Angular 2 i18n Extraction failed error

Question

I have the following problem using the ng-xi18n command:

Extraction failed

Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?

Node Version: v6.6.0

Angular: 2.0.0

Thanks for your time and help :)

EDIT: What worked for me is to uncomment the lines, that threw the error in the static.reflector.js. There is still an error, but also a new .xlf file. Just a temporary solution.

Remove all imports of RouterTestingModule and wait for the following issue to be fixed.

After removing the ```RouterTestingModule```, I ran into another error coming from primeng/datatables, maybe because it is not AOT ready yet. AOT seems to be very unstable... – Guntram Oct 06 '16 at 15:44
Yes, primeng is not AOT compatible yet: https://github.com/primefaces/primeng/pull/1004 I removed all primeng components temporarily... – Michal Dymel Oct 06 '16 at 15:49

Try to use node_modules/.bin/ng-xi18n -p src/tsconfig.json as it mentioned on github... It generates .xlf for me without any error.

Can you try creating a script in your package.json??

package.json

{
  ...,
  "scripts": {
    "i18n": "ng-xi18n",
    ...
  },
  ...
}

And run the script from the command line

$ npm run i18n
