Last update: 2024-08-16 05:51:33 UTC
README
Extension to the Slim PHP micro-framework version 3 to enable language based routing, i.e. i18n and l10n.
Dependencies
- Slim/Slim (v3)
Installation
By terminal:
composer require luism-s/multilingualslim
Usage
The $container
is used as an interface between the Middleware and the Routes.
The multilinguage middleware injects the following variables into the $container
: default_language
, available_languages
and language
.
The first two are variables set by the developer, and the last is set by the middleware itself and indicates the requested language.
use \Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface as Request; use \Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface as Response; require '../vendor/autoload.php'; $default_language = 'pt'; $available_languages = ['pt', 'en']; $app = new \Slim\App(); $container = $app->getContainer(); $app->add( new \MultilingualSlim\LanguageMiddleware($available_languages, $default_language, $container) ); $app->get('/', function (Request $request, Response $response) { // This works with '/', '/pt' and '/en', // and prints 'Hello' in each language. if ($this->language === 'pt') { return $response->write("Olá Mundo"); } elseif($this->language === 'en') { return $response->write("Hello World"); } }); $app->run();
You can also use a library to render templates such as php-view. For example:
$container['renderer'] = new \Slim\Views\PhpRenderer("../views/"); $app->get('/home', function (Request $request, Response $response) { // This works with '/home', '/pt/home' and '/en/home', // and returns the template views/base.php. // It also passes the chosen language as an argument accessible from the chosen template. return $this->renderer->render($response, "base.php", [ "language" => $this->language ]); });
Acknowledgements
This project is largely influenced by SimoTod/slim-multilanguage, which follows the same philosophy but is made for the version 2 of Slim.
TODO
Develop functions to do things such as testing for default language, get current language, compare language, and maybe more.
