README

If you are using i18next in your frontend and Laravel in your backend, this package is for you.

How does it work?

The package provides the routes to fetch the translations and to save missing translations when using i18next-http-backend.
it supports Laravels JSON and PHP translation files and converts them on the fly to be compatible with i18next.

Installation

You can install the package via composer.

composer require bambamboole/laravel-i18next

Usage

The package is still in its early development and therefor pretty opinionated and not very flexible.

It provides two routes. One is for fetching the translations and the other one is for saving missing translations.

Fetching translations

The route

With Vue.js

To use the translations in your Vue.js components you can use the i18next-vue package.

npm install -D i18next-vue i18next-http-backend

To configure i18next-vue you can use the following code snippet:

import I18NextVue from 'i18next-vue';
import HttpBackend from 'i18next-http-backend'

i18next.use(HttpBackend).init({
    saveMissing: true,
    lng: 'en',
    backend: {
        // This is needed for CSRF protection
        withCredentials: true,
        customHeaders: () => {
            const csrf = document.querySelector<HTMLElement>('meta[name="csrf-token"]')

            return csrf === null ? {} : {'X-CSRF-TOKEN': csrf.getAttribute('content')}
        },
    },
});

//...

app.use(I18NextVue, {i18next})
