Sencha Cmd production build does not respect locale

The recommended way to set the locale for a Ext JS 7.4.0 modern app is in app.json:

"requires": [
    "ext-locale"
],
"locale": "de",

This works fine for sencha app build development but has no effect for sencha app build production (the production build just uses the default english locale).

I also tried by setting the build descriptor in app.json:

"builds": {
    "modern": {
        "toolkit": "modern",
        "locales": [
            "de"
        ]
    }
},

Sencha Cmd then processes the modern-de instead of the default build descriptor, but still, no effect in the production build.

Solution

  • It is a bug in Ext JS 7.2, 7.3, and 7.4. Commenting out the last three Ext.define statements in ext\modern\locale\overrides\de\locale-de.js solves the problem as described in Publishing ext.js 7.2 Modern project with localization
