export ref that holds current language

[Fuzzyma]

Following the spirit of vue, it feels strange to call "getActiveLanguage" to get the current locale.
Can you please add an export with a ref that holds the active language as well?
That would also enable us to write links that change when the locale gets changed.
Atm, I dont see any way of doing that especially there is no way to detect if a locale has changed.

Usage:

<script>
import { currentLocale } from 'laravel-vue-i18n';
</script>

<template>
  <Link :href="route('localized.home', { locale: currentLocale })">Home</Link>
</template>

Wow, this is exactly what im trying to solve.

• for this Issue

[Fuzzyma]

Lol did you have the same issue at the same time and found this 10minutes after its creation? :D
Your link seems broken tho

I will describe actually what im trying to solve:
vue.js + ssr
have made a LanguageSwitcher.vue component
ok working for 2 languages, but trying to understand how to change url based on locales.

in my case Italian + English

Default: (ITA)
Second Lang: (EN)

But ofc url is not changing. I dont know maybe you archived this?
Im pretty new in whole ecosystem (lara+vue) but its seems really similar to what Vitepress has archived.

in my mind im trying to handle "translated content" as md files, and UI translation with this package.

What do you think?
Im pretty disperate at this point xD

I ended up routing to the localized route (/en/ or /de/) with a normal link. So it's a full reload of the page to the English or German version

Just for your information

2morow morning I will try this one.

Since we are forced to use Standart routes why don't give it a chance?

It's sad because this package was working well. But lacks this Standart behavior. Thanks mate

Nah, im stick with laravel-vue-i18n at this moment. But i think we need author's help in order to get laravel locales to work with his package. Please @xiCO2k can you provide some instructions?

If we get some example it would be highly appreciated.

[xiCO2k]

Looks like its something that I can consider adding, can you add a PR with that addition?

Thanks.

[Fuzzyma]

If you give me some pointers where the current locale gets set and where it gets read I can create a pr

@Fuzzyma can you please share some example regarding locales?

[SecretChakra]

Ok i think i have solved. Now on locale change, your plugin changes translation.
Oh yeah.. 1 week after i managed to properly make it work.
Great stuff.

@SecretChakra this issue is about solving the issue at hand. Please refrain of sharing your personal journey. Most of your posts are not meaningful to solving the issue at hand (and every time a notification is send to the author). I am an OSS maintainer myself and this kind of conversation puts stress on the maintainer which results in even less engagement.

Happy that you figured it out tho. Lets get back to topic.
