In Laravel you can retrieve lines from language files using the trans() helper function.
To keep our code simple we would like the __() helper function instead.
Create a new file: 'app/Support/Helpers.php'.
<?php
if ( ! function_exists('__')) {
function __($string)
{
$r = trans('messages.' . $string);
return (substr($r, 0, 9) === 'messages.' ? $string : $r);
}
}
In order to load this file with autoloader we need to edit 'composer.json':
"autoload": {
"files": [
"app/Support/Helpers.php"
]
},
Finnaly we need to regenerate ( 'vender\composer\autoload_classmap.php') the list of all classes that need to be included:
composer dump-autoload
