    Build Dictionaries

    To build your dictionaries, you can run the commands:

    npx intlayer build

    or in watch mode

    npx intlayer build --watch

    This command will find your declaration content files by default at ./src/**/*.content.{ts|js|mjs|cjs|json|tsx|jsx} and build the dictionaries in the .intlayer directory.

    Aliases:

    • npx intlayer dictionaries build
    • npx intlayer dictionary build
    • npx intlayer dic build

    Arguments:

    • --base-dir: Specify the base directory for the project. To retrieve the intlayer configuration, the command will look for the intlayer.config.{ts,js,json,cjs,mjs} file in the base directory.

      Example: npx intlayer build --base-dir ./src
    • --env: Specify the environment (e.g., development, production). Useful if you use environment variables in your intlayer configuration file.

      Example: npx intlayer build --env production
    • --env-file: Provide a custom environment file to load variables from. Useful if you use environment variables in your intlayer configuration file.

      Example: npx intlayer build --env-file .env.production.local
    • --with: Start a command in parallel with the build.

      Example: npx intlayer build --with "next dev --turbopack"
    • --skip-prepare: Skip the prepare step.

      Example: npx intlayer build --skip-prepare
    • --no-cache: Disable the cache.

      Example: npx intlayer build --no-cache
