Translating a date results in bad output

See original GitHub issue

My problem is quite simple, the example demonstrates it.

console.log(totpExpiration); // 6/24/2016, 1:01:46 PM
const body = __('SMS_BODY_TEXT', { totp, totpExpiration });
console.log(body); // The code expires at 6&#x2F;24&#x2F;2016, 1:01:46 PM

Now the “/” characters become “/” HTML Entity and I did not find anything about escaping my variables for __(). Mind that there is no templating engine here, I will send the string out in SMS.

Ran into the same issue. Would be nice 🙂 if this was mentioned in the readme. Somebody that uses i18n-node does not necessarily know about mustache (like me).

It’s great to learn there is a simple solution to this issue, but it would be even better to mention it in the readme 😉 Thanks
