PHP i18n

Simple PHP i18n, _(*1)

Some of its features:, _(*2)

• Translations in ini-files
• Return array of translation (suitable also for Mustache engine template)

Setup

To use the i18n class, look at the test/example.php or test/example_mustache.php and test/example_mustache.html. You will find there a simple tutorial for this class in the file. Otherwise follow these easy five steps:, _(*3)

1. Create language files

To use this class, you have to use ini files for the translated strings. This could look like this:, _(*4)

greeting = "Hello World!"

[category]
somethingother = "Something other..."

de.ini (German), _(*6)

greeting = "Hallo Welt!"

[category]
somethingother = "Etwas anderes..."

2. Initialize the class

example.php, _(*7)

$data = [
    'file_path' => 'languages/{LANGUAGE}.ini',
];
$configVo = new \Biniweb\I18n\Vo\I18nConfigVo($data);

$l = \Biniweb\I18n\I18n::getInstance()->init($configVo);

3. Use the localizations

example.php, _(*8)

<p>A greeting: <?php echo $l['greeting']; ?> </p>
<p>Something other: <?php echo $l['category_somethingother']; ?> </p>

Mustache

2. Initialize the class with Mustache

example_mustache.php, _(*9)

$data = [
    'file_path' => 'languages/{LANGUAGE}.ini',
];
$configVo = new \Biniweb\I18n\Vo\I18nConfigVo($data);

$l = \Biniweb\I18n\I18n::getInstance()->init($configVo);

$content = join('', file('example_mustache.html'));

$engine = new Mustache_Engine();

echo $engine->render($content, [
    'l' => $l,
]);

3. html template

example_mustache.html, _(*10)

<p>A greeting: {{#l}} {{greeting}} {{/l}}</p>
<p>Something other: {{#l}} {{category_somethingother}} {{/l}}</p>
