Problems with parsing TSX

[cernymatej]

Reporting a bug?

As reported in #402, there are some problems with parsing the TSX template and I believe they were not fixed by #414.

Specifically, the following error appears in the console when trying to run the dev server: Pre-transform error: '>' expected.

IMPORTANT: this doesn't show up in the reproduction on Stackblitz, because it is masked by #420, however, when you download it and run it locally, you can see the error. (at least on my machine - check system info)

Expected behavior

No error should appear and the app should build successfully

Thank you for your reporting!

Unfortunately, This issue caused by v-t directive optimization. Nuxt i18n optimize with using vue-i18n-extensions, which has still issue for tsx. 😞

v-t is supported by vue-i18n, but this directive is scheduled to be deprecated in vue-i18n v12.
In anticipation of this, nuxt i18n has added an option that allows you to opt out in v9.1.1.
You can avoid this by setting the following in nuxt.config.ts.

i18n: {
  bundle: {
    optimizeTranslationDirective: false
  }
}

Thank you! ❤️ I can finally update to nuxt-i18n v9 🥳

So, it is probably not worth fixing it if it's going to be removed, correct?
I'll add information about this into the issue in nuxt-i18n as well.)

Feel free to close this.
