Route configuration

You have several url configuration options depends on the chosen NAVTOOLS_URL_TYPE parameter:

Write your routes with lang variable

Route::group(['middleware' => ['pulsar.navtools']], function() {
    Route::get('/',                         function(){ return view('www.index'); });
    Route::get('{lang}',                  function(){ return view('www.index'); });
    Route::post('{lang}/contact',         ['as'=>'contact',  'uses'=>'FrontEndController@contact']);
});

Or set lang variable on your routes

Route::group(['middleware' => ['pulsar.navtools']], function() {
    Route::get('/',                   function(){ return view('www.index'); });

    Route::get('en',                  function(){ return view('www.index'); });
    Route::get('es',                  function(){ return view('www.index'); });

    Route::post('en/contact',         ['as' => 'contact-en',          'uses'=>'FrontEndController@contact']);
    Route::post('es/contacto',        ['as' => 'contact-es',          'uses'=>'FrontEndController@contact']);
});

Or set constant lang but country variable

Route::group(['middleware' => ['pulsar.navtools']], function() {
    Route::get('/',                   function(){ return view('www.index'); });

    Route::get('/en-{country}',                  function(){ return view('www.index'); });
    Route::get('/es-{country}',                  function(){ return view('www.index'); });

    Route::post('en-{country}'/contact',         ['as' => 'contact-en',          'uses'=>'FrontEndController@contact']);
    Route::post('es-{country}'/contacto',        ['as' => 'contact-es',          'uses'=>'FrontEndController@contact']);
});

Or use lang and country variables to get language value.

Route::group(['middleware' => ['pulsar.navtools']], function() {
    Route::get('/',                   function(){ return view('www.index'); });

    Route::get('/{lang}-{country}',                  function(){ return view('www.index'); });

    Route::post('/{lang}-{country}/contact',         ['as' => 'contact-en',          'uses'=>'FrontEndController@contact']);
});

Helper [user_country()]

Get country from user, a simple case

user_country(); // get country user

Helper [user_lang()]

Get lang from user, a simple case

user_lang(); // get language user

Helper [nt_route()]

To set routes you need to add lang or country parameters depending on NAVTOOLS_URL_TYPE.

route('routeName', ['lang' => 'en', 'country' => 'us']);

You can use a custom helper nt_route(), this helper inserts automatically variables lang and country, unless you specify these variables.

nt_route('routeName');

You can use redirect() helper without any trouble, we have extended Laravel core so that redirect()->route() does the same as nt_route().

Helper [change_lang()]

You can change the language with change_lang helper

change_lang('en');

Helper [change_country()]

You can change the country with change_country helper

change_country('us');

Helper [active_route()]

Active route is a helper for to know when any route is active, has this properties:

  • route:string|array = Route name or array of route names to target
  • calls:string default:null = If isset this variable, helper will return the indicated string or a boolean
  • firstOccurrence:float = Check that the first section of the url matches the route

A simple case

<a class="{{ active_route('home', 'active') }}" href="{{ route('home') }}">HOME</a>

case with multiples routes

<a class="{{ active_route(['home', 'home-en', 'home-es'], 'active') }}" href="{{ route('home') }}">HOME</a>

case with nested route

<a class="{{ active_route('product', 'active', true) }}" href="{{ route('product-01') }}">PRODUCT</a>
