Banner

This package lets you share your local translations via API, so that any app can use them. To do so, it converts your PHP lang files to JSON.

Requirements

  1. You must provide your lang files within folders, such as lang/en or lang/de.
  2. The lang files must be in PHP format, such as `lang/en/validation.php.
  3. Must secure the API routes and its patterns on your own.

Installation

This package requires Laravel 9.33+. You can install the package via composer:

composer require empuxa/laravel-locale-via-api

Afterward, you might want to copy the vendor files:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Empuxa\LocaleViaApi\LocaleViaApiServiceProvider"

Remember to also update the config file config/locale-via-api.php to your needs!

Usage

This package provides two controllers to access your translations via API. You must add them to your routes/api.php file manually.

Empuxa\LocaleViaApi\Http\Controllers\ListLocalesController

With this controller, you can list any locale that is available in your app. For security reasons, it only returns the array from your config and doesn't read the actual files.

Route::get('/locales', ListLocalesController::class);

Empuxa\LocaleViaApi\Http\Controllers\GetLocaleController

This controller returns the contents of a locale directory as JSON. If the directory does not exist, it will return an error 404.

Route::get('/locales/{locale}', GetLocaleController::class);

Security

Since this package reads your lang files (and could theoretically read any other files as well), it is important to protect your API routes. Make sure that you only share the locales that you want to share. Add route pattern to do so.
