I18n-module: Cannot access localePath in middleware

[RomainLK]

I'm making a middleware which redirects users to some pages depending on the store informations. However, I'm lacking localePath to localise the path for the redirect. I expected it to be available as context.app.localePath, but it's not.

More interestingly, it's available at context.app.i18n.vm.localePath but the this context is not correct. localePath is somehow bound to a component which has neither $router or $i18n resulting in an error in i18n.routing.plugin.js

For now I'm running out of idea. I suspect that it might be a problem with nuxt lifecycle between plugins / middleware but it's still obscure.

Versions:
nuxt: 1.3
nuxt-i18n: 2.2.4

@RomainLK did you ever find a resolution to this? facing a similar issue using middleware to redirect based on a token existing within the store

Nevermind, actually found the answer to this looking at #25.

You can access localePath via app.localePath, not app.i18n.localePath, like we're all expecting.

Could this be corrected in the doc ? See: https://nuxt-community.github.io/nuxt-i18n/basic-usage.html#nuxt-link
