First we have to load the terms on OpenERP.
Log on OpenERP and ensure you are in Technical Features group
Synchronize translations in
Settings -> Translations -> Application Terms -> Synchronize Terms
Then use the following command line to generate your po file:
server/openerp-server --log-level=error --i18n-export=/tmp/<lang>.po -l <lang_code> -d <database> --modules=<module_name>
Ex.
lang_code = fr_FR
lang = fr
Then you can use msgmerge to merge the new po file with an existing one.
Thanks for the tip, do you know for which versions does it work ?
This is what I use for v6.1 and v7 in a script.
If you can't run openerp but can only use it, go to
Settings -> Translations -> Import / Export -> Export Translation
and folow the step to extract your po file
This does not extract text from `_("Python code")`, only from XML files. Instead, Yannick Vaucher's method does.
