Laravel persistent locale and Javascript/Vue.js translation support
README
Generates and manage Javascript Laravel localization and current locale
Installation
Install with composer
composer require plokko/locale-manager
Laravel >=5.5 should auto discover and register the required services.
If you have laravel <5.5 you need to manually register the provider in your /config/app.php
<?php //... 'providers' => [ //... //-- Add locale manager --// Plokko\LocaleManager\LocaleManagerServiceProvider::class, //... ], //...
To edit configuration parameter publish it with
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Plokko\LocaleManager\LocaleManagerServiceProvider" --tag="config"
then edit your config\locale-manager.php configuration file.
Persistent locale
If you want to automatically set the Laravel locale to the user (browser preferred) locale or let the user set a locale (via cookie) you can add the PersistentLocale middleware included in this package:
edit your /App/Http/Kernel.php file and add the \Plokko\LocaleManager\PersistentLocale middleware
<?php //... protected $middlewareGroups = [ 'web' => [ //... //add this line below \Plokko\LocaleManager\Middleware\PersistentLocale::class, //... ], //...
Javascript initialization
Include the Javascript code in your main app.js file like below:
/*** Import translation plugin ***/ import Localization from '../../vendor/plokko/locale-manager/assets/js/Localization'; // Make it globally accessible from the page // NOTE: variable name MUST be the same js_class window.Localization = new Localization(); // Optional: add global functions window.trans = function(key,replace){return window.Localization.trans(key,replace);}; window.trans_choice = function(key,number,replace){return window.Localization.trans_choice(key,number,replace);}; // Optional: Vue mixin to make it globally available Vue.mixin({ methods:{ trans: window.trans , trans_choice: window.trans_choice , }, filters:{ trans:(s) => window.trans(s), } });
