a Laravel package that simplifies the translation of enums in your applications, making it easy to associate enum values with translated labels for multiple languages. It enhances code readability and maintainability by handling enum translations seamlessly.

This makes it super easy to provide your front-end with a list of enum-keys with corresponding labels.

• Automatically load translated labels for your application Enums
• Provide a fallback based on the enum key to easily find missing translations
• Follows the configured locale of your application

1. Use composer to install the package composer require ifresh/laravel-enum-translations
2. Publish the configuration files ./artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-enum-translations
3. Modify the lang/en/enums.php file OR copy this file to your application's locale folder.

Given the following enum:

namespace App\Enums;

enum Cards: string
{
    case Hearts = 'hearts';
    case Diamonds = 'diamonds';
    case Clubs = 'clubs';
    case Spades = 'spades';
}

You can add translated values by modifying the lang/en/enums.php file:

return [
    'cards' => [
        'hearts' => 'Hearts ❤️',
        'diamonds' => 'Diamonds 💎',
        'clubs' => 'Clubs ♣️',
        'spades' => 'Spades ♠️',
    ],
];

Now to use these translations in your application by using the EnumTranslatorFacade:

If you simply want to get the list of all the translations for a single Enum (for instance when filling a dropdown) you can use the translate method available on the Facade:

use App\Enums\Cards;
use IFresh\EnumTranslations\EnumTranslatorFacade as EnumTranslator;

$translations = EnumTranslator::translate(Cards::class);
/*
 * [
 *   'hearts' => 'Hearts ❤️',
 *   'diamonds' => 'Diamonds 💎',
 *   'clubs' => 'Clubs ♣️',
 *   'spades' => 'Spades ♠️',
 * ]
 */

It is also possible to get the translated value for a single enum value, to do this you can use the translateValue method instead:

EnumTranslator::translateValue(Cards::class, Cards::Hearts); // 'Hearts ❤️'

When you pass null as the selected enum value, an empty string is returned:

EnumTranslator::translateValue(Cards::class, null); // ''
