README

A simple, elegant, and reusable Livewire 3/4 language switcher for Laravel 11.
This package provides a ready-to-use dropdown component to switch application locales dynamically — complete with middleware, configuration, and publishable views.

✨ Features

• ⚡ Supports Livewire 3 and 4
• 🌍 Easy multi-language switching (session-based)
• ⚙️ Configurable via config/lang-selector.php
• 🎨 Publishable views for full customization
• 🧩 Simple integration with your existing layout

📦 Installation

Require the package via Composer:

composer require amrikasir/lang-selector

⚙️ Publish Config & Views

You can publish the default configuration and views to customize them:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=lang-selector-config
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=lang-selector-views

This will create:

config/lang-selector.php
resources/views/vendor/lang-selector/

🧩 Usage

1. Register Middleware

In app/Http/Kernel.php, add the middleware to your web group:

protected $middlewareGroups = [
    'web' => [
        // ...
        \Kaldiaris\LangSelector\Http\Middleware\LocaleMiddleware::class,
    ],
];

1. Add Component to Blade

Just drop the component anywhere in your layout:

<livewire:language-selector />

That’s it! 🎉
The dropdown will automatically display all available locales from your config.

⚙️ Configuration

config/lang-selector.php

return [
    'available_locales' => [
        'en' => 'English',
        'id' => 'Bahasa Indonesia',
        // add more as needed
    ],
    'default_locale' => 'en',
];

🧠 How It Works

• The LocaleMiddleware sets App::setLocale() based on the session.
• The LanguageSelector Livewire component updates session locale dynamically.
• The selected locale persists until changed again.

🧰 Example Styling

You can freely modify the published views at:

resources/views/vendor/lang-selector/livewire/language-selector.blade.php

Example minimal Tailwind version:

<div class="relative">
    <button wire:click="$toggle('open')" class="px-3 py-2 rounded bg-gray-100 hover:bg-gray-200">
        {{ $locales[$current] ?? strtoupper($current) }}
    </button>

    @if ($open ?? false)
        <div class="absolute bg-white border rounded mt-1 shadow">
            @foreach ($locales as $key => $label)
                <button wire:click="setLocale('{{ $key }}')" class="block w-full text-left px-4 py-2 hover:bg-gray-100">
                    {{ $label }}
                </button>
            @endforeach
        </div>
    @endif
</div>
