How to force link translation in laravel 4 mcamara

Question

How to get translated(to chosen language) url from named route? (or how to switch language and make Redirect::route(...) to localized link)

I use: php Laravel 4 (L4) mcamara/laravel-localization (LaravelLocalization)

Answer 1

It is simple :) just use

$lang = App:getLocale(); // two letters lang eg. 'en', 'pl'...
return Redirect::to( LaravelLocalization::getURLFromRouteNameTranslated($lang,
'routes.site.dashboard') );

Caution! We assume that routes english translations for key 'site.dashboard' are in file app/lang/en/routes.php

If you have route with parameters for instance: 'companies.edit' => 'companies/{company}/edit' in routes.php file then you can use:

$lang = App:getLocale(); // two letters lang eg. 'en', 'pl'...
Redirect::to(LaravelLocalization::getURLFromRouteNameTranslated($lang,
'routes.companies.edit', ['company' => $company->id]) );

That's all :)
