INTRODUCTION

Texts is a module, that allows to manage and translate strings / texts using a key-based approach.
If you work in a decoupled environment, this module allows you to manage your frontend translations within Drupal with ease.
The module offers an improved UI to manage translations in the Drupal backend.

It supports pluralization (singular / plural) and placeholders, like the normal t() function.

The module comes with optional GraphQL support to fetch the translations in a decoupled environment.

Import / Export

The module has CSV import / export functionality. You can quickly export all strings and translate them in an external tool.

API

You can use the function getTexts(): (similar to t())

Example:

getTexts(
  'login.button', // The translation key
  ['@name => 'Luke Skywalker'], // (optional) placeholders
  ['default_translation' => 'Login Button @name', 'context' => 'default'] // (optional) options
)

This will create a translation based on the key login.button if it does not exist and return its translation.

You can use the function getTextsPlural(): (similar to formatPlural())

Example:

getTextsPlural(
   1, // count
  'login.button', // The translation key
  '1 year @name', // singular
  '@count years @name', // plural
  ['@name => 'Luke Skywalker'], // (optional) placeholders 
  ['default_translation' => 'Login Button @name', 'context' => 'default'] // (optional) options
)

This will create pluralized texts.

Twig support

You can use the following Twig filters:

  • |getTexts(key)
  • |getTextsPlural(key)

REQUIREMENTS

  • locale module
  • content_translation module.

INSTALLATION

No directly comparable modules exist in Drupal 8.
