on Windows:

1. install Python (3.8.x)
2. open Powershell in project folder
3. virtualenv and activate it
4. run app from Powershell:

pip install -r requirements.txt
set FLASK-APP=main.py
flask run

Note: below commands should be executed in a terminal opened in the project root folder (i.e. where main.py is) Important: Activate the virtualenv you use for the project first!

Using flask-babel: First get all the strings that need to be translated (marked using {{ _("Texte") }} in templates and python code)

pybabel extract -F babel.cfg -k _l -o messages.pot .

this file "messages.pot" does not need to be included in the repo! It is just an intermediate result

Now generate translations for each supported language (de, it, fr)

/!\ this command overwrites your old translations! I.e. make sure you have saved them elsewhere if you want to reuse.

pybabel init -i messages.pot -d app/translations -l de
pybabel init -i messages.pot -d app/translations -l fr
pybabel init -i messages.pot -d app/translations -l it

once you made the translations in the .po files, compile to usable files (.mo):

pybabel compile -d app/translations compiling catalog app/translations/de/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po to app/translations/de/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo
pybabel compile -d app/translations compiling catalog app/translations/it/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po to app/translations/it/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo
pybabel compile -d app/translations compiling catalog app/translations/fr/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po to app/translations/fr/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo

to update the .po files (i.e. if you want to keep your previous work), use the following commands to update

pybabel extract -F babel.cfg -k _l -o messages.pot .
pybabel update -i messages.pot -d app/translations

do your translation work and then update the .mo files just like before:

pybabel compile -d app/translations compiling catalog app/translations/de/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po to app/translations/de/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo
pybabel compile -d app/translations compiling catalog app/translations/it/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po to app/translations/it/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo
pybabel compile -d app/translations compiling catalog app/translations/fr/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po to app/translations/fr/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo

Works on version 2.7.
