Installation
============

[](#installation)

Install the package via composer:

```
composer require nh/translatable

```

Publish the config files for the translatable: *You can define the available languages in this config file*

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=translatable

```

To make a model translatable, add the **Translatable** trait to your model:

```
use Nh\Translatable\Traits\Translatable;

use Translatable;

```

If you need to customize the insertion for the translation you can add to your model:

```
/**
  * Default translatable option.
  *
  * @var array
  */
protected $translatable = [
    'automatic' => false
];

```

And simply set the translations with the function **$model->setTranslations(\['en' => \['name' => 'English'\],'de' => \['name' => 'Deutsch'\]\])**.

Route
-----

[](#route)

To make a route translatable, add the middleware **localization** and the prefixe **{locale}** to your route:

```
Route::middleware('localization')->prefix('{locale}')->get('/', function () {
    return view('welcome');
});

```

And for redirect if url is ** to **

```
Route::middleware('localization')->get('/', function () {
  return redirect()->route('welcome');
});

```

Change the language
-------------------

[](#change-the-language)

You can change the language of the website by using the **localization** route:

```
@foreach (config('translatable.languages') as $key => $value)

    {{ $value }}

@endforeach

```

Javascript
----------

[](#javascript)

If you need to display/hide elements by lang you can use the JS file: *This is a global change in the current page, not for a specific zone !*

```
require('../../vendor/nh/translatable/resources/js/translatable');

```

Then in your html add the links with the class **.lang-toggle** and the data attribute **data-lang**: *To display a different value than the abbreviation of the language, you can add the attribute data-lang-value*

```
The current language is: Français

  FR
  EN

```

And add the data attribute **data-lang** to the content to filter by lang:

```

  Uniquement en Français

  Only in english

  Multiple languages

```

Exemples
========

[](#exemples)

Exemple for a form with multiple translations to insert.

Add Somewhere the language toggle with all the available languages:

```

  {{ config('translatable.default') }}

    @foreach (config('translatable.languages') as $key => $value)
      {{ $value }}
    @endforeach

```

And the inputs for all the available languages:

```
Title

@foreach (Arr::except(config('translatable.languages'), config('translatable.default')) as $key => $value)

@endforeach

```

Events
======

[](#events)

You can use the **TranslationEvent** for dispatch events that happen to the addresses. *You can pass a name, the parent model, the translation model (or null) and the number of translations affected*

```
TranslationEvent::dispatch('my-event', $model, $translation, 1);

```
