Reload on message file updates about next-intl

[mattiloh]

Never mind. I don't know what I changed, but now the server restarts whenever I update the message files. I still need to manually reload the page to see the changes, but that's ok.

Hi @mattiloh,

thank you for giving next-intl a shot and your feedback! 🙂

The messages not updating sounds odd to me. I've just upgraded the example in this repo to the latest Next.js version and I get updated messages when I reload the page.

The update mechanism ultimately depends on how you provide your labels. If they're imported in client code statically, I think you'd even get Fast Refresh support. But if they come from getStaticProps and friends you need a page reload.

Yes, that's correct. I found this repo to get page-reloads for these cases: https://github.com/hashicorp/next-remote-watch

Oh that's nice, thanks for sharing!

What’s the current recommended way of page reloading when translations change? next-remote-watch does not work with Next.js 13 and 14: hashicorp/next-remote-watch#52
