Raxan Framework Online Forum

Some cool features that i think would be important to Raxan:

Localization
Benchmarking
Unit Testing
Unicode conversion
Session Managament
File/Directory Handling
Database abstraction

if something of this is alredy in Raxan... forget

Hi Narven,

Thanks for the feedback. At least one feature already exists

1. Localization features already exists
2. Unit Testing - To come in version 1.0
3. Session Managament - Currently uses PHP built-in session. Database support to come in 1.0

The other features will be reviewed and added road map

Thanks for sharing

Hi,

when i say localization i dont mean for the code to tellme that im in portugal... or something like that.

When i say localization is about the hability to create a "dictionary" for translation. CodeIgniter has this feature.

u can create something like:

$lang['title']['This is the title']; and this will be saved in a file like header_lang.php in the english directory.

and in the portuguese directory in the file header_lang.php

$lang['title']['Isto é o titulo'];

in the file that we want we cant put something like this:

$this->lang = RichAPI::Language('language=en');

echo $this->lang['title'];

and would output This is the title

of course here we can use the localization to detect country and select the language

ps: sorry for my english

Raxan supports this kind of feature as well

Language files are stored in the "raxan/pdi/shared/locale" folder but you can easily change the location from inside your config file. See Loading A Custom Configuration File - http://raxanpdi.com/blog-load-config.html

Let's say you have a language (or dictionary) file called hompage.php with the following:

$locale['title'] = 'This is my web page';

You can then load your language file using:

RichAPI::loadLangFile('hompage.php');

Then use RichAPI::locale() to retrieve the text:

echo RichAPI::locale('title');

In addition to the above you can also use the langid element attribute:

<h2 langid="title">This text will be replaced</h2>

Then use the the localize() method to do the conversion:

P('body')->localize();

That's it. Here's another example: http://raxanpdi.com/multi-lang-example.html

Is this the feature that you're looking for?
