Generate "XLIFF translation files" from "PHP array translation files"

This little handy Contao backend extension simply converts contao php translation files into their xliff (*.xlf) pendants. The newly generated files will be stored side by side to the already existing php files. Already existing *.xlf files will be overwritten.

Changing the source language

The source language for all Contao Core XLIFF files is English (en). If you like to change this setting you have to do this in your project config in config/config.yml.

# config/config.yml
markocupic_contao_php2xliff:
  sourceLanguage: it # Switch the source language to Italian
