How to get a list of items according to this logic #460

Closed Chalkin closed 6 years ago

Chalkin commented 6 years ago

Hey Guys,

I'm trying to figure out on how to get all Posts as the following:

Assumption: Every blog post does have a translation in the default language of en.

Posts: Post 1 (Has en, de, es) Post 2 (Has en, de) Post 3 (Has en) Post 4 (Has en, de)

  1. When the app locale is set to 'en' it lists all posts with language en (But it should not list any duplicates. A blog post should only be listed one time, not more often)

  2. When the app locale is set to 'de' it lists all the posts with translations to german AND if there is no german translation it falls back to en. (But it should not list any duplicates. A blog post should only be listed one time, not more often)

Example if app language is set to 'en': Post 1 in en Post 2 in en Post 3 in en Post 4 in en

Example if app language is set to 'de': Post 1 in de Post 2 in de Post 3 in en Post 4 in de

If app language is set to 'es' it would list: Post 1 in es Post 2 in en Post 3 in en Post 3 in en

Just use the fallback locale and do Post::all() and loop.

Awesome! Thanks. My fake data from my seeder got me confused that's why I thought it did not work.
