This add translation to Eloquent Model

Installation

composer require anacreation/translatable

Eloquent model that use the

namespace App;

use Anacreation\Translatable\traits\TranslatableTrait;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Product extends Model
{
    use TranslatableTrait;
}

can use the following APIs

Usage

Create and update translations

`createModelWithTranslations( array $attributes = [], array $content): Model`

the $content has a predefine format

$content = [
    "language_code_1"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 1",
        "attribute_2" => "value 2",
        "attribute_3" => "value 3",
    ],

    "language_code_2"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 4",
        "attribute_2" => "value 5",
        "attribute_3" => "value 6",
    ]
]

$newModel = Model::createModelWithTranslations($attributes, $content);

it create a model instance and save the content

`updateTranslations(array $content): void`

No matter for create new language transaltion or update existing language. Simple call this funciton. The $content structure is same as above.

Retrieve translation

if you have a model with translation as above.

then you can

$mode->attribute_1;

this will automatically fetch the translation base on your current locale setting.

app()->getLocale();

Fallback

Then defalut fallback is set to false, no fallback if content is null.

The fall back system is very simple. if you have set the config fallback_locale and set the eloquent model fallback to true

$model->fallback = true;

then if the translation for particular attribute is null. It will try to get the translation for fallback locale.

Retrieve all translation

$translation_array = $model->translatables;

this will return a array as above. The translation array has structure as below:

[
    "language_code_1"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 1",
        "attribute_2" => "value 2",
    ],

    "language_code_2"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 3",
        "attribute_2" => "value 4",
    ]
]

Delete Translation

`deleteTranslatableAttribute( string $key, string $locale = null ): void`

This will delete specfic attribute for all or speficied transaltion. If the original translation as below:

[
    "language_code_1"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 1",
        "attribute_2" => "value 2",
    ],

    "language_code_2"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 3",
        "attribute_2" => "value 4",
    ]
]

We call

    $model->deleteTranslatableAttribute("attribute_2");

the translation will become

[
    "language_code_1"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 1",
    ],

    "language_code_2"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 3",
    ]
]

if we call

    $model->deleteTranslatableAttribute("attribute_2", "language_code_2");

the result will as below

[
    "language_code_1"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 1",
        "attribute_2" => "value 2",
    ],

    "language_code_2"=>[
        "attribute_1" => "value 3",
    ]
]

`deleteTranslatableWithLocale(string $locale ): void`

This will remove all translation with specified locale. if we call

    $model->deleteTranslatableWithLocale("language_code_2");
