Thread: Embedded parameter in Zend_Translate

I have been using an easier way that seems to work for me and avoids having to use printf everywhere. I made my own TMX translate adapter that extends Zend_Translate_Adapter_Tmx and I overrode the _() function. Here is the class:

Code:

class My_Translate_Adapter_Tmx extends Zend_Translate_Adapter_Tmx
{
	public function _($messageId) {
		$translation = $this->translate($messageId, $this->getLocale());
		if(func_num_args() > 1) {
			$args = func_get_args();
			$args[0] = $translation;
			$translation = call_user_func_array('sprintf', $args);
		}
		return $translation;
	}
}

Set it in my bootstrap like this:

Code:

$translator = new Zend_Translate('My_Translate_Adapter_Tmx',
							APPLICATION_PATH . '/views/languages/' . $languageStr . '.tmx',
							$languageStr, $options);

This allows you to use _() with OR without parameters. For instance, in my TMX file I have these two entries:

Code:

<tu tuid="message_permission_denied">
	<tuv xml:lang="en_US"><seg>You do not have permission to access this resource.</seg></tuv>
</tu>

<tu tuid="details_permission_denied">
	<tuv xml:lang="en_US"><seg>The user "%1$s" does not have permission to access resource "%2$s".</seg></tuv>
</tu>

With those I can get the translations like so:

Code:

$translator->_('message_permission_denied')
$translator->_('details_permission_denied', $user->getUserName(), $reqActionStr)

Hope that helps, let me know if you have any questions.
