Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

SlmLocale is a Zend Framework 2 module to automatically detect a locale for your application. It uses a variety of pluggable strategies to search for a valid locale. SlmLocale features a default locale, a set of supported locales and locale aliases.

SlmLocale supports out of the box several strategies to search for a locale. Through interfaces, other strategies could be created. The set of default stragies is:

1. The HTTP `Accept-Language` header
2. A cookie to store the locale between several sessions of one visitor
3. A query parameter to easily switch from locale
4. The first segment of the path of an uri
5. A part of the domain name (either the TLD or a subdomain)

Furthermore, it provides a set of additional localisation features:

1. A default locale, used as fallback
2. A set of aliases, so you can map `.com` as "en-US" in the host name strategy
3. Redirect to the right domain/path when a locale is found
4. View helpers to create a localised uri or a list of language switches
