README

This Extension is based in lajax/yii2-translate-manager that was ported for works with Bootstrap 5 and Php 8.3 by KrishDemonDog.

Introduction

This extension provides a simple translating interface for the multilingual elements of your project. This extension offers:

• Scan - Automatically detect new elements of the language. Duplications are filtered out automatically during project scanning.
• Optimize - Unused language elements will be removed from the database.
• Import - Import your translations from .json or .xml file.
• Export - Export your translations to .json or .xml file.
• You can exclude files, folders or categories to prevent them from being translated.

        'allowedIPs' => ['0.0.0.0'],  // optional     IP addresses from which the translation interface is accessible. For Default is ['127.0.0.1']
        'roles' => ['@'],   // optional     For setting access levels to the translating interface. For Default is []
        'tmpDir' => '@example',     // optional     Writable directory for the client-side temporary javascript language files. Can be '@backend/runtime'. For Default is '@runtime'
        'ignoredCategories' => ['example'],     // optional     These categories won't be scanned. For Default is ['yii']
        'onlyCategories' => ['example'],    // optional     Only these categories will be scanned. For Default is []
        'ignoredItems' => ['example'],   // optional     These files will not be processed. For Default is ['.svn', '.git', '.gitignore', '.gitkeep', '.hgignore', '.hgkeep', '/messages', '/BaseYii.php', 'runtime', 'bower', 'nikic']

                'columns' => ['example1', 'example2'],    // Names of columns
                'category' => 'database-table-name',

Usage

Register Translate Manager scripts

To translate static messages in JavaScript files it is necessary to register the files. You have two ways to do it.

Call the following method in each action:

\DemonDogSL\translateManager\helpers\Language::registerAssets();

Or create a Controller that extends Yii Controller

IMPORTANT All your Controllers must extend this New Controller

namespace backend\controllers;

use DemonDogSL\translateManager\helpers\Language;

class Controller extends \yii\web\Controller {

    public function init() {
        Language::registerAssets();
        parent::init();
    }
}

Activate Translate Mode

This is Optional.

Display a button to switch text to translation mode.

// Default
echo \DemonDogSL\translateManager\widgets\ToggleTranslate::widget();

// If you want change position
echo \DemonDogSL\translateManager\widgets\ToggleTranslate::widget([
    'position' => 'example',  // optional   Can be 'top-left', 'top-right', 'bottom-left' or 'bottom-right'. For Default is 'bottom-left'
]);

Examples of use

• JavaScript

ddt.t('Hello');
ddt.t('Hello {name}!', {name:'World'});

• PHP

Yii::t('example', 'Hello');
Yii::t('example', 'Hello {name}!', ['name' => 'World']);

• Translate Mode Button

IMPORTANT Translate Mode Button does not support the translation of HTML attributes

use DemonDogSL\translateManager\models\DDT;

DDT::t('example', 'Hello');
DDT::t('example', 'Hello {name}!', ['name' => 'World']);
