next.config.js module export error

I have the following code in my next.config.js and it currently works

const nextTranslate = require("next-translate")

module.exports = nextTranslate

When i try to change module.exports = nextTranslate to module.exports = nextTranslate(), I get the following typescript error:

This expression is not callable. Type ‘typeof import(“D:/test/node_modules/next-translate/index”)’ has no call signatures.ts(2349)

Thank you for the reproduction repository! If you read the Error message after yarn dev, is saying that you miss the i18n file.

In reality you miss 2 things:

• Add i18n.json file
• Add locales folder with your translations

i18n.json file:

{
  "locales": ["en", "ca", "es"],
  "defaultLocale": "en",
  "pages": {
    "*": ["common"],
    "/": ["home", "example"],
    "/about": ["about"]
  }
}

locales:

.
├── ca
│   ├── common.json
│   └── home.json
├── en
│   ├── common.json
│   └── home.json
└── es
    ├── common.json
    └── home.json

I have the same issue. Just wanted to set things up.

I did the following steps:

1. install package
2. add config
3. add locales
4. update next config

Translations work but the error is present. Reseting VScode settings doesn’t help
