Locales¶

Locale Context¶

With the default configuration, customers are able to change the store language in the frontend.

To manage the currently used language, we use LocaleContext. You can always access it through sylius.context.locale id.

<?php

public function fooAction()
{
    $locale = $this->get('sylius.context.locale')->getLocale();

    echo $locale; // pl_PL
}

To change the locale, you can simply use the setLocale() method of the context service.

<?php

public function fooAction()
{
    $this->get('sylius.context.locale')->setLocale('de_DE'); // Store will be displayed in German.
}

The locale context can be injected into your custom service and give you access to currently used locale.

Available Locales Provider¶

Service sylius.locale_provider is responsible for returning all languages available to the current user. By default, it filters out all disabled locales. You can easily modify this logic by overriding this component.

<?php

public function fooAction()
{
    $locales = $this->get('sylius.locale_provider')->getAvailableLocales();

    foreach ($locales as $locale) {
        echo $locale->getCode();
    }
}

To get all languages configured in the store, including the disabled ones, you can simply use the repository.

<?php

$locales = $this->get('sylius.repository.locale')->findAll();
