Installation:

• composer require keasy9/laravel-localize
• php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Keasy9\Localize\Providers\LocalizeServiceProvider'
• php artisan migrate

Usage:

Adding uri-prefix:

At first you need to add available locales in config/localize.php. By default here is two locales:

'available_locales' => [
    'ru' => 'русский',
    'en' => 'english',
],

And add prefix for your app's routes:

namespace App\Providers;

use Keasy9\Localize\Facades\Localize;

class RouteServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{

    public function boot(): void
    {

        $this->routes(function () {
            //...

            Route::middleware('web')
                ->prefix(Localize::getLocalePrefix()) //prefix
                ->group(base_path('routes/web.php'));
        });
    }
}

Or in routes/web.php:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use Keasy9\Localize\Facades\Localize;

Route::prefix(Localize::getLocalePrefix())->group(function() {
    //...
});

Localize model fields:

Firstly you need run command php artisan migrate that creates table "translations" in your DB. Secondly all models that need translation must use trait and have property:

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Keasy9\Localize\Traits\HasTranslations;

class Post extends Model
{
    use HasTranslations;

    // the array must include all fields that can be translated
    public static array $translated = [
        'title',
        'text',
    ];

}

so when you try to get a model attribute you will get a translated version of it:

{{ $post->title }} {{-- will returns title translated to current app locale --}}

Also you can translate all attributes:

$post->translate();

but be carefully. If you save translated model, fields in your database will be translated:

use App/Models/Post;

$post->translate()->save();
dd(Post->find($post->id)->title); //will dump translated title

Translate all attributes for all models in collection:

$posts->translate();

Web-interface for editing lang/**.json files and localize models:

This package also provides a simple web interface at http(s)://yourSiteRoot/localize/. But if you need to change this URI, you can do it through the configuration in config/localize.php:

'uri' => 'localize',

You can also specify a middleware to access that URL or remove it to open access to all users:

'access' => ['web','auth'],

All models added to the configuration will be available for translation via the web interface:

'translated_models' => [
    Post::class
],

And you can exclude default locale from editing also in config:

'default_locale' => 'en',
'translate_default_locale' => false,

Now it's time for you to create an amazing web application!
