Issues with import(../messages/${locale}.json))

[Answere1]

I have a trouble with write code. In your project (examples/example-app-router/src/i18n.ts) in return you wrote like import('../messages/${locale}.json'). I don't know why, but next says no such module is found.

Although I have the correct folder and file structure. However, if I write import('../messages/en.json') or import('../messages/de.json')(desired language) then everything is fine.

Having said that, I have 4 languages and I can't give the exact path either, writing 4 imports it seems wrong

This is how I have mine configured and it works:

// src/i18n.ts

import { notFound } from 'next/navigation';
import { getRequestConfig } from 'next-intl/server';

// Can be imported from a shared config
const locales = ['en', 'ro'];

export default getRequestConfig(async ({ locale }) => {
  // Validate that the incoming `locale` parameter is valid
  if (!locales.includes(locale as any)) notFound();

  // Updated path to reflect the new location at src/messages
  return {
    messages: (await import(`./messages/${locale}.json`)).default
  };
});

I hope it helps.

I did this but there is an error

This is my repository : https://github.com/Answere1/achieveyou-next-intl

Ohh, I think I know what the issue is!

After looking at your repository's structure, I think your messages folder should be inside the src folder, basically I think the error simply says that it can't find the folder because it expects it to be in that location but you seem to have the messages folder at the root of your project instead.

Nevermind, I have tested your repo and for me it seems to work out of the box, even the language switcher seems to work!

I think this may actually be some caching discrepancy on your side, I recommend doing the following:

1. Delete the .next folder from your project.
2. Restart Your PC/Laptop
3. Open Project Again
4. Run "npm run dev" and the .next folder will be rebuilt
5. Test if it works

I did as you said and the same error comes out. doing the next folder did not fix the error.
I also took your first tip and moved the messages folder to src and it worked.

Oh wow, I'm glad to hear that it worked!
