Create an index for a certain directory. If the directory does not exist or is empty, then the object will still be created.
All files the $directory tree which are recognized as an translation table format which is understood will be listed. Momentarily, those are:
=over
[0.99] Files which are in directories which start with a dot (hidden directories) and files which start with a dot (hidden files) are skipped.
Returns the directory name.
Add a certain file to the index. This method returns the $absolute path to that file, which must be used to access it. When not explicitly specified, the $absolute path will be calculated.
For internal use only. Force the creation of the index (if not already done). Returns a hash with key-value pairs, where the key is the lower-cased version of the filename, and the value the case-sensitive version of the filename.
Returned is a list of filenames which is used to update the list of MSGIDs when source files have changed. All translation files which belong to a certain $domain are listed.
The $extension filter can be used to reduce the filenames further, for
instance to select only po
, mo
or gmo
files, and ignore readme's.
Use an string, without dot and interpreted case-insensitive, or a
regular expression.
my @l = $index->list('my-domain'); my @l = $index->list('my-domain', 'po'); my @l = $index->list('my-domain', qr/^readme/i);
