Laravel Folio - how to manage localized URLs

[danielschweiger]

I am playing arround with Laravel Folio. In my URLs I need the localization (language code) as the first part:

domain.com/de/users

or

domain.com/en/users

Please check my attachment, how can I solve it without having "users" in both, "de" and "en" folders?

domain.com/users is working great, but I need to have it here:

domain.com/en/users

I did the following (assuming you load the text from language files):

// Register DE static pages from content/pages
Folio::path(base_path('resources/views/pages'))
    ->uri('de')
    ->middleware([
        '*' => ['lang:de'],
    ]);

// Register EN static pages from content/pages
Folio::path(base_path('resources/views/pages'))
    ->uri('en')
    ->middleware([
        '*' => ['lang:en'],
    ]);

// Register Preferred Language Redirect
Route::get('{path}', RedirectToPreferredLanguage::class)
    ->where('path', '^(?!(en|de)).*');

The middleware lang:xx is the following:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Middleware;

use Closure;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\App;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Cookie;

class SetLanguage
{
    /**
     * Handle an incoming request.
     *
     * @param  \Closure(\Illuminate\Http\Request): (\Illuminate\Http\Response|\Illuminate\Http\RedirectResponse)  $next
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response|\Illuminate\Http\RedirectResponse
     */
    public function handle(Request $request, Closure $next, string $lang)
    {
        App::setLocale($lang);

        // Remember the last known locale for automatic redirects
        if ($request->cookie('last_known_locale', null) !== $lang) {
            Cookie::queue('last_known_locale', $lang, 60 * 24 * 365);
        }

        return $next($request);
    }
}

And the redirect to preferred language I simply use the last known locale from the cookie or get the preferred language from the http headers:

/**
    * Determine the language from the request
    */
public static function determinePreferredLanguage(Request $request): string
{
    $language = $request->cookie('last_known_locale', null);

    if (! in_array($language, ['de', 'en'])) {
        $language = null;
    }

    $language ??= $request->getPreferredLanguage(['en', 'de']);

    return $language ?? config('app.fallback_locale');
}
