Installation

To install LangifyLaravel, use Composer:

composer require hichemtab-tech/langify-laravel

Usage

Once installed, you can use LangifyLaravel to generate language files for your Laravel application. Here's an example of how to use it:

1- Create the source language file: Start by creating the language file for your source language (e.g., 'en') with all the string resources you want to translate. This will act as the base for generating other language files.

2- Generate language files: Use the generate command provided by LangifyLaravel to generate language files for other languages. For example, if your source language is 'en', you can run the following command:

php artisan langs:generate en

This will generate language files for all the languages defined in your application. By default, LangifyLaravel will complete the missing translations in the generated files based on the source language.

Command options

overwrite existing translations

Force overwrite (optional): If you want to force overwrite existing translations in the generated files, you can use the --overwrite option:

php artisan langs:generate en --overwrite

This will force overwrite existing translations with the ones from the source language.

generate language files for specific languages

Customizing language generation: If you have some languages already created and want to generate translations only for specific languages, you can specify them as a comma-separated list:

php artisan langs:generate en
> Which languages do you want to generate? (comma separated) fr,es,it

This will generate language files only for the specified languages (in this case, 'fr', 'es', and 'it').

Example

Assuming you have already set up the language files for 'en', and you want to generate language files for 'fr', 'es', and 'it', you can use the following command:

php artisan langs:generate en

> Which languages do you want to generate? (comma separated) fr,it

You want to generate language files for 'fr', 'es', and 'it', so you can answer :

> fr,es,it
