Noteworthy Classes
------------------

[](#noteworthy-classes)

### AcceptedLanguage

[](#acceptedlanguage)

Encapsulates a single language that the browser accepts. This class allows you to access:

- **The two char i18n language code (i.e. en, fr, es)**.
- **The two char i18n country code (i.e. US, FR, ES)**
- **The q (the preference weight) of the language.**.

#### Examples

[](#examples)

If a browser sends: `accept-language: "en-US,en;q=0.9,fr;q=0.8"`
 Then

```
$languages = BrowserInfo::getLanguages();
$aLanguage = $languages->first();
Log::info('$aLanguage\'s language:', ['language' => $aLanguage->getLanguage()]); // en
Log::info('$aLanguage\'s country:', ['country' => $aLanguage->getCountry()]); // US
Log::info('$aLanguage\'s q:', ['language' => $aLanguage->getQ()]); // 1
```

### Languages:

[](#languages)

Languages is a collection class that inherits from Laravel's `Illuminate\Support\Collection`. Therefore, it has all the same methods as the Laravel Collection, plus some additional methods. Those methods are as follows.

#### *supports(string $lang, $strict = false)*

[](#supportsstring-lang-strict--false)

This method takes a i18n language code string (i.e. 'en', 'fr-FR', 'es-ES') as parameter to determine if the browser supports that language. By default, this method returns `true` when the browser supports the given language regardless of the country and/or variant segment of the language code. For example, accept-language: `"en-US,en;q=0.9,fr;q=0.8"`

##### Example

[](#example)

If a browser sends: `accept-language: "en-US,en;q=0.9,fr;q=0.8"`
 Then

```
$languages = BrowserInfo::getLanguages();
Log::info('Supports French', ['output' => $languages->supports('fr')]); // true
Log::info('Supports French', ['output' => $languages->supports('fr', true)]); // true
Log::info('Supports French from France strict', ['output' => $languages->supports('fr-FR')]); // false
Log::info('Supports Spanish (any)', ['output' => $languages->supports('es-ES')]); // true
```
