How to use localization in Blade tag templates?

Question

1st question:

I've inserted the localization in many types of texts and things, but I don't know how to import it into in the following forms:

  {{ Form::label('name', 'here') }}
  {{ Form::text('name', null, array('placeholder' => 'here')) }}
  {{ Form::submit('here', array('class' => 'btn btn-success')) }}
  {{ Form::button('here', array('class' => 'btn btn-default')) }}

I want it to be in the form label 'here' and in the placeholder of the text 'here'.

2nd question:

I am not allowed to insert it with links in my language file: text here blah blah <a href="{{ URL::to('text') }}">BLAH</a>?

Is there anyway to insert it with links?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Supposing that your messages are stored in app/lang/en/message.php you can use the same way for all your cases:

In Blade template:

{{ Form::label('name', Lang::get('message.key')) }}

{{ Form::text('name', null, array('placeholder' => Lang::get('message.key'))) }}

{{ Form::submit(Lang::get('message.key'), array('class' => 'btn btn-success')) }}

In HTML tag mixed with some Blade expression:

<a href="{{ URL::to(Lang::get('message.key')) }}">BLAH</a>

You can also use localization in Blade templates using strictly Blade syntax. Given that you have a message in your /app/lang/en/messages.php that corresponds to the key "message_key", you can do :

@lang('messages.message_key')

to render the message in the locale that your application is configured to use.
