Class yii\i18n\MessageFormatter

Inheritanceyii\i18n\MessageFormatter » yii\base\Component » yii\base\BaseObject
Implementsyii\base\Configurable
Available since version2.0
Source Code https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/i18n/MessageFormatter.php

MessageFormatter allows formatting messages via ICU message format.

This class enhances the message formatter class provided by the PHP intl extension.

The following enhancements are provided:

  • It accepts named arguments and mixed numeric and named arguments.
  • Issues no error when an insufficient number of arguments have been provided. Instead, the placeholders will not be substituted.
  • Fixes PHP 5.5 weird placeholder replacement in case no arguments are provided at all (https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65920).
  • Offers limited support for message formatting in case PHP intl extension is not installed. However it is highly recommended that you install PHP intl extension if you want to use MessageFormatter features.

    The fallback implementation only supports the following message formats:

    • plural formatting for english ('one' and 'other' selectors)
    • select format
    • simple parameters
    • integer number parameters

    The fallback implementation does NOT support the 'apostrophe-friendly' syntax. Also messages that are working with the fallback implementation are not necessarily compatible with the PHP intl MessageFormatter so do not rely on the fallback if you are able to install intl extension somehow.

public string $errorMessage null

Method Details

fallbackFormat() protected method

Fallback implementation for MessageFormatter::formatMessage.

protected false|string fallbackFormat ( $pattern, $args, $locale )
$pattern string

The pattern string to insert things into.

$args array

The array of values to insert into the format string

$locale string

The locale to use for formatting locale-dependent parts

return false|string

The formatted pattern string or false if an error occurred

format() public method

Formats a message via ICU message format.

It uses the PHP intl extension's MessageFormatter and works around some issues. If PHP intl is not installed a fallback will be used that supports a subset of the ICU message format.

public string|false format ( $pattern, $params, $language )
$pattern string

The pattern string to insert parameters into.

$params array

The array of name value pairs to insert into the format string.

$language string

The locale to use for formatting locale-dependent parts

return string|false

The formatted pattern string or false if an error occurred

getErrorCode() public method

Get the error code from the last operation.

public string getErrorCode ( )
return string

Code of the last error.

getErrorMessage() public method

Get the error text from the last operation.

public string getErrorMessage ( )
return string

Description of the last error.

parse() public method

Parses an input string according to an ICU message format pattern.

It uses the PHP intl extension's MessageFormatter::parse() and adds support for named arguments. Usage of this method requires PHP intl extension to be installed.

public array|boolean parse ( $pattern, $message, $language )
$pattern string

The pattern to use for parsing the message.

$message string

The message to parse, conforming to the pattern.

$language string

The locale to use for formatting locale-dependent parts

return array|boolean

An array containing items extracted, or FALSE on error.

throws yii\base\NotSupportedException

when PHP intl extension is not installed.
