Laravel-Lang-Import-Export (Refactored)

This package provides artisan commands to import and export language files from and to CSV. This can be used to send translations to agencies that normally work with Excel-like files. In practice, CSV format is supper easy to work with for any translator in Fiverr or for any other freelancer. Personally, I have tried every other format such as php, yaml, docx, pod, txt and all of them has too complex syntax and requires custom software to work with (Not to mention all those problems with file encodings). CSV solves it all! (Now supports xls, xlsx, ods file types too!)

How It Works?

It turns some navigation.php file...

<?php

return array (
  'commands' =>
  array (
    'next' => 'Next',
    'prev' => 'Previous',
    'play' => 'Play',
  ),
  'tips' =>
  array (
    'next' => 'Navigate to the next item',
    'prev' => 'Navigate to the previous item',
    'play' => 'Autoplay the slide show',
  ),
);

...to the following CSV...

navigation.commands.next,Next
navigation.commands.prev,Previous
navigation.commands.play,Play
navigation.tips.next,"Navigate to the next item"
navigation.tips.prev,"Navigate to the previous item"
navigation.tips.play,"Autoplay the slide show"

...and vice versa.

Installation

    composer require aidask/laravel-lang-import-export

This package uses Laravel 5.5 Package Auto-Discovery. For previous versions of Laravel, you need to update config/app.php by adding an entry for the service provider:

    'providers' => array(
        /* ... */
        'LangImportExport\LangImportExportServiceProvider'
    )

Usage

The package currently provides two commands, one for exporting the files and one for importing them back:

Export

php artisan lang:export --locale en
php artisan lang:export --locale en --target fr,de,pt  # export en translations only missing in fr,de,pt locales. Each in separate files
php artisan lang:export -l fr,de,pt -z all.zip  # archive all the files
php artisan lang:export --locale en -g pagination,validation  # export only cretain groups 
php artisan lang:export --locale en --exclude pagination,validation  # export all files except pagination and validation
php artisan lang:export --locale en --ext xls  # supported extensions: Xls, Xlsx, Ods, Csv, Html, Tcpdf, Mpdf, Dompdf

Import

php artisan lang:import es.csv # localed autodetected from file name
php artisan lang:import espaniol.csv -l es
php artisan lang:import espaniol.csv -l es -g pagination,validation # import only cretain groups
php artisan lang:import es.csv -p --html # validate imported translations for missing placeholders and bad html (see below)
php artisan lang:import es.xls -p --column-map A,B,D # import translations from different column. E.g. C column was left with base language

Validate

php artisan lang:validate ar -m --html -v # find missing keys, bad html and placeholders

Config

You can export package config if you want to set defaults for the commands:
