Class MessageBundleTask

  org.apache.tools.ant.ProjectComponent
      org.apache.tools.ant.Task
          de.viaboxx.nlstools.tasks.MessageBundleTask

All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable

public class MessageBundleTask
extends org.apache.tools.ant.Task

Description: Generates the interface with message constants and property files (resource bundles) from the descriptions in a xml file.

Values for:

 writeProperties = true (=.properties), false, xml (=.xml)
 writeJson = true (=compressed .js file), false, pretty (formatted .js file)
 writeInterface = true (keys + bundle name), false, small_enum, small (bundle name only), Flex (ActionScript class), smallFlex (bundle name only)
  enum (keys + bundle name + enum of all keys), small_enum (bundle name + enum of all keys)
 

 This utility can generate:
 Properties: .properties, .xml
 JSON: .js
 SQL-Script: .sql
 Interface: .java
 

 overwrite = (default false)
 deleteOldFiles = (default true)
 

 debugMode = (default false) ignores translations and sets the key as label
 

 Configuration:
 bundles = the XML (or Excel)-bundles input file(s), separated by ;
 sourcePath = to write .java interface to
 propertyPath = to write .properties/.xml to
 toCharset = (optional, default: null) the charset, e.g. UTF-8, to write properties files
 jsonPath = to write .js to
 jsonFile = null or the hard-coded json file name
 sqlScriptDir = to write .sql to
 flexLayout=true: output format is "de_DE/path/bundle.properties"  (Adobe Flex directory format)
 flexLayout=false: output format is "path/bundle_de_DE.properties" (default, java style)
 preserveNewlines=true: newlines will *not* be escaped when writing properties files
 preserveNewlines=false: (default) newlines will be escaped when writing properties files
 allowedLocales: ';'-separated list of locales that should be written, all other locales will NOT be written, if empty, all locales are written.
 

 

Example:

 <taskdef name="msgbundle" classname="de.viaboxx.nlstools.tasks.MessageBundleTask">
 <classpath refid="maven.test.classpath"/>
 </taskdef>
 

 <msgbundle overwrite="true" bundles="src/main/bundles/Customer.xml;../utilities/base/src/main/bundles/Common.xml"
 writeProperties="true"
 writeJson="true"
 jsonPath="src\main\webapp\js"
 jsonFile="i18n"
 propertyPath="src\main\webapp\WEB-INF\classes"/>
