A simple localization library.

Notes
-----

[](#notes)

This whole package is hugely inspired by [mcamara/laravel-localization](https://github.com/mcamara/laravel-localization), we wanted something simpler, with support for PHP IntlDateFormatter, so we made our package.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require lase-peco/localization
```

Then in your Web kernel file `app/Http/Kernel.php` in the `web` array in `$middlewareGroups`, add this line to the end of the array:

```
'web' => [
     // Other middlewares
     //
     \LasePeco\Localization\Http\Middleware\Localization::class,
],
```

Then publish the config file `localization.php` with the following command to define your application languages:

```
php artisan  vendor:publish --provider="LasePeco\Localization\LocalizationServiceProvider"
```
