TL2

Overview

The default i18n features in Kohana are adequate for most applications, but I found I needed more control over how things were translated. This module contains an improved plural system and multiple cascading language support.

Language files are stored as JSON and can be cached in whole and in part by way of the cache module.

Installation

1. git submodule add git://github.com/MasterCJ/kohana-tl2.git modules/tl2
2. Enable 'tl2' in your bootstrap file
3. Set the location for your language files, configure the cache if necessary
4. Use the TL2::* functions in your project

Usage

$str = TL2::tr('example', array('var1' => 'one thing', 'var2' => 'another'));
$str -> "this is an example of 'one thing' and 'another'"

$str = TL2::tr('example', array('var1' => 'one thing', 'var2' => 'another'), 'ja_jp');
$str -> "これは'one thing'と'another'の例です"

$str = TL2::tn('time:measurement:second', -20);
$str -> "-20 seconds"

$str = TL2::tn('time:measurement:second', -1);
$str -> "-1 second"

$str = TL2::tn('time:measurement:second', 0, 'ja_jp,en_us');
$str -> "0秒"

$str = TL2::tn('time:measurement:second', 1, 'ja_jp,en_us');
$str -> "1秒"

$str = TL2::tn('time:measurement:second', 2, 'en_us,ja_jp');
$str -> "2 seconds"

$str = TL2::tn('time:measurement:second', 2, 'ja_jp,en_us');
$str -> "2秒"

u mad?

This is really a single-purpose module, so I won't be doing a whole lot of updates I don't think. If you find something broken though, let me know. You can reach me at github or [email protected].
