VERSION

       version 0.98

SYNOPSIS

           $plugin = Locale::Maketext::Extract::Plugin::YAML->new(
               $lexicon            # A Locale::Maketext::Extract object
               @file_types         # Optionally specify a list of recognised file types
           )

           $plugin->extract($filename,$filecontents);

DESCRIPTION

       Extracts strings to localise from YAML files.

SHORT PLUGIN NAME

           yaml

VALID FORMATS

       Valid formats are:

       •

               key: _"string"

       •

               key: _'string'

       •

               key: _'string with embedded 'quotes''

       •

               key: |-
                    _'my folded
                    string
                    to translate'

           Note, the left hand side of the folded string must line up with the "_", otherwise
           YAML adds spaces at the beginning of each line.

       •

               key: |-
                    _'my block
                    string
                    to translate
                    '
           Note, you must use the trailing C<-> so that YAMl doesn't add a carriage
           return after your final quote.

KNOWN FILE TYPES

       .yaml
       .yml
       .conf

REQUIRES

       YAML

NOTES

       The docs for the YAML module describes it as alpha code. It is not as tolerant of errors
       as YAML::Syck. However, because it is pure Perl, it is easy to hook into.

       I have seen it enter endless loops, so if xgettext.pl hangs, try running it again with
       "--verbose --verbose" (twice) enabled, so that you can see if the fault lies with YAML.
       If it does, either correct the YAML source file, or use the file_types to exclude that
       file.

SEE ALSO

       xgettext.pl
           for extracting translatable strings from common template systems and perl source
           files.
