maniakalen/yii2-dbtranslate

Translation package for database storage of translations

yii2-translations

PHP db translations engine, _(*1)

The package is also available in packagist: "maniakalen/yii2-dbtranslate", _(*2)

To enable the module inside the yii2 you need to define the module in the main config module part:, _(*3)

'translations' => [
    'class' => 'maniakalen\i18n\Module'
],

You also need to add the module key to the bootstrap list:, _(*4)

'bootstrap' => [..., 'translations'],

Then you will need to run the module migrations, _(*5)

yii migrate/up --migrationPath="@translations/migrations/"

The categories are automatically registered in the translation system when module is bootstrapped., _(*6)

In project when you have translations in database you can retreive by using:, _(*7)

Yii::t('<category>', '<label>');

Admin interface can be configured for Menu widget for example as:, _(*8)

[
    'label' => function() { return Yii::t('yii', 'Translations control'); },
    'url' => ['/translations/admin/languages'],
    'visible' => function() { return Yii::$app->user->can('backend/translations/access'); },
    'active' => function(ActionEvent $event) {
        return strpos($event->action->getUniqueId(), 'translations/admin') === 0;
    },
    'items' => [
        [
            'label' => function() { return Yii::t('yii', 'Languages control'); },
            'url' => ['/translations/admin/languages'],
            'active' => function(ActionEvent $event) {
                return strpos($event->action->getUniqueId(), 'languages') !== false;
            },
        ],
        [
            'label' => function() { return Yii::t('yii', 'Translations control'); },
            'url' => ['/translations/admin/translations'],
            'active' => function(ActionEvent $event) {
                return strpos($event->action->getUniqueId(), 'admin/translations') !== false;
            },
        ]
    ]
]    

But you will need to provide the functionality to execute the inline callback methods. For example I use a class like MenuBehavior which has a beforeAction event and parses this configuration to a correct Menu config., _(*9)
