Export with withNamespaces messing with SSR

[yonjuukyuu]

Hi there, i have setup i18next with SSR and is working fine for me on dev, but on production the pre-rendering of the page with fetch isomorphic-unfetch and getInitialProps is not working as expected.

everything is been rendered on client , and i wanted to render on server and deliver as html, which if i remove the export withNamespaces to the default export of nexus.js it works fine bu then translations won't work.

I am i doing something wrong the setup that i have is based on the exemples you have on the git _app.js , i18n.js , and nextI18NextMiddleware on server.js

I'm having an error also in production, but I think it's due to using next-redux-saga and next-redux-wrapper with next-i18next. I've made a CodeSanbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/v8796vz3m5. The error appears also using react-redux 6.0.0 (in the sandbox i'm using 5.1.1). Hope it helps. Thank you.

Hi @yonjuukyuu and @Clebal.

@yonjuukyuu Do you mind explaining your problem a little bit more, or sharing a repository / CodeSandbox to reproduce the issue? I don't really understand what you are saying so far. Do you mean that you're doing next export?

which if i remove the export withNamespaces to the default export of nexus.js it works fine

What does this mean?

I'm not familiar with "isomorphic-unfetch" but I doubt that is affecting your next-i18next implementation.

Basically - as soon as you can show me code / a reproducible example, I can help you.

@Clebal I am still getting a 502 on your CodeSandbox (don't know if they're down or what). But let's keep the discussion of your problem to the original issue, #52.

Hello Isaac

I have the same issue without any dependency like he mentioned, just try to export with your example form this repo, export doesnt work anymore, there is what my terminal shows :

No "exportPathMap" found in "next.config.js". Generating map from "./pages"
exporting path: /404
exporting path: /about
TypeError: Cannot read property 'router' of undefined

I updated from v.0.8.0 to v0.10.2

Thanks

What do you mean export? Do you mean running next export?

If someone provides clear steps to reproduce the problem, I can definitely debug this. However, I should be absolutely clear that doing a next export misses the entire point of this package and is not advised at all. You'll end up with a clientside-only app. If you want to export, I suggest simply creating your Next routes/pages manually for each language and not using next-i18next at all.

next-i18next is a SSR package.

Any update here?

Any update here?

Will try to push it to a repo. today

I can confirm that export should be fully functional with the new approach taken from v0.11.x onwards.

I want to reiterate that doing next export and then serving static HTML with next-i18next completely misses the point of this package - SSR.

That said, it's simple enough to support export, so if you do find an issue please let me know and I'll reopen.
