Error Condition: Detecting when the ID is blank/undefined

[dortamur]

I use Handlebars for templates, and in a few places, I use the syntax: {{__ stateid}}

The idea being that, whatever the value of stateid is, it looks up the i18n string. In some instances, stateid is undefined, and when encountered, it throws the error:

TypeError: /path/app/views/template.hbs: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined at dotNotation (/path/app/node_modules/i18n-2/i18n.js:23:15) at Object.i18n.translate (/path/app/node_modules/i18n-2/i18n.js:336:5) .....

Could a check be added to dotNotation(), such that if "is" is undefined, it fails more gracefully?

Thanks.

I don't really get the problem. Could you post a subset of your localization file and also explain a bit more?
