When using Create React App and TypeScript, a file is auto-generated in the src directory: react-app-env.d.ts. This file seems necessary to support image imports as discussed here: https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/issues/6560.
When using Format.JS, I extract messages using the following command:
yarn extract 'src/**/*.ts*' --out-file lang/en-GB.json --id-interpolation-pattern '[sha512:contenthash:base64:6]'
But unfortunately this results in this error:
warning Error: Error processing file src/react-app-env.d.ts Debug Failure. Output generation failed Done in 9.64s.
I need to process both .ts and .tsx files. I have tried to hack the search pattern to exclude the specific file name, but I am now completely stumped as I am unsure of its precise specification.
As a workaround I can delete the file prior to extraction, but this is very annoying!

Just use 'src/**/!(*.d).ts*' pattern in your extract script, this will exclude all .d.* files from your src folder.
