-----

[](#usage)

// Add visitors
$fileExtractor->addVisitor(new ContainerAwareTrans());
$fileExtractor->addVisitor(new ContainerAwareTransChoice());
$fileExtractor->addVisitor(new FlashMessage());
$fileExtractor->addVisitor(new FormTypeChoices());

// Add the file extractor to Extactor

```

Found an issue?
---------------

[](#found-an-issue)

Is it something we do not extract? Please add it as a test. Add a new file with your example code in `tests/Resources/Github/Issue_XX.php`, then edit the `AllExtractorsTest` to make sure the translation key is found:

```
// ...
$this->translationExists($sc, 'trans.issue_xx');
```
