Extending a class Locale.php

[seb-jean]

I need to extend your a class in your entities folder called Locale.php for add parameter config.

How do I go about doing that?

Thanks :)

I would like have

<?php

return [
    // ...

    'locales'   => [
        // A
        //====================================================>
        'aa'         => [
            'name'   => 'Afar',
            'script' => 'Latn',
            'dir'    => 'ltr',
            'native' => 'Qafar',
            'datepicker' => 'af'
        ],

        // ...

        'zu'         => [
            'name'   => 'Zulu',
            'script' => 'Latn',
            'dir'    => 'ltr',
            'native' => 'IsiZulu',
            'datepicker' => 'zu'
        ],
    ],
];

instead of

<?php

return [
    // ...

    'locales'   => [
        // A
        //====================================================>
        'aa'         => [
            'name'   => 'Afar',
            'script' => 'Latn',
            'dir'    => 'ltr',
            'native' => 'Qafar',
        ],

        // ...

        'zu'         => [
            'name'   => 'Zulu',
            'script' => 'Latn',
            'dir'    => 'ltr',
            'native' => 'IsiZulu',
        ],
    ],
];`

Hi @sebastienjean76, thanks for using this package.

When you say extending the Locale Entity class, you mean removing a parameter like regional or adding new one ??

Can you give me an example to see what you want to achieve ?

Hello :)

I would like add new parameter.

It's for add locale datepicker for my project and so it's different according the language.

[arcanedev-maroc]

OK, i see what you want to achieve.

The fast/optimal solution for this is by using a config file like this (Single responsibility principle thing):

<?php 
// config/datepicker.php

return [
    'aa' => 'af',
    'zu' => 'zu',
];

And access it like this config('datepicker.' . Localization::getLocale()).

I'm going to think about it and find an eloquent way to extend the Locale entity.

[seb-jean]

Ok thanks. I try this way ;).

[seb-jean]

It's config('datepicker.' . Localization::getCurrentLocale()) instead of config('datepicker.' . Localization::getLocale())
