Having spent a little time battling the details around updating the POT files automatically, I think I finally have it working. I thought I would share the script so others don't have to go through the same battles. This is far from elegant, and a variant of the build script I posted on the wiki. But there are a few little details. In this case I again updated the po's individually. In the case of the build I wanted the logs. In this case, it prevents me from having to build long strings of languages for git add and update_po. Note that since I am pushing back to git, I use the ssh:// clone variant instead of git:// Script below --McD #!/bin/sh # # Script to update POT and PO files and push # back to git # # ---------------------------------------------------------- # Modify the following variables for your situation # # List of subdirectories to ignore NOLANGS="build tmp pot po publican.cfg README en-US" # Scratch directory on local machine for work WORKDIR="/home/jjmcd/Projects/Release-Notes/F13/makepot" # Document to build *** NOTE ** If your document is not # in the docs/ subtree in git, you will need to modify # the git clone statement below DOC="release-notes" # # End of variables to modify # ---------------------------------------------------------- # # Move to scratch directory cd $WORKDIR # and clean it out rm -Rf * # Let's check how long this takes echo "Start " `date` >time.txt git clone ssh://git.fedorahosted.org/git/docs/$DOC.git pushd $DOC cp -R en-US .. git checkout --track -b f13 origin/f13 rm -Rf en-US mv ../en-US . rm -Rf pot publican update_pot git add en-US/ pot/ # For all subdirectories for LANG in * ; do # Figure out whether this one is one of those to ignore DOIT=1 for TEST in $NOLANGS do if [ $LANG == $TEST ] ; then DOIT=0 fi done # Do this directory if [ $DOIT == 1 ] then publican update_po --lang=${LANG} git add ${LANG}/ fi done git commit -m "Updated POT files" git push origin f13 popd # And now the finish time echo " End " `date` >>time.txt -- docs mailing list docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/docs
