Pass variables from app, to a fluent selector #580
Description
I'm trying to pass a variable ($week) from my application, to a selector as an argument.
week-nb = Number: { $week }
week-name = {-ordinal(num: $week, gender: "feminine") } semaine
-ordinal = { $num ->
[1] { $gender ->
*[default] premier
[feminine] première
}
[2] deuxième
[3] troisième
*[other] { $num }
}The week-nb identifier work well, it returns Number: 1 as expected.
But week-name returns nothing, instead of "première semaine".
// From the JS code
const weekNumber = bundle.getMessage("week-nb");
if (weekNumber.value) {
const weekNb = bundle.formatPattern(weekNumber.value, {
week: 1,
});
console.log(weekNb); // Outputs: Number: 1
}
const weekNameMessage = bundle.getMessage("week-name");
if (weekNameMessage.value) {
const weekName = bundle.formatPattern(weekNameMessage.value, {
week: 1,
});
console.log(weekName); // Do not outputs anything
}Am I missing something? Is there any limitations?
I would like to keep my -ordinal selector separated (to stay DRY), because it is required at several places in my locale file.

Since I still haven't had any answers after a few months, and because it might be only a Fluent syntax issue (rather than a JavaScript issue), I've reposted this issue on the main Fluent repo: projectfluent/fluent#351
