Utility and classes to facilitate gettext style translations in PHP
Usage
Example file simple.php:
/* detect current language */ if (isset($_GET['locale'])) { $locale = $_GET['locale']; } else { $locale = 'en_CA'; } //if /* setup environment */ putenv("LANG=" . $locale); putenv("LANGUAGE=" . $locale); setlocale(LC_ALL, $locale); /* setup extractor */ $extractor = new \Lexiconic\Extractor\GettextExtractor('application', __DIR__ .'/locale/'); /* get term functions */ $_ = $extractor->getTermFunction(); /* Use string extractor function */ echo $_('Ok this is simple enough'), PHP_EOL;
To scan files for terms you would run something like:
xgettext --language=PHP \\ --keyword=_:1 --keyword=_:1,2c \\ --keyword=_n:1,2 --keyword=_n:1,2,4c \\ --output=./locale/simple.po ./simple.php
