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

[](#installation)

```
composer require vectorwyse/locale-switcher
php artisan migrate
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Add list of supported locales and descriptions in `config/app.php`. Make sure you have all the language files!

```
'available_locales' => [
    'en' => 'English',
    'es_es' => 'Español',
    'zh_TW' => '中文',
],
```

### Nova

[](#nova)

If you are using Nova, add the following to your header template:

```
@include('locale-switcher::nova-dropdown')
```

This will add a `` component. If you would like to style any of the elements within the template, pass in an `$attributes` array. We currently only support the elements listed below:

```
@include('locale-switcher::nova-dropdown', ['attributes' => [
    'dropdown' => ['class' => 'ml-auto h-9 flex items-center dropdown-right'],
    'dropdown-trigger' => ['class' => 'h-9 flex items-center text-90'],
    'dropdown-menu' => ['width' => '200', 'direction' => 'rtl'],
    'a' => ['class' => 'block no-underline text-90 hover:bg-30 p-3'],
]])
```

If you would like to override the existing template completely and style your own, put the code in `resources/views/vendor/locale-switcher/nova-dropdown.blade.php`
