Lost in Translation

This package helps to find missing translation strings in your Laravel blade files.

Installation

You can easily install this package using Composer, by running the following command:

composer require coding-socks/lost-in-translation --dev

Usage

You can list all missing translation for a specific location using the command below.

php artisan lost-in-translation:find {locale}

Example:

php artisan lost-in-translation:find nl

It is sometimes recommended to increase the verbosity using -v flag. In verbose mode the command will print warnings and errors to the standard output.

Publish

Publish the configuration file only:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=lost-in-translation-config

Publish the Command class only:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=lost-in-translation-commands

Defaults

The command considers app.locale as your applications default locale.

The command scans your lang directory for comparison with the default and target locale.

The command scans your app, and resources/views directory for translation retrieval.

The command detects the following in your blade and application files:

@lang('key') Blade directives are compiled to app('translator')->get('key')
__('key') any call to the __ function
trans('key') any call to the trans function
trans_choice('key', x) any call to the trans_choice function
app('translator')->get('key') any direct getmethod call on the translator
App::make('translator')->get('key') any direct get method call on the translator
Lang::get('key') any get static call on the Lang facade
<<<'blade' inline components in nowdoc with blade label are compiled and their content is scanned.

Implementation

This implementation reads all your blade files, compiles them to PHP (illuminate/view), parses them as PHP (nikic/php-parser), and then finds the relevant nodes in the AST.

This, in my opinion, is a cleaner and less error-prone than using regular expressions.
