[FIXED] how to generate po file from js file using poedit

Issue

i am using Gettext.js library to localize my contents generated from a JS file. Now the situation is, i have to create and write each and every po files manually. I know we can scan php files for gettext strings using PoEdit. So, is it possible to scan JS files for gettext strings using PoEdit?

Solution

Achieved this by creating a new parser of python language in PoEdit.

File > Preferences > Parsers > New

JS

List of extension:

*.js

Parser command:

xgettext --language=Python --force-po -o %o %C %K %F

Item in Keyword List:

Source code charset:

--from-code=%c
