What’s this?

Ruby-GetText-Package is a Localization(L10n) Library and Tools which is
modeled after GNU gettext package.

The library converts the messages to localized messages properly using
client-side locale information. And the tools for developers support
to create, use, and modify localized the message files(message catalogs)
easily.

Features:

  • Simple APIs(similar GNU gettext)
  • rgettext command for creating po-files from files below:
    o ruby scripts
    o glade-2 XML file(.glade)
    o ERB file(.rhtml)
    o ActiveRecord (.rb)
  • rmsgfmt command for creating a mo-file from a po-file.
  • The po-file is compatible to GNU gettext.
    You can maintain these files to use GNU getext tools.
  • The mo-file is compatible to GNU gettext(msgfmt).
  • multi-textdomain supported.
    You can select two kind of textdomain’s scope:
    o A file base (default: recommanded)
    o A Class/Module base (GetText::Container, GetText::ErbContainer,
    GetText::Rails)
