npm install globalize - E_MISSING_BUNDLE

Question

I'm sure this is a silly configuration problem but I cannot seem to figure it out. I'm using the globalize package within nodejs installed this way:

npm install --save globalize cldr-data

Which looking at my package.json installed:

"globalize": "^1.1.1",
"cldr-data": "^29.0.1",

Then I created a nodeunit test:

var Globalize = require( "globalize" );
Globalize.load( require( "cldr-data" ).entireSupplemental() );
Globalize.load( require( "cldr-data" ).entireMainFor( "es") );
Globalize.loadMessages({
    en: {
        hello: "Hello, {0} {1} {2}",
        hey: "Hey, {first} {middle} {last}"
    }
});
exports['test message translation'] = function (test) {
    var enFormatter = Globalize( "es-MX" ).messageFormatter( "hello" );
    testString = enFormatter([ "Wolfgang", "Amadeus", "Mozart" ]);
    test.equal(testString, "Hello, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart");
    test.done();
};
exports['test date localization'] = function (test) {
    test.equals("18/4/2016", Globalize( "es-MX" ).dateFormatter()( new Date()));
    test.done();
};

The first test passes but the 2nd fails with this error:

Error: E_MISSING_BUNDLE: {"locale":"es-MX"}

Anyone have any ideas on how I'm misconfiguring this?

Answer 1

Figured it out immediately AFTER making this post.

It turns out if I add the "es-MX" to the list of locales to load in entireMainFor this works as exepcted:

Globalize.load( require( "cldr-data" ).entireMainFor( "es", "es-MX") );

Hope this helps someone else! For whatever reason I thought all locales under a given language were loaded in this function. I've submitted an issue to globalize on the hunch that others might make the same assumptions and a slight change to documentation could clarify - it's here: jquery / globalize #610.
