AutoLang
========

[](#autolang)

AutoLang is a small package for Laravel applications which automatically detects the users browser language and sets this language with the `App::setLocale()` command.

It uses `Session` to temporarily save the language, so it doesn't need to detect the language on every request. Furthermore you can tell AutoLang which language to use, e.g. if a user wants to switch to another language than the browser has set.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

#### Get the package

[](#get-the-package)

Use the command line to get AutoLang:

```
composer require kuenzelit/auto-lang:dev-master

```

**OR** put this line in your composer.json file:

```
"kuenzelit/auto-lang": "dev-master",

```

#### Service Provider

[](#service-provider)

Add the service provider to your list of providers in `app.php`:

```
"Kuenzelit/AutoLang/AutoLangServiceProvider",

```

#### Alias

[](#alias)

If you like, you can register an alias by putting this line in your `aliases` array

```
'AutoLang' => 'Kuenzelit\AutoLang\Facades\AutoLang',

```

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

[](#configuration)

You may use artisan to publish the configuration file and edit it to specify the languages you're offering:

```
php artisan config:publish kuenzelit/auto-lang

```

Interface
---------

[](#interface)

The `AutoLang`-Facade provides 4 methods: `set`, `get`, `availableLanguages` and `detectLanguage`:

```
/**
 * Overrides the currently detected language and sets it to the $lang param.
 * $lang has to be from the array of available languages.
 *
 * @param $lang
 * @throws \Exception
 */
public function set($lang)

/**
 * Returns the current language.
 * @return mixed
 */
public function get()

/**
 * Returns the array of available languages. Can be set in the packages config.php.
 *
 * @return array
 */
public function availableLanguages()

/**
 * Returns the language of the users browser.
 *
 * @return string
 */
public function detectLanguage()
```
