Can't extract strings defined in a function

[brandonpittman]

I have a helper to fetch strings. The strings are defined in a function that returns a big object of strings first.

/**
 * Returns a nested object containing all i18n messages.
 * Follows wuchale extraction rules (https://wuchale.dev/guides/rules/).
 */
export const getMessages = () => {
	return {
		common: {
			other: 'その他'
		},
		profile: {
			gender: {
				title: '性別を教えてください。',
				male: '男性',
				female: '女性'
			}
		},
		test: {}
	} as const;
};

…but my strings aren't extracted.

Can anyone tell me why these wouldn't be extracted?

It seems perharps the code doesn't consider kanji as a "non-letter" character or it fails some check to see if it starts with a uppercase letter, since kanji and hiragana don't have uppercase/lowercase?

I'm referring to this rule:
If the first character is a lowercase English letter ([a-z]) or is any non-letter character, it is ignored.

Have you tried, using romaji to see what happens?

Hi @brandonpittman, actually I tried it and it works on my end. Do you use a custom heuristic? Can you paste your config?

I think taking as const off fixed this a while back.

Oh yeah, we resolved this on discord. My bad 😃
