Automatically translate your lang files

This package translates your Laravel localization files automatically using a third party service. Currently only supports DeepL.

This package only works with 'Short Keys' approach

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require --dev javidalpe/laravel-localization-automation

If you're on Laravel 5.4 or earlier, you'll need to add the following to your config/app.php:

'providers' => [
    ...
    Javidalpe\LaravelLocalizationAutomation\LaravelLocalizationAutomationServiceProvider::class,
];

Usage

This command translates all your files in /lang/{from}/ directory and create the new ones in /lang/{to}/ directory.

php artisan localization:translate {from} {to} {--provider=deepl}

Example using default provider:

php artisan localization:translate es fr

Example using custom provider:

php artisan localization:translate es fr --provider=deepl

Known issues

The command will fail on:

1. Lemmas with HTML inside.

   \\Wrong
   'welcome.greetings' => '<strong>Hey!</strong>',
   \\Good
   'welcome.greetings' => 'Hey!',
   

2. Lemmas with placeholders different from Laravel.

   \\Wrong
   'welcome.greetings' => 'Hey {{name}}!',
   \\Good
   'welcome.greetings' => 'Hey!',
   

3. URLs. Fix these URLs manually.

Supported Languages

Deeply

DeepL(y) supports these languages:

DeepL says they will add more languages in the future, such as Chinese and Russian.

How it works

1. Foreach file in /lang/{from}/ directory.
2. Foreach lemma in file.
3. Split pluralization lemmas.
4. Replace each Laravel place-holder with temp string.
5. Translate the lemma using the provider.
6. Undo replacement.
7. Assembly all lemmas in new files at /lang/{to}/ directory.
