- [License](#license)

What is it?
-----------

[](#what-is-it)

Language manager: you can choose new language and it will be placed as `App::setLocale($lang)`

Language will be saved in SESSION and/or COOKIE

Also you can use URL

```
http://www.example.com/article/1?lang=en => http://en.example.com/en/article/1

```

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

[](#installation)

`composer require zagovorichev/laravel-languages`

Add to the **app.php** (by default in */laravel/config/app.php*) lines:

```
'providers' => [
    // ...
    Zagovorichev\Laravel\Languages\LanguageServiceProvider::class,
]
```

And new middleware into the **Kernel.php** (look in */laravel/app/Http/Kernel.php*)

```
protected $middlewareGroups = [
        'web' => [
            // ...
            \Zagovorichev\Laravel\Languages\Http\Middleware\LanguagesMiddleware\LanguagesMiddleware::class,
        ],
    ];
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Language manager provides working with sessions, cookies, path and domain.

For changing system language send request with input **lang**. For example: `?lang=es`and in application you will have Spain locale.

All configurations stored in the **languages.php** file.
For making your own configuration copy file */laravel/vendor/zagovorichev/laravel-languages/config/languages.php*to the folder */laravel/config/*.

#### Simple usage (SESSION + COOKIE)

[](#simple-usage-session--cookie)

If you need simple language manager you can use only 'session' and 'cookie' modes. Then you don't need to configure anything more.

#### Domain Map

[](#domain-map)

For using DomainMapManger in your configuration file you should matched languages and domains

```
'domainMap' => [
    'en' => 'www.example.com',
    'es' => 'es.example.com',
    'ua' => 'www.example.ua',
],

```

> ⚠️ **Notice**: Please, use only DomainMap or Domain modes, otherwise the behaviour will be unpredictable.

#### Domain

[](#domain)

Also you can provide regular expression in the configuration file.

```
'domainRegExp' => [
    'reg' => '|^(http://)([a-z]{2})[\.]{0,1}(example\.com.*)$|ui',
    'langPart' => 2,
]
```

And as a result you will have `http://www.example.en/post/234 => http://en.example.com/post/234 => http://es.example.com/post/234`

> ⚠️ **Notice**: Please, use only DomainMap or Domain modes, otherwise the behaviour will be unpredictable.

#### Path

[](#path)

Similar to domains, you can provide regular expression:

```
'pathRegExp' => [
     'reg' => '|([a-z]{2})(/.*)|ui',
     'langPart' => 1, // lang part will be replaced with new lang
 ],
```

### Modes of the languages manager

[](#modes-of-the-languages-manager)

Each store has its own manager.

- **session** - store in the $\_SESSION
- **cookie** - store in the browser $\_COOKIES
- **domainMap** - you can define map if you have different domain which can't be described with simple regular expression
- **domain** - use domain name for determining current language ([www.example.com](http://www.example.com), en.example.com, es.example.com...)
- **path** - use uri for language example.com/en/address
