TypeError: Cannot read property 'translator' of undefined

Hello friends.

I found this error in the server log and the application does not work. What can it be?

did you init 18next? can you paste your config?

[strarsis]

I had to assign the whole i18n instance object to pug (formerly jade) locals instead just the t(...) method.
Edit: This seems to be a i18next related issue, not specifically to React.

we assign t to locals like: https://github.com/i18next/i18next-express-middleware/blob/master/src/index.js#L33
