Hello all,
I know this is an old post, but I needed a solution for my automatic
language detection, so I made a little (probably terrible) change to the
function. Could you please tell me if there is something better, or if
there are errors?
Now it seems to work for me:
public function getPreferredLanguage(array $locales = null)
{
$preferredLanguages = $this->getLanguages();
// this is not correct because id locales is empty it returns
(i.e.) "en_US", not "en" and for browser is a problem
if (empty($locales)) {
return isset($preferredLanguages[0]) ? $preferredLanguages[0] :
null;
}
if (!$preferredLanguages) {
return $locales[0];
}
$preferredLanguagesIntersect =
array_values(array_intersect($preferredLanguages, $locales));
$preferredLanguage = reset($preferredLanguagesIntersect); // get
the first value resetting the pointer
// seen that a browser could return an array with only (i.e.)
"en_US" element, without "en"
// we try to find the first two_character of the browser array
element inside the locales array
if (empty($preferredLanguagesIntersect)) {
$firstLangChr = function($lang) {
return substr($lang,0,2);
};
$preferredLanguagesIntersect =
array_values(array_intersect(array_map($firstLangChr,$preferredLanguages),
$locales));
$preferredLanguage = reset($preferredLanguagesIntersect);
}
return isset($preferredLanguage) ? $preferredLanguage : $locales[0];
}
Thank you very much, hope it could be a better solution
