:term:`I18N` is an important piece of any modern program.  Unfortunately,
setting up :term:`i18n` in your program is often a confusing process.  The
functions provided here aim to make the programming side of that a little
easier.

Most projects will be able to do something like this when they startup::

# myprogram/__init__.py:

import os
    import sys

from kitchen.i18n import easy_gettext_setup

_, N_  = easy_gettext_setup('myprogram', localedirs=(
            os.path.join(os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__)), 'locale'),
            os.path.join(sys.prefix, 'lib', 'locale')
            ))

Then, in other files that have strings that need translating::

# myprogram/commands.py:

from myprogram import _, N_

def print_usage():
        print _(u"""available commands are:
        --help              Display help
        --version           Display version of this program
        --bake-me-a-cake    as fast as you can
            """)

def print_invitations(age):
        print _('Please come to my party.')
        print N_('I will be turning %(age)s year old',
            'I will be turning %(age)s years old', age) % {'age': age}

See the documentation of :func:`easy_gettext_setup` and
:func:`get_translation_object` for more details.

class DummyTranslations(object, gettext.NullTranslations):
    '''Safer version of :class:`gettext.NullTranslations`

This Translations class doesn't translate the strings and is intended to
    be used as a fallback when there were errors setting up a real
    Translations object.  It's safer than :class:`gettext.NullTranslations` in
    its handling of byte :class:`str` vs :class:`unicode` strings.

Unlike :class:`~gettext.NullTranslations`, this Translation class will
    never throw a :exc:`~exceptions.UnicodeError`.  The code that you have
    around a call to :class:`DummyTranslations` might throw
    a :exc:`~exceptions.UnicodeError` but at least that will be in code you
    control and can fix.  Also, unlike :class:`~gettext.NullTranslations` all
    of this Translation object's methods guarantee to return byte :class:`str`
    except for :meth:`ugettext` and :meth:`ungettext` which guarantee to
    return :class:`unicode` strings.

When byte :class:`str` are returned, the strings will be encoded according
    to this algorithm:

1) If a fallback has been added, the fallback will be called first.
       You'll need to consult the fallback to see whether it performs any
       encoding changes.
    2) If a byte :class:`str` was given, the same byte :class:`str` will
       be returned.
    3) If a :class:`unicode` string was given and :meth:`set_output_charset`
       has been called then we encode the string using the
       :attr:`output_charset`
    4) If a :class:`unicode` string was given and this is :meth:`gettext` or
       :meth:`ngettext` and :attr:`_charset` was set output in that charset.
    5) If a :class:`unicode` string was given and this is :meth:`gettext`
       or :meth:`ngettext` we encode it using 'utf-8'.
    6) If a :class:`unicode` string was given and this is :meth:`lgettext`
       or :meth:`lngettext` we encode using the value of
       :func:`locale.getpreferredencoding`

For :meth:`ugettext` and :meth:`ungettext`, we go through the same set of
    steps with the following differences:

* We transform byte :class:`str` into :class:`unicode` strings for
      these methods.
    * The encoding used to decode the byte :class:`str` is taken from
      :attr:`input_charset` if it's set, otherwise we decode using
      :term:`UTF-8`.

.. attribute:: input_charset

is an extension to the |stdlib|_ :mod:`gettext` that specifies what
        charset a message is encoded in when decoding a message to
        :class:`unicode`.  This is used for two purposes:

1) If the message string is a byte :class:`str`, this is used to decode
       the string to a :class:`unicode` string before looking it up in the
       :term:`message catalog`.
    2) In :meth:`~kitchen.i18n.DummyTranslations.ugettext` and
       :meth:`~kitchen.i18n.DummyTranslations.ungettext` methods, if a byte
       :class:`str` is given as the message and is untranslated this is used
       as the encoding when decoding to :class:`unicode`.  This is different
       from :attr:`_charset` which may be set when a :term:`message catalog`
       is loaded because :attr:`input_charset` is used to describe an encoding
       used in a python source file while :attr:`_charset` describes the
       encoding used in the :term:`message catalog` file.

Any characters that aren't able to be transformed from a byte :class:`str`
    to :class:`unicode` string or vice versa will be replaced with
    a replacement character (ie: ``u'�'`` in unicode based encodings, ``'?'`` in other
    :term:`ASCII` compatible encodings).

            For information about what methods are available and what they do.

        * Although we had adapted :meth:`gettext`, :meth:`ngettext`,
          :meth:`lgettext`, and :meth:`lngettext` to always return byte
          :class:`str`, we hadn't forced those byte :class:`str` to always be
          in a specified charset.  We now make sure that :meth:`gettext` and
          :meth:`ngettext` return byte :class:`str` encoded using
          :attr:`output_charset` if set, otherwise :attr:`charset` and if
          neither of those, :term:`UTF-8`.  With :meth:`lgettext` and
          :meth:`lngettext` :attr:`output_charset` if set, otherwise
          :func:`locale.getpreferredencoding`.
        * Make setting :attr:`input_charset` and :attr:`output_charset` also
          set those attributes on any fallback translation objects.

:class:`gettext.GNUTranslations` suffers from two problems that this

       :meth:`gettext.GNUTranslations.ugettext` if the message being

    4) If a :class:`unicode` string was given and this is :meth:`gettext`

    '''Get a translation object bound to the :term:`message catalogs`

:arg domain: Name of the message domain.  This should be a unique name
        that can be used to lookup the :term:`message catalog` for this app or
        library.
    :kwarg localedirs: Iterator of directories to look for
        :term:`message catalogs` under.  The directories are searched in order
        for :term:`message catalogs`.  For each of the directories searched,
        we check for message catalogs in any language specified
        in:attr:`languages`.  The :term:`message catalogs` are used to create
        the Translation object that we return.  The Translation object will
        attempt to lookup the msgid in the first catalog that we found.  If
        it's not in there, it will go through each subsequent catalog looking
        for a match.  For this reason, the order in which you specify the
        :attr:`localedirs` may be important.  If no :term:`message catalogs`
        are found, either return a :class:`DummyTranslations` object or raise
        an :exc:`IOError` depending on the value of :attr:`fallback`.
        Rhe default localedir from  :mod:`gettext` which is
        :file:`os.path.join(sys.prefix, 'share', 'locale')` on Unix is
        implicitly appended to the :attr:`localedirs`, making it the last
        directory searched.
    :kwarg languages: Iterator of language codes to check for
        :term:`message catalogs`.  If unspecified, the user's locale settings
        will be used.

.. seealso:: :func:`gettext.find` for information on what environment
            variables are used.

:kwarg class_:  The class to use to extract translations from the
        :term:`message catalogs`.  Defaults to :class:`NewGNUTranslations`.
    :kwarg fallback: If set to data:`False`, raise an :exc:`IOError` if no
        :term:`message catalogs` are found.  If :data:`True`, the default,
        return a :class:`DummyTranslations` object.
    :kwarg codeset: Set the character encoding to use when returning byte
        :class:`str` objects.  This is equivalent to calling
        :meth:`~gettext.GNUTranslations.output_charset` on the Translations
        object that is returned from this function.
    :return: Translation object to get :mod:`gettext` methods from

If you need more flexibility than :func:`easy_gettext_setup`, use this
    function.  It sets up a :mod:`gettext` Translation object and returns it
    to you.  Then you can access any of the methods of the object that you
    need directly.  For instance, if you specifically need to access
    :func:`~gettext.GNUTranslations.lgettext`::

translations = get_translation_object('foo')
        translations.lgettext('My Message')

This function is similar to the |stdlib|_ :func:`gettext.translation` but
    makes it better in two ways

1. It returns :class:`NewGNUTranslations` or :class:`DummyTranslations`
        objects by default.  These are superior to the
        :class:`gettext.GNUTranslations` and :class:`gettext.NullTranslations`
        objects because they are consistent in the string type they return and
        they fix several issues that can causethe |stdlib|_ objects to throw
        :exc:`UnicodeError`.
    2. This function takes multiple directories to search for
        :term:`message catalogs`.

The latter is important when setting up :mod:`gettext` in a portable
    manner.  There is not a common directory for translations across operating
    systems so one needs to look in multiple directories for the translations.
    :func:`get_translation_object` is able to handle that if you give it
    a list of directories to search for catalogs::

translations = get_translation_object('foo', localedirs=(
             os.path.join(os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__)), 'locale'),
             os.path.join(sys.prefix, 'lib', 'locale')))

This will search for several different directories:

1. A directory named :file:`locale` in the same directory as the module
       that called :func:`get_translation_object`,
    2. In :file:`/usr/lib/locale`
    3. In :file:`/usr/share/locale` (the fallback directory)

This allows :mod:`gettext` to work on Windows and in development (where the
    :term:`message catalogs` are typically in the toplevel module directory)
    and also when installed under Linux (where the :term:`message catalogs`
    are installed in :file:`/usr/share/locale`).  You (or the system packager)
    just need to install the :term:`message catalogs` in
    :file:`/usr/share/locale` and remove the :file:`locale` directory from the
    module to make this work.  ie::

In development:
            ~/foo   # Toplevel module directory
            ~/foo/__init__.py
            ~/foo/locale    # With message catalogs below here:
            ~/foo/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/foo.mo

Installed on Linux:
            /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/foo
            /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/foo/__init__.py
            /usr/share/locale/  # With message catalogs below here:
            /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/foo.mo

.. note::

This function will setup Translation objects that attempt to lookup
        msgids in all of the found :term:`message catalogs`.  This means if
        you have several versions of the :term:`message catalogs` installed
        in different directories that the function searches, you need to make
        sure that :attr:`localedirs` specifies the directories so that newer
        :term:`message catalogs` are searched first.  It also means that if
        a newer catalog does not contain a translation for a msgid but an
        older one that's in :attr:`localedirs` does, the translation from that
        older catalog will be returned.

.. versionchanged:: kitchen-1.1.0 ; API kitchen.i18n 2.1.0
        Add more parameters to :func:`~kitchen.i18n.get_translation_object` so
        it can more easily be used as a replacement for
        :func:`gettext.translation`.  Also change the way we use localedirs.
        We cycle through them until we find a suitable locale file rather
        than simply cycling through until we find a directory that exists.
        The new code is based heavily on the |stdlib|_
        :func:`gettext.translation` function.

Setting up :mod:`gettext` can be a little tricky because of lack of
    documentation.  This function will setup :mod:`gettext`  using the 
    `Class-based API
    <http://docs.python.org/library/gettext.html#class-based-api>`_ for you.
    For the simple case, you can use the default arguments and call it like
    this::

_, N_ = easy_gettext_setup()

This will get you two functions, :func:`_` and :func:`N_` that you can use
    to mark strings in your code for translation.  :func:`_` is used to mark
    strings that don't need to worry about plural forms no matter what the
    value of the variable is.  :func:`N_` is used to mark strings that do need
    to have a different form if a variable in the string is plural.

.. seealso::

:doc:`api-i18n`
            This module's documentation has examples of using :func:`_` and :func:`N_`
        :func:`get_translation_object`
            for information on how to use :attr:`localedirs` to get the
            proper :term:`message catalogs` both when in development and when
            installed to FHS compliant directories on Linux.

.. note::

The gettext functions returned from this function should be superior
        to the ones returned from :mod:`gettext`.  The traits that make them
        better are described in the :class:`DummyTranslations` and
        :class:`NewGNUTranslations` documentation.
