Excluding files from message extraction is under-documented (ignore) #124
Description
Activity
So, after quite some debugging, a rule to exclude "awesomepackage/contrib" must be written as such:
[ignore: contrib/**] [jinja2: **/templates/**.jinja2] encoding = utf-8 extensions=jinja2.ext.autoescape,jinja2.ext.with_ [python: **.py]If the babel.cfg, setup.cfg and "awesomepackage" are within the same directory.
Reacted by Greg Warner, sharkykh, Shannon Mulloy, Patrick van der Leer, Archie Norman, Dima Tisnek, Yura Yakimenko, Enric Caumons, Augustin LAVILLE, Ian Mitrofanov and 2 moreIs there a way for us to ignore the entire contrib folder but at the same time have [python: **.py] not look there either? If I have the following tree:
-app
--mod1
--static
----js
----css
----node_modulesId like to ignore the entire node_modules directory and not have
python:**.py check that directory. Is there a way for this?
The closest I got was:
[ignore: static/node_modules/] [jinja2: templates/**/**.html] encoding = utf-8 extensions=jinja2.ext.autoescape,jinja2.ext.with_ [python: **.py]However jinja2 and python are always checking into static even though it is ignored..
You can see this happening in the check_and_call_extract_file method of extract.py
for pattern, method in method_map: print (method,filename) <<< this shows you all the things it is trying to match I believeFor project using
pyproject.tomlas the configuration file, here is an example to exclude files:[tool.babel] [[tool.babel.mappings]] method = "ignore" pattern = ["tests/**.py", "dist/**.py", "build/**.py"] [[tool.babel.mappings]] method = "python" pattern = "**.py" encoding = "utf-8" keywords = ["_", "_l"]
I was trying to exclude a folder from message extraction through an ignore rule in the mapping file, and ended up having to read the source code to find out how to do it. Some of the questions that are not answered in the documentation are:
