Get a list of missing translations from nuxt i18n - v9

[pocketstore-io]

Iam currently looking for a way to find all missing translations.
So i can provide translations for that.

Iam using v9.

Tried to add onMissing callback to the config, but doesnt work
Was looking with Chatgpt for a solution but doesnt find one.

Would appreciate any help on this, maybe there is a config option for this.

I found a way to hack Nuxt3 via Plugin. So there should be a solution in the Config.

My Plugin for Nuxt 3:
export default defineNuxtPlugin((nuxtApp) => {
nuxtApp.$i18n.setMissingHandler((locale,message) => {
console.log(locale);
console.log(message);
});
})

I guess you should run a script with your translation files: your approach will force you to visit all pages per locale.

If you're using json files you can check this module https://github.com/elk-zone/elk/blob/main/scripts/prepare-translation-status.ts

To run the script (via tsx): https://github.com/elk-zone/elk/blob/main/package.json#L29 (you can remove TS and run it using node ./scripts/prepare-translation-status.mjs

You can change it to load js/ts files.

The result can be found here: https://docs.elk.zone/guide/contributing#translation-status (missing and outdated keys)

Maybe it will be nice to have this utility here with a new option to allow generate the summary.

i just wrote a few lines.

Iam using PocketBase.io for the Translations so i:

• establish a connect to pocketbase instance
• update the rules for creation translation
• and wrote the translation with local, message and a text for missing translations to it
• when i now go over every page the missing translation will be created and i only need to add the proper translation for it

But it would be nice to add a flag for a missing translation stored in the i18n folder with key for the translation.
