This is a laravel wrapper for the Symfony PoTranslator. It comes with two global helper functions `__()` and `_n()`.
## Installation
**composer.json** `"astrotomic/laravel-translation": "dev-master"`
**config/app.php**
```
return [
...
'providers' => [
Astrotomic\Laravel\Translation\TranslatorServiceProvider::class,
],
...
'aliases' => [
'Trans' => Astrotomic\Laravel\Translation\Facades\TranslatorFacade::class,
],
...
];
```
**console**
```
composer update
artisan vendor:publish
```
## Usage
To generate the po files you first have to compile all your views, PoEdit can't handle blade, to do this use the artisan command `artisan view:compile`. After this you can generate the po files and the proper header with `artisan trans:po`. To collect and translate all the strings use PoEdit.
