Laravel Blade String Extract

We often start a small project and eventually it grows bigger. And before handover clients want a last tiny-miny changes like language support. 😐

You have used proper format when using strings {{ __('Your String In Blade File') }} but now you have to browse 100 of files and extract list them to create language files. Well... It happened to me and tried to minimize the effort a little bit and though to share this with others.

When to use

  • You have a project with lots of blade files.
  • You have used ___() underscores function for printing strings.
  • Now you need to add translation support and you are lazy to browse all files and collect the strings.

How to use

  1. Clone the repo
  2. Install the dependencies
  3. Copy all view files and folder/s from your laravel project to php folder
  4. run python extract.py
  5. You will get all your strings to strings.blade.php

Cons:

You should use underscores function properly in laravel {{ __('Your String In Blade File') }} otherwise it can not extract the strings
