Detect languages supported by user browser in PHP.
While requesting for data, browsers are sending Accept-Language header to server. It contains information about which language user can understand. We can use this value to serve content for users with their preferred language automatically.
Unfortunately, Accept-Language header is a bit complicated and needs parsing. That is the reason why you may need this package.
Use composer to install package in your project.
composer require dartui/browser-languageuse Dartui\BrowserLanguage\BrowserLanguage;
/**
* Constructor tries to get Accept-Language value from $_SERVER superglobal.
*/
$browserLanguage = new BrowserLanguage();
/**
* Additionally you can pass Accept-Language header value
* or hardcoded value by yourself.
*/
$browserLanguage = new BrowserLanguage('en-US,en;q=0.5,pl;q=0.3');
/**
* Get the list of all supported languages sorted by factor.
* Example: [en-US, en, pl]
*/
$allLanguages = $browserLanguage->all();
/**
* Get the best match for user browser language.
* Example: en-US
*/
$language = $browserLanguage->best();
