Codeigniter gettext

This is Codeigniter PHP framework library for dealing with gettext.

Instructions

Please note that following steps assume that you have correctly installed gettext and configured Codeigniter on your server.

1. Place gettext.php inside application/config.
2. Place Gettext.php inside application/libraries.
3. Adjust application/config/gettext.php with your $config['gettext_catalog_codeset'], $config['gettext_text_domain'], $config['gettext_locale_dir'] and $config['gettext_locale'].
4. Create gettext locales directory according to your $config['gettext_locale_dir'] (application/language/locale by default). Inside that directory create locale_name/LC_MESSAGES path for each of your locales and place your .mo files inside.
5. Add 'gettext' to Auto-load Config files array or use $this->config->load('gettext') inside your controller.
6. Add 'gettext' to Auto-load Libraries array or use $this->load->library('gettext') inside your controller.

If you are loading this library inside your controller you can override any of the default configuration directives. For example if you want to override default $config['gettext_locale'] with hr_HR.UTF-8 you could use something like this:

<?php
class Example extends CI_Controller {
  public function __construct() {
       parent::__construct();

       $this->load->library(
           'gettext',
           array(
               'gettext_locale' => 'hr_HR.UTF-8'
           )
       );
  }
}
?>
