The package provides message storage backend based on PHP arrays to be used with [`yiisoft/translator`](https://github.com/yiisoft/translator) package.

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

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.0 - 8.5.

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

[](#installation)

The package could be installed with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org):

```
composer require yiisoft/translator-message-php
```

General usage
-------------

[](#general-usage)

The package is meant to be used with [`yiisoft/translator`](https://github.com/yiisoft/translator):

```
use Yiisoft\Translator\CategorySource;
use Yiisoft\Translator\IntlMessageFormatter;
use Yiisoft\Translator\Message\Php\MessageSource;

$categorySource = new CategorySource(
    'my-category',
    new MessageSource('/path/to/messages'),
    new IntlMessageFormatter(),
);
```

The examples below are about using it separately.

### Create an instance of message source

[](#create-an-instance-of-message-source)

```
/** @var string $path - full path to your translations */
$messageSource = new \Yiisoft\Translator\Message\Php\MessageSource($path);
```

### Read a message without `yiisoft/translator` package

[](#read-a-message-without-yiisofttranslator-package)

```
/**
 * @var \Yiisoft\Translator\Message\Php\MessageSource $messageSource
 * @var ?string $translatedString
 */
$id = 'messageIdentifier';
$category = 'messageCategory';
$language = 'de-DE';

$translatedString = $messageSource->getMessage($id, $category, $language);
```

### Write an array of messages to storage

[](#write-an-array-of-messages-to-storage)

```
/**
 * @var \Yiisoft\Translator\Message\Php\MessageSource $messageSource
 */
$category = 'messageCategory';
$language = 'de-DE';
$data = [
    'test.id1' => [
        'message' => 'Nachricht 1', // translated string
        'comment' => 'Comment for message 1', // is optional parameter for save extra metadata
    ],
    'test.id2' => [
        'message' => 'Nachricht 2',
    ],
    'test.id3' => [
        'message' => 'Nachricht 3',
    ],
];

$messageSource->write($category, $language, $data);
```

The following structure will be created after writing:

```
📁 path_to_your_storage
  📁 de-DE
     🗎 messageCategory.php

```
