README

Laravel Translatable is a package for easily attaching arbitrary translation data to Eloquent Models.

Features

• One-to-many polymorphic relationship allows attaching translated data to Eloquent models without needing to adjust the database schema.

Installation & Setup

You can install the package via composer:

composer require rahmanramsi/laravel-translatable

You can publish and run the migrations with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="translatable-migrations"
php artisan migrate

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="translatable-config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    'model' => Translate::class,
];

Making a model translatable

The required steps to make a model translatable are:

• First, you need to add the RahmanRamsi\LaravelTranslatable\HasTranslations trait.
• Next, you should create a public property $translatable which holds an array with all the names of attributes you wish to make translatable.

Here's an example of a prepared model:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use RahmanRamsi\LaravelTranslatable\HasTranslations;

class Post extends Model
{
    use HasTranslations;

    public array $translatable = ['title'];
}

Basic Usage

Getting and setting translations

First, you must prepare your model as instructed in the installation instructions.

Setting a translation

Here's an example, given that name is a translatable attribute:

$post->title = 'hello';

Changes automatically saved

To set a translation for a specific locale you can use this method:

public function setTranslation(string $key, string $locale, string $value)

You can set translations for multiple languages with

$translations = ['en' => 'hello', 'es' => 'hola'];

$post->setTranslations('title', $translations);

Getting a translation

The easiest way to get a translation for the current locale is to just get the property for the translated attribute. For example (given that name is a translatable attribute):

$post->title;

You can also use this method:

public function getTranslation(string $key, string $locale, bool $useFallbackLocale = true)

Getting all translations

You can get all translations by calling getTranslations() without an argument:

$post->getTranslations();

Or you can use the accessor:

$post->translations

The methods above will give you back an array that holds all translations, for example:

$post->getTranslations('title'); 
// returns ['en' => 'hello', 'es' => 'hola']

The method above returns, all locales. If you only want specific locales, pass that to the second argument of getTranslations.

public function getTranslations(string $attributeName)

Here's an example:

$translations = [
    'en' => 'Hello',
    'fr' => 'Bonjour',
    'de' => 'Hallo',
];

$newsItem->setTranslations('hello', $translations);
$newsItem->getTranslations('hello', ['en', 'fr']); // returns ['en' => 'Hello', 'fr' => 'Bonjour']

Get locales that a model has

You can get all locales that a model has by calling locales() without an argument:

$translations = ['en' => 'hello', 'es' => 'hola'];
$post->name = $translations;

$post->locales(); // returns ['en', 'es']
