README

Integrates the Symfony Translation component with PHPNomad's phpnomad/translate abstraction. It supplies a single TranslationStrategy implementation backed by Symfony's TranslatorInterface, so applications that call the PHPNomad translation API can resolve strings through a configured Symfony translator without changing any call sites.

Installation

composer require phpnomad/symfony-translation-integration

What This Provides

• PHPNomad\Symfony\Translation\Strategies\TranslationStrategy, a concrete implementation of PHPNomad\Translations\Interfaces\TranslationStrategy that delegates translate() and translatePlural() calls to Symfony's TranslatorInterface::trans().
• Disambiguation context is encoded using gettext's msgctxt convention (the \x04 EOT separator), so catalogues loaded from gettext .po/.mo files resolve contextual strings correctly.
• Pluralization uses Symfony's %count% parameter convention, which lines up with Symfony's ICU and legacy plural format loaders.

Requirements

• phpnomad/translate ^2.0, which defines the TranslationStrategy interface along with the HasTextDomain and HasLanguage providers
• symfony/translation-contracts ^2.5 or ^3.0, which defines TranslatorInterface
• A configured Symfony translator with your catalogues loaded (the full symfony/translation package or any implementation of TranslatorInterface)

Usage

Bind the concrete strategy to the interface inside your PHPNomad bootstrapper. The strategy takes three constructor dependencies: the Symfony translator, a HasTextDomain provider that returns the active text domain, and a HasLanguage provider that returns the target locale (or null to fall back to the translator's default).

<?php

use PHPNomad\Symfony\Translation\Strategies\TranslationStrategy;
use PHPNomad\Translations\Interfaces\HasLanguage;
use PHPNomad\Translations\Interfaces\HasTextDomain;
use PHPNomad\Translations\Interfaces\TranslationStrategy as TranslationStrategyInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Translation\Loader\ArrayLoader;
use Symfony\Component\Translation\Translator;
use Symfony\Contracts\Translation\TranslatorInterface;

$container->bind(TranslatorInterface::class, function () {
    $translator = new Translator('en_US');
    $translator->addLoader('array', new ArrayLoader());
    $translator->addResource('array', ['hello' => 'Hello'], 'en_US', 'messages');

    return $translator;
});

$container->bind(HasTextDomain::class, MyTextDomainProvider::class);
$container->bind(HasLanguage::class, MyLanguageProvider::class);
$container->bind(TranslationStrategyInterface::class, TranslationStrategy::class);

Once bound, any code that resolves TranslationStrategy from the container will route through Symfony.
