Adding i18n

[gcastre]

Hello,

I tried to add aurelia-i18n and I have a problem with webpack, I followed the documentation, and everything works fine except when I edit a file that trigger the webpack watch.

When I launch the first time, my translation.json are copied to a locales folder inside the dist but when the watch triggers it remove the translation.json without re-copying them.

Here is how I configured the locales copy:

plugins: [
    new CleanWebpackPlugin(),
    new webpack.DefinePlugin({ IS_DEV_BUILD: JSON.stringify(isDevBuild) }),
    new webpack.ProvidePlugin({ $: "jquery", jQuery: "jquery", "window.jQuery": "jquery" }),
    new HtmlWebpackPlugin({ template: 'index.ejs', filename: "../../wwwroot/index.html", inject: false, metadata: {}, alwaysWriteToDisk: true }),
    new AureliaPlugin({ aureliaApp: "boot" }),
    new GlobDependenciesPlugin({ "boot": ["ClientApp/**/*.{ts,html}"] }),
    new ModuleDependenciesPlugin({}),
    new MiniCssExtractPlugin({
        filename: "[name].[hash].css",
        chunkFilename: "[name].[chunkhash].css"
    }),
    new CopyWebpackPlugin([
        { from: 'ClientApp/app/locales/', to: 'locales/' }
    ]),
],

I don't know why the CopyWebpackPlugin don't trigger when the watch is called. Do you have any idea why ?

Thanks.

Ok after a bit of digging you have to add

    new CleanWebpackPlugin({
        cleanAfterEveryBuildPatterns: ['!**/locales/**/translation.json'],
    }),

Sorry i've never played with webpack, should have done better research before posting !
