# Tool to generate messages.pot
# Extended to replace the old Makefile rule which did not port easily to CMake

# This script was originally motivated to work around a quirk (or bug depending on your viewpoint)
# of the xgettext command. See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gettext/2014-11/msg00006.html.
# However, it turns out that even if that quirk did not exist we would still need something like
# this script to properly extract descriptions. That's because we need to normalize the strings to
# a format that xgettext will handle correctly. Also, `xgettext -LShell` doesn't correctly extract
# all the strings we want translated. So we extract and normalize all such strings into a format
# that `xgettext` can handle.

# Start with the C++ source
xgettext -k -k_ -kN_ -LC++ --no-wrap -o messages.pot src/*.cpp src/*.h

# This regex handles descriptions for `complete` and `function` statements. These messages are not
# particularly important to translate. Hence the "implicit" label.
set -l implicit_regex '(?:^| +)(?:complete|function).*? (?:-d|--description) (([\'"]).+?(?<!\\\\)\\2).*'

# This regex handles explicit requests to translate a message. These are more important to translate
# than messages which should be implicitly translated.
set -l explicit_regex '.*\( *_ (([\'"]).+?(?<!\\\\)\\2) *\).*'

# Create temporary directory for these operations. OS X `mktemp` is somewhat restricted, so this block
# works around that - based on share/functions/funced.fish.
