When using different domains, is it possible to only generate pages for one locale?

[Guito]

I am using i18n different domains for a long time now (#19). I am migrating my application to nuxt 3 and I was wondering if it's possible to generate only the routes related to one locale but also have the urls for the rest of locales. So, for example:

Locales:

const locales = [
    {
        code: 'en',
        name: 'English',
        langFile: 'en.json',
        domain: en.localhost
    },
    {
        code: 'es',
        name: 'Español',
        langFile: 'es.json',
        domain: es.localhost
    }
]

Page example:

const {locale, locales, t} = useI18n()
const links = locales.value.map(locale => ({
    hid: 'alternate-hreflang-' + locale.code,
    rel: 'alternate',
    href: switchLocalePath(locale.code),
    hreflang: locale.code,
}));
links.push({
    rel: 'canonical', href: switchLocalePath(locale.value), id: 'canonical'
});
useHead({
    link: links
})

defineI18nRoute({
    paths: {
        en: '/page',
        es: '/pagina,
    }
})

nuxt config adding a new param called generateOnlyDefaultLocale

i18n: {
        strategy: 'prefix',
        defaultLocale: 'en',
        locales: locales,
        differentDomains: true,
        loadLanguagesAsync: true,
        langDir: 'assets/locales/',
        lazy: true,
        generateOnlyDefaultLocale: true
    }

I would expect, when running generate, to only generate the file 'page' and not 'pagina' and the generated file should have meta tags to 'pagina'

Additional information

• Would you be willing to help implement this feature?
• Could this feature be implemented as a module?

Final checks

• Read the contribution guide (The contribution guideline of nuxt-modules/i18n is compliant with Nuxt too).
• Check existing discussions and issues.

This is a question, not issue.
We will move to github discussions.

nuxt i18n module v8 doesn't have generateOnlyDefaultLocale option...

[Guito]

Yes, I know it does not have it. I meant that it could be an option to add to the module. Would it be possible to do something like this?
