po-gettext-loader

library1.0.0jsnpmunverified

A webpack loader that converts GNU gettext PO files to JSON using gettext-parser. Version 1.0.0 is the latest stable release, published once. It integrates into webpack build pipelines for i18n workflows, outputting JSON that can be further processed by json-loader. Simpler than using gettext tools directly, but has no active maintenance or updates. Differentiates by offering a direct Webpack integration without additional configuration.

default

✓ import PoGettextLoader from 'po-gettext-loader'

✗ const PoGettextLoader = require('po-gettext-loader')

Webpack loaders are typically used in webpack config, not imported directly. This default export is the loader function.

Shows webpack configuration to load .po files, converting them to JSON then bundling.

// webpack.config.js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.po$/, use: [ { loader: 'json-loader' }, { loader: 'po-gettext-loader' } ] } ] } }; // Then import .po files: import translations from './messages.po';
