Laravel Translations

laravel-translations scans your application source files for __() translation keys and creates JSON language files. It also includes a conversion command that can replace path-based keys with their resolved inline text.

Requirements

Package	PHP	Laravel
current	8.5.*	13.x

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require codebar-ag/laravel-translations

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-translations-config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    'pattern' => '/__\(\s*([\'"])(?<key>(?:\\\\.|(?!\1).)*)\1/',
    'directories' => [
        'app',
        'resources',
    ],
];

translations.directories controls where the scanner looks for translation keys. Use relative paths from your Laravel project root.

Commands

# Build lang/{locale}.json from __() usage
php artisan translations:fetch de

# Overwrite without confirmation
php artisan translations:fetch de --force

# Convert path-based keys to inline text in configured directories
php artisan translations:convert

# Preview conversion changes only
php artisan translations:convert --dry-run

Testing

composer test
