ngx-translate-extract

Extract translatable (ngx-translate) strings and save as a JSON or Gettext pot file. Merges with existing strings if the output file already exists.

Usage

Install the package in your project:

npm install @biesbjerg/ngx-translate-extract --save-dev

Add an extract script to your project's package.json:

"scripts": {
  "extract": "ngx-translate-extract --input ./src --output ./src/assets/i18n/ --clean --sort --format namespaced-json"
}

You can now run npm run extract to extract strings.

Extract examples

Extract from dir and save to file

ngx-translate-extract -i ./src -o ./src/i18n/strings.json

Extract from multiple dirs

ngx-translate-extract -i ./src/folder-a ./src/folder-b -o ./src/i18n/strings.json

Extract and save to multiple files

ngx-translate-extract -i ./src -o ./src/i18n/{da,en,fr}.json

or

ngx-translate-extract -i ./src -o ./src/i18n/da.json ./src/i18n/en.json ./src/i18n/fr.json

or (update only)

ngx-translate-extract -i ./src -o ./src/i18n/*.json

or (update only)

Custom indentation

By default, tabs are used for indentation when writing extracted strings to json formats:

ngx-translate-extract -i ./src -o ./src/i18n/en.json --format-indentation $'\t'

If you want to use spaces instead, you can do the following:

ngx-translate-extract -i ./src -o ./src/i18n/en.json --format-indentation ' '

Mark strings for extraction using a marker function

If, for some reason, you want to extract strings not passed directly to TranslateService, you can wrap them in a custom marker function.

import { _ } from '@biesbjerg/ngx-translate-extract';

_('Extract me');

Add the marker argument when running the extract script:

ngx-translate-extract ... -m _

Modify the scripts arguments as required.
