TransModifier

The |trans modifier translates string values using a TranslatorInterface implementation.

Behavior

• String values with |trans pipe are passed through the translator
• Non-string values delegate to the next modifier
• Missing translations return the original key unchanged

Usage

By default, uses a BypassTranslator that returns the original input:

use Respect\StringFormatter\PlaceholderFormatter;

$formatter = new PlaceholderFormatter(['message' => 'hello']);

echo $formatter->format('{{message|trans}}');
// Output: hello

With Symfony Translator

Install symfony/translation and inject a real translator:

use Respect\StringFormatter\PlaceholderFormatter;
use Respect\StringFormatter\Modifiers\TransModifier;
use Respect\StringFormatter\Modifiers\StringPassthroughModifier;
use Symfony\Component\Translation\Translator;
use Symfony\Component\Translation\Loader\ArrayLoader;

$translator = new Translator('en');
$translator->addLoader('array', new ArrayLoader());
$translator->addResource('array', ['greeting' => 'Hello World'], 'en');

$formatter = new PlaceholderFormatter(
    ['key' => 'greeting'],
    new TransModifier(new StringifyModifier(), $translator),
);

echo $formatter->format('{{key|trans}}');
// Output: Hello World

Examples
