• csv-url Add the Google spreadsheet published url.

'csv-url' => 'http://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1V_cHt5Fe4x9XwVepvlXB39sqKXD3xs_QbM-NppkrE4A/export?format=csv'

• target-folder This folder will be in your storage folder and it just saves a backup of your strings in JSON format. By default is lazy-strings.

'target-folder' => 'lazy-strings'

• strings-route This is the route that will be used to generate the strings. Visit http://my-app.com/lazy/build-copy and your strings will be updated. By default is build-copy. The route will always be under the lazy prefix.

'strings-route' => 'build-copy'

• nested Whether or not you wish your generated strings array to be nested.

'nested' => true,

• sheets Here you'll specify all the sheets in your Google doc.

'sheets' => [
    'en' => [0, 1626663029],
    'es' => 1329731586,
    'pt' => 1443604037
]

How it works

Lazy Strings uses an id => value convention to access the copy, it generates an lazy.php file inside the language locale folder. You can see an example doc here: https://docs.google.com/a/nobox.com/spreadsheets/d/1V_cHt5Fe4x9XwVepvlXB39sqKXD3xs_QbM-NppkrE4A/edit#gid=0., _(*8)

In this doc you can access the first row in your view like this:, _(*9)

trans('lazy.foo') // returns "Hello!"

Or in your controller like this:, _(*10)

Lang::get('lazy.foo'); // returns "Hello!"

Generate your strings

Each time you need to generate your strings just visit the specified strings-route in your configuration. The route will always be under the lazy prefix. For example: http://my-app.com/lazy/build-copy, _(*11)

You can also use the included artisan command php artisan lazy:deploy. It will do exactly the same. This is perfect when you're deploying your application with Forge or Envoyer., _(*12)
