#18114: makemessages does not care about context in trans templatetag
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------
Reporter: tomaz.stucin@… | Owner: nobody
Type: Bug | Status: new
Component: Translations | Version: 1.4
Severity: Normal | Keywords: trans context, pgettext
Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 0

--------------------------------+-------------------------------------
We are working with translations and we have done the following
* we have 2 templates: template1.html and template2.html
* in template1 we have the following:
{{{
{trans 'contact' as trans_contact %}
}}}
* in template2 we have the following:
{{{
{trans 'contact' context 'suggestive' as trans_contact %}
}}}
* when we makemessages -a we get the following in the django.po file:
{{{
#: web/templates/web/template1.html:35
#: web/templates/web/template2.html:21
msgid "contact"
msgstr ""
}}}
- what we expect instead (in django.po) is actually:
{{{
#: web/templates/web/template1.html:35
msgid "contact"
msgstr ""
#: web/templates/web/template2.html:21
msgctxt "suggesttive"
msgid "contact"
msgstr ""
}}}
So it seems that the "django-admin.py makemessages -a" does not take into
account context in the trans templatetag (but it does process both trans
tag as can be seen in the comment)
If we write (anywhere in the code) the following:
{{{
from django.utils.translation import pgettext
test = pgettext('suggesttive', 'contact')
}}}
then the django.po content is as expected and if we translate the strings
(in django.po) and then render the template, the context is taken into
account and the translation on the webpage (produced from the template) is
as it should be, so the trans templatetag works as expected, just the
makemessages does not.
If this is a "feature" I apologize in advance.
