Laravel Multilingual Routes

Latest Version on Packagist Build Status Quality Score Total Downloads

A package to register multilingual routes for your application.

Versioning

Version Laravel Version
v4 10.x
v3 9.x
v2 Older than 9.x

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require chinleung/laravel-multilingual-routes

To detect and change the locale of the application based on the request automatically, you can add the middleware to your app/Http/Kernel. It must be the first item in the web middleware group.

protected $middlewareGroups = [
    'web' => [
        \ChinLeung\MultilingualRoutes\DetectRequestLocale::class,
        // ...
    ]
];

Configuration

By default, the application locales are only going to be en and the default locale is not prefixed. If you want to prefix the default locale, please run the following command to publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="ChinLeung\MultilingualRoutes\MultilingualRoutesServiceProvider" --tag="config"

If your application supports different locales, you can either set a app.locales configuration or follow the configuration instructions from chinleung/laravel-locales.

Example

Instead of doing this:

Route::get('/', 'ShowHomeController')->name('en.home');
Route::get('/fr', 'ShowHomeController')->name('fr.home');

You can accomplish the same result with:

Route::multilingual('/', 'ShowHomeController')->name('home');

A demo repository has been setup to showcase the basic usage of the package.

Usage

Quick Usage

Once you have configured the locales, you can start adding routes like the following example in your routes/web.php:

Route::multilingual('test', 'TestController');

This will generate the following:

Method URI Name Action
GET|HEAD test en.test App\Http\Controllers\TestController
GET|HEAD fr/teste fr.test App\Http\Controllers\TestController

Note the URI column is generated from a translation file located at resources/lang/{locale}/routes.php which contains the key of the route like the following:

<?php

// resources/lang/fr/routes.php

return [
  'test' => 'teste'
];

To retrieve a route, you can use the localized_route(string $name, array $parameters, string $locale = null, bool $absolute = true) instead of the route helper:

localized_route('test'); // Returns the url of the current application locale
localized_route('test', [], 'fr'); // Returns https://app.test/fr/teste
localized_route('test', [], 'en'); // Returns https://app.test/test

To retrieve the current route in another locale, you can use the current_route(string $locale = null) helper:

current_route(); // Returns the current request's route
current_route('fr'); // Returns the current request's route in French version
current_route('fr', route('fallback')); // Returns the fallback route if the current route is not registered in French

Renaming the routes

Route::multilingual('test', 'TestController')->name('foo');
Method URI Name Action
GET|HEAD test en.foo App\Http\Controllers\TestController
GET|HEAD fr/teste fr.foo App\Http\Controllers\TestController

Renaming a route based on the locale

Route::multilingual('test', 'TestController')->names([
  'en' => 'foo',
  'fr' => 'bar',
]);
Method URI Name Action
GET|HEAD test en.foo App\Http\Controllers\TestController
GET|HEAD fr/teste fr.bar App\Http\Controllers\TestController

Skipping a locale

Route::multilingual('test', 'TestController')->except(['fr']);
Method URI Name Action
GET|HEAD test en.test App\Http\Controllers\TestController

Restricting to a list of locales

Route::multilingual('test', 'TestController')->only(['fr']);
Method URI Name Action
GET|HEAD fr/teste fr.test App\Http\Controllers\TestController

Changing the method of the request

Route::multilingual('test', 'TestController')->method('post');
Method URI Name Action
POST test en.test App\Http\Controllers\TestController
POST fr/teste fr.test App\Http\Controllers\TestController

Registering a view route

// Loads test.blade.php
Route::multilingual('test');
Method URI Name Action
GET|HEAD test en.test Illuminate\Routing\ViewController
GET|HEAD fr/teste fr.test Illuminate\Routing\ViewController

Registering a view route with a different key for the route and view

// Loads welcome.blade.php instead of test.blade.php
Route::multilingual('test')->view('welcome');
Method URI Name Action
GET|HEAD test en.test Illuminate\Routing\ViewController
GET|HEAD fr/teste fr.test Illuminate\Routing\ViewController

Passing data to the view

Route::multilingual('test')->data(['name' => 'Taylor']);
Route::multilingual('test')->view('welcome', ['name' => 'Taylor']);

Redirect localized route

Route::multilingual('support');
Route::multilingual('contact')->redirect('support');

Check localized route

Request::localizedRouteIs('home');

Upgrading from 1.x to 2.x

To update from 1.x to 2.x, you simply have to rename the namespace occurrences in your application from LaravelMultilingualRoutes to MultilingualRoutes. The most common use case would be the DetectRequestLocale middleware.

Testing

composer test
