+ <brief_description>
+ Plugin for adding custom parsers to extract strings that are to be translated from custom files (.csv, .json etc.).
+ </brief_description>
+ <description>
+ Plugins are registered via [method EditorPlugin.add_translation_parser_plugin] method. To define the parsing and string extraction logic, override the [method parse_text] method in script.
+ The extracted strings will be written into a POT file selected by user under "POT Generation" in "Localization" tab in "Project Settings" menu.
+ Below shows an example of a custom parser that extracts strings in a CSV file to write into a POT.
+ [codeblock]
+ tool
+ extends EditorTranslationParserPlugin
+
+ func parse_text(text, extracted_strings):
+ var split_strs = text.split(",", false, 0)
+ for s in split_strs:
+ extracted_strings.append(s)
+ #print("Extracted string: " + s)
+
+ func get_recognized_extensions():
+ return ["csv"]
