Plural forms for downloaded and uploading PO-files. about locize-cli HOT 13 CLOSED

Can you try again but with setting i18n format to "other" in your locize project settings? If using default format (i18next) it will handle part after _ as context...I guess you're not using i18next as that format looks different -> so setting your project to other format should at least solve that issue.

from locize-cli.

I change project setting now it looks

But result not changed.
In locize:

"tied with %{count} other %{test_one} test": "à égalité avec %{count} other %{test_one} test",
"tied with %{count} other %{test_one} test_plural": "à égalité avec %{count} others %{test_one} test"

After download or sync:

msgctxt "one} test"
msgid "tied with% {count} other% {test"
msgid_plural "tied with% {count} other% {test"
msgstr [0] "à égalité avec% {count} other% {test_one} test"
msgstr [1] "à égalité avec% {count} others% {test_one} test"

from locize-cli.

Just had to confirm...detection of plural will automatically assume i18next format

We will need to see what we can do to avoid that handling...will ping you asap.

I checked the new version of locize-cli. The problem with "msgctxt" is fixed.
But there was a problem with plural forms.
Initially we have:

msgid "tied with %{count} other %{test_one} test"
msgid_plural "tied with %{count} others %{test_one} test"
msgstr [0] "à égalité avec %{count} other %{test_one} test"
msgstr [1] "à égalité avec %{count} others %{test_one} test"

The values ​​in "msgid" and "msgid_plural" are different.
After downloading or synchronization, the plural keys are as follows:

msgid "tied with %{count} other %{test_one} test"
msgid_plural "tied with %{count} other %{test_one} test"
msgstr [0] "à égalité avec %{count} other %{test_one} test"
msgstr [1] "à égalité avec %{count} others %{test_one} test"

And when we try to get the plural translation by the key "tied with %{count} others %{test_one} test" we do not find it.

May I ask what framework you're using for i18n? As I understand pluralforms in gettext (PHP) it's like the accepted reply here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12121515/multiple-plural-forms-in-gettext

msgid "%d Comment"
msgid_plural "%d Comments"
msgstr[0] "%d Komentarz"
msgstr[1] "%d Komentarze"
msgstr[2] "%d Komentarzy"

from locize-cli.

We use https://github.com/grosser/gettext_i18n_rails
Yea this is pluralforms in gettext.
msgid and msgid_plural values are different. gettext stores two key values plural and singular "%d Comment" and "%d Comments".

from locize-cli.

while I understand it stores two keys (for translators) in the po file - I'm not sure that the plural key / msgid_plural is needed for the lookup for translations? Is that really the case...I was in the believe it uses the msgid to find a key and takes the right form based on the index in msgstr...?

from locize-cli.

I can’t say exactly how pluralforms in gettext work. But at the moment I can’t get the pluralform translation in this case:
ns _ ('tied with %{count} other', 'tied with %{count} others', advocate_count) % {count: advocate_count}
After finding translated strings with gettext_i18n_rails, we see different keys in msgid and msgid_plural. And after downloading from locize, the keys become the same. I would like them to stay different.

from locize-cli.

The current big problem is that for non singular/plural language we store the pluralforms in JSON format with suffixed key_0, key_1, ... reflecting the index used in gettext msgstr - so in those cases we do only have the msgid (=key) in singular. And there is no way to get that msgid_plural.

Can't you just call: ns _ ('tied with %{count} other', 'tied with %{count} other', advocate_count) % {count: advocate_count} in that case?

We will have to think of a solution for this one...but currently, I have no idea how to solve this - as we do not have the plural key/msgid_plural.

from locize-cli.

The only way I currently see is adding an option to combine msgid and msgid_plural into one json key instead of using msgid only...will need to create a PR in an upstream module...might take a few days to get that through...

Thank you!
I'll wait.

msgid "tied with% {count} other% {test_one} test"
msgid_plural "tied with% {count} others% {test_one} test"
msgstr [0] "à égalité avec% {count} other% {test_one} test"
msgstr [1] "à égalité avec% {count} others% {test_one} test"

results now in JSON

"tied with% {count} other% {test_one} test|#|tied with% {count} others% {test_one} test": "à égalité avec% {count} other% {test_one} test",
"tied with% {count} other% {test_one} test|#|tied with% {count} others% {test_one} test_plural": "à égalité avec% {count} others% {test_one} test"

So we can convert po -> JSON (locize UI) -> po keeping the msgid_plural by merging that into the JSON key.
