Not translating texts with periods #11

Closed alvarotrigo closed 6 years ago

alvarotrigo commented 6 years ago

For example:

<p data-t>This is a demo of a text that won't get translated. Not sure why.</p>

Using the following json file:

{
  "Create": "pepe",
  "This is a demo of a text that won't get translated. Not sure why.": "aaaaa"
}

It seems the dot is not allowed within the key. Not matter if you use json or yaml

Found the solution, we have to change the default value for keyseparator in i18next

static-i18n -l en -i en -i es --fileFormat yml --i18n "{\"keyseparator\": \"::\"}" www

Hi, Yes, by default . is used to separate keys to be able to nest them. As you said, changing the keyseparator is I think the best solution.

Note that you can used single quotes in your shell to avoid having to escape JSON keys:

static-i18n -l en -i en -i es --fileFormat yml --i18n '{"keyseparator": "::"}' www
