Request: Translation for Menu Links

[Nowi5]

Hi all,

with Quarx I can translate all my pages and blog entries, which can have different links. But I can't translate menu or more specific the link name. Creating multiple Menus per Language does not make sense in my context. How can I have one menu with multiple translations per link?

Thank you.

Update on LinkRepository

1. Add

   protected $translationRepo;
   
   public function __construct()
   {
       $this->translationRepo = app(TranslationRepository::class);
   }

2. Change update

   public function update($links, $input)
   {
       $input['external'] = isset($input['external']) ? $input['external'] : 0;
   
       if (!empty($input['lang']) && $input['lang'] !== config('quarx.default-language', 'en')) {
           return $this->translationRepo->createOrUpdate($links->id, 'Yab\Quarx\Models\Link', $input['lang'], $input);
       } else {
           unset($input['lang']);
           return $links->update($input);
       }
   }

3. Add use Translatable; to Link Model

4. Change edit.blade.php

   @if (! is_null(request('lang')) && request('lang') !== config('quarx.default-language', 'en'))
               {!! FormMaker::fromObject($links->translationData(request('lang')), Config::get('quarx.forms.link')) !!}
           @else
               {!! FormMaker::fromObject($links, Config::get('quarx.forms.link')) !!}
           @endif

5. Change main-menu.blade.php to something like that:

   @if ((config('app.locale') !== config('quarx.default-language')))
       @if ($link->translation(config('app.locale')) !== null)
           @if ($link->external)
               <li><a href="{{ url($link->translation(config('app.locale'))->data->external_url) }}">{{ $link->translation(config('app.locale'))->data->name }}</a></li>
           @else
               <li><a href="{{ url(Config::get('app.locale_prefix').'/'.\Yab\Quarx\Models\Page::find($link->page_id)->url) }}">{{ $link->translation(config('app.locale'))->data->name }}
               </a></li>
           @endif
       @endif
   @else
       @if ($link->external)
           <li><a href="{{ url($link->external_url) }}">{{ $link->name }}</a></li>
       @else
           <li><a href="{{ url(Config::get('app.locale_prefix').'/'.\Yab\Quarx\Models\Page::find($link->page_id)->url) }}">{{ $link->name }}
           </a></li>
       @endif
   @endif

Based on general feedback I'm doing a full review and refactoring of translations and will be including menus in this process. #132
