A simple internationalization library with support for .po and .php translation files.

```
composer require koded/i18n

```

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- intl
- gettext

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
__(string $message, array $arguments => [], string $locale = '');
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

The `I18n` class is static and should be configured somewhere in the beginning of your PHP code/script.

```
use Koded\Stdlib\Config;
use Koded\I18n\{ArrayCatalog, DefaultFormatter, I18n, I18nCatalog};

// all conf directives are optional
$config = new Config([
    'translation.catalog' => ArrayCatalog::class,
    'translation.formatter' => DefaultFormatter::class,
    'translation.dir' => '/path/to/your/translation/files',
    'translation.locale' => ['mk_MK', 'de_DE', 'it_IT'],
]);

I18n::register(I18nCatalog::new($config));
```

Translation files
-----------------

[](#translation-files)

### .po files

[](#po-files)

`poedit` is a very good app to work with your translation files.

### .php files

[](#php-files)

The translation file has a simple structure

```
return [
    'language' => '',
    'messages' => [
        // your translation strings goes here
        'original string' => 'translated string',
    ]
];
```

where `messages` contains `key => value` pairs for the translated strings.
