no strings found on keybase/client project

[mathieujobin]

I'm trying to use your tool to extract all text strings from the Keybase client.

They have several files that match your supported extensions.

mathieu:keybase-client :-) (master) $ find shared/ -name "*.ts" | wc -l 
158
mathieu:keybase-client :-) (master) $ find shared/ -name "*.js" | wc -l 
29
mathieu:keybase-client :-) (master) $ find shared/ -name "*.jsx" | wc -l 
0
mathieu:keybase-client :-) (master) $ find shared/ -name "*.tsx" | wc -l 
1789
mathieu:keybase-client :-) (master) $ find shared/ -name "*.html" | wc -l 
0
mathieu:keybase-client :-) (master) $ 

but the extractor ran from REPL, could not find any...

here is the full output

anything else that I can try? Thanks

Ah, I think I get it ! the function call to GetText/translate needs to be put in place before, this isn't going to automagically update the code whereever there is a english string.

now I feel stupid, thank you
