Hi @foggy ferry. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
#i18n translation doesn't work in production
dire dirgeBOT
The error message you're seeing suggests that the translation key hero.aboutme3 is missing from your i18n configuration. This could be due to a few reasons:
- i18n Not Enabled: The
astro:i18nmodule cannot be used without enabling i18n in your Astro config. To enable i18n, add a default locale and a list of supported locales to your Astro config. Here's an example of how to do this:
import { defineConfig } from 'astro'
export default defineConfig({
i18n: {
defaultLocale: 'en',
locales: ['en', 'fr'],
},
})
Source (https://docs.astro.build/en/reference/errors/i18n-not-enabled/#_top)
-
Missing Locale: The locale/path
LOCALEdoes not exist in the configuredi18n.locales. All supported locales must be configured ini18n.localesand have corresponding directories withinsrc/pages/.
Source (https://docs.astro.build/en/reference/errors/missing-locale/#_top) -
Missing Translation Key: The key
hero.aboutme3might be missing in your translation files. Make sure that this key exists in all your translation files for each locale you have configured.
If you've checked all of these and the issue persists, it might be a good idea to look into community libraries for i18n features in Astro, such as astro-i18next (https://github.com/yassinedoghri/astro-i18next) or astro-i18n (https://github.com/alexandre-fernandez/astro-i18n).

Also, ensure that your project is correctly configured for deployment on Vercel. You can find detailed instructions on how to deploy your Astro site to Vercel here (https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/deploy/vercel/#how-to-deploy).
Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:

@dire dirge 1. i18n is enabled.
import { defineConfig } from "astro/config";
import sitemap from "<@&1055234544183287879>/sitemap";
import react from "<@&1055234544183287879>/react";
import vercel from "<@&1055234544183287879>/vercel/serverless";
import astroI18next from "astro-i18next";

-
The locale/path exists in /public/locales/es/translations.json and /public/locales/en/translations.json
-
The key is not missing.

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
Based on the information you've provided, your i18n configuration seems to be correct. However, the error message suggests that the translation key hero.aboutme3 is not being found. Here are a few things you could check:
-
File Path: Ensure that the path to your translation files is correct. The files should be located in the
public/locales/{locale}/directory, where{locale}is each of the locales you have configured (in your case,enandes). -
File Format: Check that your translation files are in the correct format. They should be JSON files with a structure that matches the keys you're using in your application. Based on your example, this seems to be correct.
-
Usage in Code: Make sure you're using the translation keys correctly in your code. If you're using a library like
astro-i18next, you would typically use thetfunction to translate your keys, like so:t('hero.aboutme3'). -
Deployment Configuration: Ensure that your deployment configuration on Vercel is correct and that it's not causing issues with your i18n setup. You might want to check the Vercel deployment guide (https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/deploy/vercel/#how-to-deploy) for any potential issues.
If you've checked all of these and the issue persists, it might be a good idea to reach out to the Astro community or the maintainers of the astro-i18next library for further assistance.

@dire dirge the thing is that in localhost works perfectly, but not in production

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
If your i18n translations are working perfectly in your local environment but not in production, it could be due to a few reasons:
-
Build Process: Ensure that your build process is correctly including your translation files. Sometimes, certain files can be inadvertently excluded during the build process, which could cause them to be missing in the production environment.
-
Environment Differences: There might be differences between your local environment and your production environment that are causing the issue. This could be related to the way your server is set up, the way your application is being served, or other environment-specific factors.
-
Caching Issues: Sometimes, old versions of files can be cached either by your browser or by your server, which could cause outdated or incorrect data to be used. Try clearing your cache to see if that resolves the issue.
-
File Paths: File paths can sometimes behave differently on different systems or environments. Double-check your file paths to ensure they're correct and compatible with your production environment.
