🧩 Analysis chain

🌐 Web query:

next-intl t.raw() method missing keys error handling behavior

💡 Result:

Short answer: when t.raw(...) (or any t(...) call) can't find a message next-intl logs an i18n error and returns the message id (namespace.key) so the app keeps running. You can customize this via getMessageFallback and onError (e.g., return a different fallback string or change logging/throwing). [1][2]

Relevant docs:

  • Default missing-message behavior and configurable onError/getMessageFallback. [1]
  • next-intl general usage (t and t.raw for raw objects). [2]

If you want the runtime to behave differently for t.raw specifically (e.g., throw or return null), implement getMessageFallback/onError in your request/provider config to handle IntlErrorCode.MISSING_MESSAGE. [1][3]

🌐 Web query:

next-intl t.has() method documentation and usage

💡 Result:

Short answer

  • next-intl exposes t.has(key) to check whether a translation key exists for the current locale; it returns a boolean. Use it to conditionally render optional/incomplete translations. [1][2]

Example

  • In a React component:
    const t = useTranslations('About');
    if (t.has('title')) {
    return

    {t('title')}

    ;
    } else {
    return

    Fallback

    ;
    }
  • t.has accepts the same key strings you pass to t (including nested/namespace keys like 'CompanyStats.yearsOfService.title'). [1]

Notes

  • t.has only checks the current locale’s messages (you can still provide fallback messages via your locale setup). [1]
  • The feature was discussed as the recommended way to handle optional translations in the project’s issue tracker. [2]

Sources
[1] next-intl docs — "Optional messages" / translations usage.
[2] amannn/next-intl GitHub — issue discussing optional translations and t.has.

The fallback logic in getCategoryLabel doesn't work as intended; use t.has() to properly check translation existence.

The typeof translated === 'string' check will always pass because t.raw() returns a string regardless—either the translation value or the message id (e.g., "categories.career") when the key is missing. This means missing translations return the message id instead of falling back to the original category name.

Use t.has() to check if the translation exists before accessing it:

♻️ Suggested fix 
  const getCategoryLabel = (categoryName: string): string => {
    const key = categoryName.toLowerCase();
    const translationKey = `categories.${key}`;
-   // Try to get translation, fallback to original name
-   const translated = t.raw(translationKey);
-   return typeof translated === 'string' ? translated : categoryName;
+   return t.has(translationKey) ? t(translationKey) : categoryName;
  };

This same pattern appears in BlogCategoryLinks.tsx (lines 30–35) and should be updated there as well.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents 
In `@frontend/components/blog/BlogFilters.tsx` around lines 137 - 144, The
getCategoryLabel helper currently uses typeof translated === 'string' after
calling t.raw(), which always returns a string (the id when missing); change the
logic to first check t.has(translationKey) and only call t.raw(translationKey)
when t.has(...) is true, otherwise return the original categoryName; apply the
same fix in the BlogCategoryLinks component where the same t.raw(...) fallback
pattern is used so both getCategoryLabel and the category link label logic use
t.has(...) to determine translation existence before reading t.raw(...).
