Voyager: Multilingual support

[marktopper]

It would be really nice if Voyager had multilingual support.

This however would require a lot of modifications in the current system:

• [ ] Language Switcher on front-end
• [x] Language Switcher on admin panel
• [ ] Enable/Disable Language Switcher from the front-end/admin panel
• [x] The current views should use language translations
• [ ] We should be able to select which languages can be used
• [x] Menu builder should support multilingual, in that way that it should be possible to add other strings/urls for different menu items
• [x] The current page system should support multilingual, in that way that the fields can be translated
• [ ] Configuration for defining language routes, some people might want the routes to be the same like (example.com/about-me should be the same url for all languages, however it translate the language according to a language set for that user somehow) or prefixed with the language code like (example.com/en/about-me and example.com/XX/about-me).
• [x] Categories should support multilingual for fields
• [x] Posts should support multilingual for fields

I think we should wait for Laravel 5.4 because it will have better localization features:

[marktopper]

@setzer17: Looks awesome! Let's wait for Laravel 5.4.

Then we can focus on something else until that.

[akazorg]

I will be implementing some of this topics on a project I'm working at the moment, I can share with you later.
I'll be using JSON data type for the translated fields. Do you like this approach?

[marktopper]

@akaZorg, you mean for the Eloquent?

[akazorg]

Yes, something like the guys from Spatie created: https://github.com/spatie/laravel-translatable.
Do you consider on using dependencies like this one?

[marktopper]

I think that the codebase may lay on that dependency. However only for developers using the translation system. So I think it should make a translate: boolean to the Voyager config, which leaves every bit of track that a translation system exists from the UI, and nether require that dependency. So users that wish to use translations can enable translations and add the dependency easy using composer require spatie/laravel-translatable.

[marktopper]

However that might not be 100% possible just like that, since the package uses a trait that have to be implemented.

Any ideas?

[akazorg]

I have no ideas about that trait, need to dive into it... I've been busy with other stuff, will catch you later.

[vpakg]

Laravel 5.4 is officially released.

[Dpentest]

It is a good idea to support multilingual and im ready to contribute on that. I can translate to Arabic langauage when you are ready.

Im currently working on making the BREAD translatable #561

[mbdwey]

Hello @marktopper
Am using your package to generate admin panel for mobile API
and I will translate the admin panel to Arabic, Please share more information about contribution guidelines.
I will start merging i18n and feature/rtl-support and test or improve them.

[warlight]

Hi @marktopper
I can also translate it to Russian
@mbdwey how do you use Voyager admin for RTL? You also need menu in right, no?

[marktopper]

@warlight, wonderful, we already have the translation files for you to start on.

And we have the RTL branch with RTL support, however, there are still a few issues on it that we will have to resolve before it makes it into a release.

[marktopper]

@mbdwey Yes please test the RTL branch, I do not use RTL myself, so its hard for me to tell if everything is fine.

Also here you can see the English translation file: https://github.com/the-control-group/voyager/blob/master/publishable/lang/en/voyager.php

[warlight]

@marktopper I also can start translating to Hebrew. But I don't know it well) And I don't understand if everything is ok with RTL.

[marktopper]

@warlight I see 😄

[GeorgeGhiottone]

Is possible to use the translations also for the file? For example save a audio guide for different languages. Thank you.

[akazorg]

@asolagmbh great point!
Voyager doesn't support "file translation" and we should work on that. Please open an issue requesting this feature. Thanks.

This is easy to implemented.

[handiwijoyo]

Voyager 1.0 already support for multilangual

[gesticode]
