Laravel L10n

At a glance

Add lang() to a route and list the languages it should be available in. Translate its URI in your language files, if you want to:

Route::get('/products/{product}', [ProductController::class, 'show'])
    ->lang(['es', 'it'])
    ->name('products.show');

return [
    'products/{product}' => 'productos/{product}',
];

Your application now serves the same page in three languages, each one with its own URL and its own application locale:

• /products/42 in English
• /es/productos/42 in Spanish
• /it/products/42 in Italian

Links keep working as before, and follow the language of the page the user is reading:

route('products.show', $product); // current language
route('products.show', [$product, 'lang' => 'es']); // "/es/productos/42"

Built on Laravel

laravel-l10n adds a single method to your routes and relies on what Laravel already provides for everything else:

• the fallback locale from config/app.php is the language of your original routes;
• language files in lang/ hold the translated URIs, next to your other translations;
• the route() and action() helpers, redirects and signed URLs generate localized URLs without new APIs;
• route caching, middleware, route model binding and route groups work as usual on translated routes;
• the HasLocalePreference interface, already used by notifications and mailables, provides the user's preferred language.

If you know Laravel's routing, you already know most of laravel-l10n.
