Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

grunt-po2json

Convert PO files to JSON using Grunt.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-po2json --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-po2json');

The "po2json" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named po2json to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  po2json: {
    options: {
        format: 'raw'
    }
    all: {
      src: ['test/**/*.po'],
      dest: 'some/destination/path/'
    }
  },
})

Options

All of the options from po2json's parse method are exposed through the options object.

fuzzy

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Whether to include fuzzy translation in JSON or not. Should be either true or false

stringify

Type: Boolean Default value: false

If true, returns a JSON string. Otherwise returns a plain Javascript object.

pretty

Type: Boolean Default value: false

If true, the resulting JSON string will be pretty-printed. Has no effect when stringify is false.

format

Type: String Default value: raw

Either raw or jed. raw produces a "raw" JSON output, while jed produces an output that is 100% compatible with Jed.

domain

Type: String Default value: messages

The domain the messages will be wrapped inside. Only has effect if format: 'jed'.

nodeJs

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Wraps the JSON output in an export definition so it can be imported in Node.js.

requireJs

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Wraps the JSON output in an AMD definition so it can be imported by Require.js.

stringOnly

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Converts all instances of "id": [null, "str"] to "id": "str".

singleFile

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Instead of creating one file for each .po file, writes all .po files to a single file. Property dest will be used as path to the destination file. The right extension will be appended, unless you specify it by yourself.

Usage

This grunt task runs po2json on every file in src and writes the output file to the dest path.
