Running vue-gettext-extract produces *.po, *.pot but no translations.json file?
Closed this issue · 2 comments
Good day,
Not sure if I found a bug for the latest version or not. Like the title states I get the required po and pot files created but the translations.json file remains empty. Naturally running the vue-gettext-compile
command fails with an error: no language headers found.
Here's my gettext.config.js
file:
module.exports = {
input: {
path: './src',
include: ['**/*.js', '**/*.vue'],
},
output: {
locales: ['en', 'fr'],
splitJson: true,
path: './src/languages',
potPath: './messages.pot',
jsonPath: './',
flat: false,
linguas: true,
},
}
Thanks in advance for any tips/help
@calicoder77 i can't quite reproduce this (at least not in v3.0.0-beta.1), but maybe we can figure this out with some more info. the error indicates that there's no line like "Language: fr\n"
in e.g. src/languages/fr/app.po
, is that the case?
but the translations.json file remains empty
the extract
command should not do anything with the translations.json file. also, you have splitJson: true
enabled, so the compile command should not create a translations.json
file but instead two files: en.json
and fr.json
.
maybe also check what gettext version you're running, e.g. msginit --version
, in my case this outputs msginit (GNU gettext-tools) 0.21.1
.
Hi @lzurbriggen, that language line was the cause afterall. I changed the split to false and now can see my translations.json file.
Thank you for the help.
