Not extracting strings from some files

[osleg]

I have a base.html file and navbar.html file.
The navbar.html is included in base.html and base extended in other templates.
The problem is that babel does not extract strings from navbar.html even though i can see it read it.

extraction log

babel.cfg

[jinja2: **.htm*]
encoding = utf-8
extensions=jinja2.ext.autoescape,jinja2.ext.with_

What could be the problem?

If you set slient=false under the [jinja2] section, you may get more information on why it's failing. I had the same problem and it turned out that I didn't have all the necessary jinja2 extensions registered (I was using webassets, which creates an {% assets %} tag.

Hope this helps!

@jessepollak I have an almost identical problem with formencode. How do you register the jinja2 extensions for pybabel extract?

Many thanks

Think I have it, I changed my config file to this:

[python: **.py]
[jinja2: templates/**.*]
extensions=jinja2.ext.autoescape,jinja2.ext.with_,formencode_jinja2.formfill

[jessepollak]

My config looks like this.

[jinja2: /templates/.html]
extensions=jinja2.ext.autoescape,jinja2.ext.with_,webassets.ext.jinja2.AssetsExtension,jinja2_highlight.highlight.HighlightExtension
encoding = utf-8
silent=false
[extractors]
jinja2 = jinja2.ext:babel_extract

@jessepollak thanks for the webassets hint. :)
