Lightweight translator for Nette Framework using NEON files, supporting global and module-specific translations.

License: MIT PHP version Tests Coding Style CodeFactor Coverage Status

Requirements

  • PHP >= 8.3
  • Nette Framework
  • Composer

Installation

composer require drago-ex/translator

Extension registration

Register the DI extension in your NEON configuration.

extensions:
	translator: Drago\Localization\DI\TranslatorExtension(%appDir%, %tempDir%)

Optional configuration

translator:
	autoFinder: false
	translateDirs:
		- %appDir%/First/Translate
		- %appDir%/Second/Translate

Translator Behavior

  • All directories listed in translateDirs are loaded in order.
  • Later directories override translations from earlier ones.
  • If autoFinder is enabled, the entire application directory is scanned for NEON files.

Translation files must be named by language code:

cs.neon
en.neon

Translation File Format

"Hello, world!": "Hello, world!"

Using Translator in Presenters

Add the TranslatorAdapter trait to your presenter:

use Drago\Localization\TranslatorAdapter;

The trait provides:

  • persistent language parameter ($lang)
  • automatic translator initialization
  • template integration

Accessing the Current Language

You can access the currently set language using the following property:

$this->lang;

Getting Translator Instance

To get the initialized translator for the current language:

$this->getTranslator()

Using Translations in Templates

The translator is automatically registered in templates. Example usage in Latte:

{_"Hello, world!"}
{$label|translate}

Using Translator in Forms

To enable translations in forms, set the translator explicitly:

$form->setTranslator($this->getTranslator());

Routing for Language Switching

To support language prefixes, configure your routes accordingly:

$router->addRoute('[<lang=en cs|en>/]<presenter>/<action>', 'Presenter:action');

Switching Languages in Templates

You can switch languages by passing the lang parameter:

<a n:href="this, lang => cs">Czech</a>
<a n:href="this, lang => en">English</a>

Notes

  • Translator loads translations lazily on first use
  • Translations are loaded once per request
  • Missing keys return the original message
