CPhpMessageSource uses PHP files and arrays to keep message translations.
- All translations are saved under the basePath directory.
- Translations in one language are kept as PHP files under an individual subdirectory whose name is the same as the language ID. Each PHP file contains messages belonging to the same category, and the file name is the same as the category name.
- Within a PHP file, an array of (source, translation) pairs is returned. For example:
return array( 'original message 1' => 'translated message 1', 'original message 2' => 'translated message 2', );
Messages for an extension class (e.g. a widget, a module) can be specially managed and used. In particular, if a message belongs to an extension whose class name is Xyz, then the message category can be specified in the format of 'Xyz.categoryName'. And the corresponding message file is assumed to be 'BasePath/messages/LanguageID/categoryName.php', where 'BasePath' refers to the directory that contains the extension class file. When using Yii::t() to translate an extension message, the category name should be set as 'Xyz.categoryName'.

Property Details
basePath property
public string $basePath;
the base path for all translated messages. Defaults to null, meaning the "messages" subdirectory of the application directory (e.g. "protected/messages").
cacheID property
public string $cacheID;
the ID of the cache application component that is used to cache the messages. Defaults to 'cache' which refers to the primary cache application component. Set this property to false if you want to disable caching the messages.
cachingDuration property
public integer $cachingDuration;
the time in seconds that the messages can remain valid in cache. Defaults to 0, meaning the caching is disabled.
extensionPaths property (available since v1.1.13)
public array $extensionPaths;
the message paths for extensions that do not have a base class to use as category prefix. The format of the array should be:
array( 'ExtensionName' => 'ext.ExtensionName.messages', )Where the key is the name of the extension and the value is the alias to the path of the "messages" subdirectory of the extension. When using Yii::t() to translate an extension message, the category name should be set as 'ExtensionName.categoryName'. Defaults to an empty array, meaning no extensions registered.
Method Details
getMessageFile() method
protected string getMessageFile(string $category, string $language) | ||
$category | string | category name |
$language | string | language ID |
{return} | string | the message file path |
protected function getMessageFile($category,$language)
{
if(!isset($this->_files[$category][$language]))
{
if(($pos=strpos($category,'.'))!==false)
{
$extensionClass=substr($category,0,$pos);
$extensionCategory=substr($category,$pos+1);
// First check if there's an extension registered for this class.
if(isset($this->extensionPaths[$extensionClass]))
$this->_files[$category][$language]=Yii::getPathOfAlias($this->extensionPaths[$extensionClass]).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$language.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$extensionCategory.'.php';
else
{
// No extension registered, need to find it.
$class=new ReflectionClass($extensionClass);
$this->_files[$category][$language]=dirname($class->getFileName()).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'messages'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$language.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$extensionCategory.'.php';
}
}
else
$this->_files[$category][$language]=$this->basePath.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$language.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$category.'.php';
}
return $this->_files[$category][$language];
}
Determines the message file name based on the given category and language. If the category name contains a dot, it will be split into the module class name and the category name. In this case, the message file will be assumed to be located within the 'messages' subdirectory of the directory containing the module class file. Otherwise, the message file is assumed to be under the basePath.
init() method
public void init() |
public function init()
{
parent::init();
if($this->basePath===null)
$this->basePath=Yii::getPathOfAlias('application.messages');
}
Initializes the application component. This method overrides the parent implementation by preprocessing the user request data.
loadMessages() method
protected array loadMessages(string $category, string $language) | ||
$category | string | the message category |
$language | string | the target language |
{return} | array | the loaded messages |
protected function loadMessages($category,$language)
{
$messageFile=$this->getMessageFile($category,$language);
if($this->cachingDuration>0 && $this->cacheID!==false && ($cache=Yii::app()->getComponent($this->cacheID))!==null)
{
$key=self::CACHE_KEY_PREFIX . $messageFile;
if(($data=$cache->get($key))!==false)
return unserialize($data);
}
if(is_file($messageFile))
{
$messages=include($messageFile);
if(!is_array($messages))
$messages=array();
if(isset($cache))
{
$dependency=new CFileCacheDependency($messageFile);
$cache->set($key,serialize($messages),$this->cachingDuration,$dependency);
}
return $messages;
}
else
return array();
}
Loads the message translation for the specified language and category.
