msgid" | sort > ini.txt
3) Apply the patch
4) Update your favorite language, again
cd misc/traslator
perl translate update xx-YY
5) Build a final list (end.txt) of 'msgid' to do a comparison
msgcat --no-wrap --use-first po/xx-YY-*po -o - | egrep "^msgid" | sort > end.txt
6) Compare both files, you must find (most) TTvars replaced by '%s'
diff ini.txt end.txt
for example:
< msgid "Translate item type [% itemtype.itemtype | html %]"
> msgid "Translate item type %s"
< msgid "Holds on this item: [% item_loo.item_holds | html %] / Total holds on this record: [% item_loo.holds | html -%]"
> msgid "Holds on this item: %s / Total holds on this record: %s"
< msgid "tag_anchor_[% innerloo.tag | html %]_[% innerloo.index | html %][% innerloo.random | html %]"
> msgid "tag_anchor_%s_%s%s"
< msgid "[% innerloo.tag_lib | html %] - Click to Expand this Tag"
> msgid "%s - Click to Expand this Tag"
7) Translate one of the examples, with more than one variable if
possible, for example this text in xx-YY-staff-prog.po
> msgid "Holds on this item: %s / Total holds on this record: %s"
Check it's not marked as 'fuzzy'
8) Apply the translation
perl translate install xx-YY
9) Check the translated string has all variables in the right order
edit koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/es-ES/modules/tools/batchMod-edit.tt
around line '187', first '[% item_loo.item_holds | html %]', then
'[% item_loo.holds | html -%]' on this case,
or use another example
If approved this patch can be backported to current stable
versions.
