React-native i18next make use yaml files-CodePudding

I can't make i18next use yaml files for translation. Everything works fine with .json, but not with .yml I have no errors just no translation.

My i18n.ts is:

import i18n from 'i18next'
import {initReactI18next} from 'react-i18next'

const translation = require('./enyaml.yml')

export const resources = {
  en: {
    translation,
  },
}

i18n.use(initReactI18next).init({
  resources,
  lng: 'en',
  fallbackLng: 'en',
  interpolation: {
    escapeValue: false,
  },
})

As I can see this is some trouble with import or support of yaml files. Really appreciate any advices.

I have used i18n for multiple language select. In assets/lang/en.json,.../hi.json,.../ma.json,.../te.json Based on user selection u need to pass the json lang txt.

To use yaml files in react-native I installed babel-plugin-content-transformer and add in babel.config.js in plugins

['content-transformer', {
  transformers: [{
    file: /\.ya?ml$/,
    format: 'yaml'
  }]
}]

Now it works fine and I can use yaml files in my application. But there's new issue application displays .yml file changes only after server restart.
