FAQ
After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.
Example:
Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories.
In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages.
Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository.

- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

History
This library is based on php-gettext. It adds some performance improvements and ability to install using Composer.
Motivation
Motivation for this library includes:
- The php-gettext library is not maintained anymore
- It doesn't work with recent PHP version (phpMyAdmin has patched version)
- It relies on
eval()function for plural equations what can have severe security implications, see CVE-2016-6175 - It's not possible to install it using Composer
- There was place for performance improvements in the library
Why not to use native gettext in PHP?
We've tried that, but it's not a viable solution:
- You can not use locales not known to system, what is something you can not control from web application. This gets even more tricky with minimalist virtualisation containers.
- Changing the MO file usually leads to PHP segmentation fault. It (or rather Gettext library) caches headers of MO file and if it's content is changed (for example new version is uploaded to server) it tries to access new data with old references. This is bug known for ages: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=45943
Why use Gettext and not JSON, YAML or whatever?
We want translators to be able to use their favorite tools and we want us to be able to use wide range of tools available with Gettext as well such as web based translation using Weblate. Using custom format usually adds another barrier for translators and we want to make it easy for them to contribute.
