This is a function that I've used a while back in a Class.
You have to generate your language files like en.txt or de.txt.
In your PHP code you will call the function and the string $contet->__('translate me');
In your de.txt you will have on each line a separate text.
translate me=übersetzen mich
You will have to set your language based on your user settings.
$language = $this->selectLanguage();
$this->language = $language;
Then call the following function with $content->__('translate me');
and you should have your text translated.
public function findString($str) {
if (array_key_exists($str, $this->lang[$this->language])) {
return $this->lang[$this->language][$str];
}
return $str;
}
/**
* after the text is found your explode it by =
* @param string $str
* @returneaza Returns the exploded string
*/
public function splitStrings($str) {
return explode('=',trim($str));
}
/**
* Function that translates the text
* it the words/translation are found, if not, default language will be the written native language
* @param string $str
* @returneaza returns a translaton trough splitString();
*/
public function __($str) {
if (!array_key_exists($this->language, $this->lang)) {
if (file_exists($this->language.'.txt')) {
$strings = array_map(array($this,'splitStrings'),file($this->language.'.txt'));
foreach ($strings as $k => $v) {
$this->lang[$this->language][$v[0]] = $v[1];
}
return $this->findString($str);
}
else {
return $str;
}
}
else {
return $this->findString($str);
}
}
