E8115 error

Locale file is not a JSON object of strings

area: stdlib (x8xxx)
fails the build: yes

A locale file is not a JSON object whose values are all strings. The file may not be valid JSON, its top level may not be an object, or a value may be a number, a table or null. Every translation is a string, so write numbers in quotes, and fix the JSON syntax if the file doesn't parse.

Example

× failslocales/enUS.jsonjson

{ "TITLE": "Kill Tracker", "MAX_KILLS": 100 }

src/main.wowluawowlua

import L from "wowlua:locale"print(L.TITLE)

✓ compileslocales/enUS.jsonjson

{ "TITLE": "Kill Tracker", "MAX_KILLS": "100" }

src/main.wowluawowlua

import L from "wowlua:locale"print(L.TITLE, L.MAX_KILLS)

The compiler reports it like this:

error[E8115]: `MAX_KILLS` in `locales/enUS.json` must be a string
 = in locales/enUS.json
