1. Installation

• Choose your version according to the version compatibility matrix:

• Add the following line in the require-dev array of the composer.json file and replace the version if needed according to your Laravel version:

  "potsky/laravel-localization-helpers" : "2.6.*"

• Update your installation : composer update

• For Laravel, add the following lines in the AppServiceProvider array of the config/app.php configuration file :

  Potsky\LaravelLocalizationHelpers\LaravelLocalizationHelpersServiceProvider::class,

  On Laravel 5.5, if you don't use the package in production, disable auto-loading and register it only on local or dev:

  • Add the following lines in the register method of the AppServiceProvider :

     public function register()
     {
     	if ($this->app->environment() === 'dev') { // or local or whatever
     		$this->app->register(\Potsky\LaravelLocalizationHelpers\LaravelLocalizationHelpersServiceProvider::class);
     	}
     }

  • Disable to auto-register provider by adding these lines in the composer.json file:

     "extra" : {
     	"laravel" : {
     		"dont-discover" : [
     			"potsky/laravel-localization-helpers"
     		]
     	}
     }

• For Lumen, add the following lines in the bootstrap/app.php file :

   $app->register( Potsky\LaravelLocalizationHelpers\LaravelLocalizationHelpersServiceProvider::class );
   $app->configure('laravel-localization-helpers');

• Now execute php artisan list and you should view the new localization commands:

  ...
  localization
  localization:clear          Remove lang backup files
  localization:find           Display all files where the argument is used as a lemma
  localization:missing        Parse all translations in app directory and build all lang files
  ...
  

In Laravel, you can add the facade in the Aliases if you need to manage translations in your code :

'LocalizationHelpers' => Potsky\LaravelLocalizationHelpers\Facade\LocalizationHelpers::class

2. Configuration

To configure your fresh installed package, please create a configuration file by executing :

php artisan vendor:publish

Then you can modify the configuration in file :

config/laravel-localization-helpers.php

Add new folders to search for, add your own lang methods or functions, ...

For Lumen, copy manually the configuration file as config/laravel-localization-helpers.php.

Backup files

You should not include backup lang files in GIT or other versioning systems.

In your laravel folder, add this in .gitignore file :

# Do not include backup lang files
resources/lang/*/[a-zA-Z]*20[0-9][0-9][0-1][0-9][0-3][0-9]_[0-2][0-9][0-5][0-9][0-5][0-9].php

3. Usage

3.1 Command localization:missing

This command parses all your code and generates translations according to lang files in all lang/XXX/ directories.

Use php artisan help localization:missing for more informations about options.

Examples

Generate all lang files

php artisan localization:missing

Generate all lang files without prompt

php artisan localization:missing -n

Generate all lang files without backuping old files

php artisan localization:missing -b

Generate all lang files with automatic translations

php artisan localization:missing -t

You need to set your Microsoft Bing Translator credentials More informations here : https://github.com/potsky/microsoft-translator-php-sdk#user-content-2-configuration

Generate all lang files without keeping obsolete lemmas

php artisan localization:missing -o

Generate all lang files without any comment for new found lemmas

php artisan localization:missing -c

Generate all lang files without header comment

php artisan localization:missing -d

Generate all lang files and set new lemma values

3 commands below produce the same output:

php artisan localization:missing
php artisan localization:missing -l
php artisan localization:missing -l "TODO: %LEMMA"

You can customize the default generated values for unknown lemmas.

The following command let new values empty:

php artisan localization:missing -l ""

The following command prefixes all lemma values with "Please translate this : "

php artisan localization:missing -l "Please translate this : %LEMMA"

The following command set all lemma values to null to provide fallback translations to all missing values.

php artisan localization:missing -l null

The following command set all lemma values to "Please translate this !"

php artisan localization:missing -l 'Please translate this !'

Silent option for shell integration

#!/bin/bash

php artisan localization:missing -s
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "Nothing to do dude, GO for release"
else
echo "I will not release in production, lang files are not clean"
fi

Simulate all operations (do not write anything) with a dry run

php artisan localization:missing -r

Open all must-edit files at the end of the process

php artisan localization:missing -e

You can edit the editor path in your configuration file. By default, editor is Sublime Text on Mac OS X :

'editor_command_line' => '/Applications/Sublime\\ Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl'

For PHPStorm on Mac OS X:

'editor_command_line' => '/usr/local/bin/phpstorm'

3.2 Command localization:find

This command will search in all your code for the argument as a lemma.

Use php artisan help localization:find for more informations about options.

Examples

Find regular lemma

php artisan localization:find Search

Find regular lemma with verbose

php artisan localization:find -v Search

Find regular lemma with short path displayed

php artisan localization:find -s "Search me"

Find lemma with a regular expression

php artisan localization:find -s -r "@Search.*@"
php artisan localization:find -s -r "/.*me$/"

PCRE functions are used

3.3 Command localization:clear

This command will remove all backup lang files.

Use php artisan help localization:clear for more informations about options.

Examples

Remove all backups

php artisan localization:clear

Remove backups older than 7 days

php artisan localization:clear -d 7

  • translated of course if option t is used
  • shorten to their minimal value ( trans( 'message.child.this is a text' ) will now generate ['child'] => 'TODO: this is a text', and no more ['child'] => 'TODO: child.this is a text',)

Internally :

• totally refactored
• unit tests
• test coverage
