Message

[X18N4002] Rename target already exists <detail>
├▶ fix: Delete or rename the existing key first.
╰▶ see: https://x18n.antfu.dev/errors/x18n4002

The CLI prints the code and why the error happened, with details such as a file name or a field. The fix and a link to this page follow. With --json, the same parts are in errors of the envelope.

What to do

A rename target already exists in at least one locale. x18n does not merge two keys.

  1. Run x18n get <to> to see the existing key.
  2. Delete or rename it first, then run the rename again.

Exit code

The CLI exits with code 1.
