Hi,

I have a folder "i18n" which contains message bundle files. For 
now it contains only the message bundle file written by the 
developer: "messagebundle.properties".

During the translation process additional message bundle files 
will be added to github:
messagebundle_en.properties
messagebundle_de.properties
...
Changing the github content will automatically triggering the 
compilation process.
My wish is, that every time a new message bundle file is added, 
these file is automatically included into the compilation process.


I doubt, but is there a possibility to check during compile time 
which files exists in the
i18n folder and import() these files?

I see currently only 1 chance: Create a list of all possible 
language code (max 7) and check whether the import works via 
__traits(compiles,...).

Something like:
alias languages = TypeTuple!("en", "de");
static foreach(lang; languages)
{
...
}

Kind regards
André

Can't you just create all the files that you expect to have and 
leave them empty and then you import them all and process them 
differently if there is no content?

Thanks for the hints. I have some concerns creating the files 
upfront, because the files should only be created by other 
colleagues in an official translation process.

I will check whether I can determine the files via script as 
proposed by Rikki.

Kind regards
André
