Array translation strings
$langPath = base_path('resources/lang/modules/blog');
if (is_dir($langPath)) {
$this->loadTranslationsFrom($langPath, 'blog');
} else {
$this->loadTranslationsFrom(__DIR__ .'/../Resources/lang', 'blog');
}
use in blade {{ __(blog::foo) }}
will searched in:
/lang/modules/en/foo.php
/Modules/Blog/Resources/lang/en/foo.php
JSON translation strings
To use the translation strings as keys you will need to place a JSON lang file in Modules/ModuleName/resources/lang
ie fr.json for French.
The file can contain your language variants:
{
"Hello World": "Bonjour le monde"
}
By default, modules look for lang/en/messages.php
file to tell the module to use JSON translations instead.
Find
if (is_dir($langPath)) {
$this->loadTranslationsFrom($langPath, $this->moduleNameLower);
} else {
$this->loadTranslationsFrom(module_path($this->moduleName, ‘Resources/lang’), $this->moduleNameLower);
}
And swap the loadTranslationsFrom
to loadJsonTranslationsFrom
Now you can use JSON translations in your controllers and views:
<div>
<lable for="name">{{ __('Name') }}</lable>
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="{{ old('name') }}">
</div>
<div>
<lable for="subject">{{ __('Subject') }}</lable>
<input type="text" name="subject" id="subject" value="{{ old('subject') }}">
</div>
The French fr.json file would contain:
{
"Name": "Nom",
"Subject": "Sujette",
}
