Calculate completion with POT files structure

You can calculate the progress against source (template) files by using --pot flag.

$ potodo --pot ../cpython/Doc/build/gettext

Handling reservations

To avoid having two translators work on the same file at the same time, one can tell other translations that a file is being translated using an issue or a draft pull request.

potodo can fetch those issues and display it. It currently work with Gitea and Github.

For example, in a clone of python-docs-fr you can run:

potodo --api-url 'https://git.afpy.org/api/v1/repos/AFPy/python-docs-fr/issues?state=open' howto/

For github it would look like --api-url 'https://api.github.com/repos/ORGANISATION/REPOSITORY/issues?state=open'.

It's a bit verbose, so maybe hide this in a Makefile or whatever, but this way you can tweak the parameters of the query, typically to filter on a label if needed.

The way potodo maps issues to files is simple: the path of the file just has to be present in the issue title, so any issues like:

• I'm currently working on faq/extending.po
• Je travaille sur extending/index.po
• blah blah library/functions.po blah blah

will correctly match their file.

Development setup

Create a virtual environment:

python3 -m venv .venv

Activate it:

source .venv/bin/activate

Install the dev requirements:

pip install -e .[dev]

Optionally install the pre-commit hooks:

pre-commit install
