# ng2-translate-extract
Extract strings from projects using ng2-translate to json or pot files.
**THIS IS STILL VERY MUCH A WORK IN PROGRESS**
## Usage
If you only need to extract strings from one project, you can install the package locally:
`npm install @biesbjerg/ng2-translate-extract --save-dev`
Add the following `extract` script your project's `package.json`:
```
"scripts": {
"extract": "ng2-translate-extract --dir ./src --output ./ --format=json"
}
```
You can now run `npm run extract` to extract strings from your project's `src` dir. The extracted strings are saved in `JSON`-format in your project's root.
Modify the scripts arguments as required.
## Global install
You can also install the package globally:
`npm install @biesbjerg/ng2-translate-extract -g`
Now you can execute the script from everywhere:
`ng2-translate-extract --dir /extract/from/this/dir --output /save/to/this/dir --format json --merge --clean`
## Commandline arguments
