Twig: Set default translation language

Question

there is situation like this:

example.twig.html

<P>{%trans%}Example Message 1{%endtrans%}</P>
<P>{%trans%}Example Message 2{%endtrans%}</P>
<P>{%trans%}Example Message 3{%endtrans%}</P>

This is not template to show by visitor via web browser, but to send on mail

randomTroll@randomDomain.randomCountry

by Swift_Message.

I want to force change default laguage to Trollish, but I do not want to use this:

{%trans into 'trollish' %}...{% endtrans %}

every time. It works perfectly, but it is ugly like a troll after washing in swamp.

In controller i tried something like this before render('example.twig.html'):

$request->setLocale('trollish');
$this->get('session')->set('_locale', 'trollish');

then

{{ app.request.locale }}

returns "trollish"

but used language in {% trans %}...{ %trans% } still is not trollish :(

How i can fix that?

Answer 1

In your controller, add:

$this->get('translator')->setLocale('trollish');
