Support template literals about gettext-extractor HOT 3 CLOSED

I agree with that sentiment and I'll try to implement this in the coming days. It shouldn't be too difficult...

I have a question though, in your example, how would you actually retrieve the string containing ${startsOn} in the gettext function during execution? Because normally you'd just get the string after interpolation. So instead of Starts on ${startsOn} you'd get Starts on <value-of-startsOn>.

Support for template literals is now released under v3.3.0

Hey Lukas,

You are correct, my suggested use case does not work as the string would indeed be impossible to retrieve. I planned to use node-gettext to retrieve strings and hoped to use template strings as node-gettext does not provide this functionality.

I'll just use lodash's template function instead. I guess you could still support template literals for completeness' sake but other users might then try the same broken approach I suggested.

Anyway, thanks for your answer and thanks for maintaining this package!
