How to setup "translations" in a virtual page?

bvdputte · February 11, 2019, 3:45pm

I have built a route for data coming from an API to display it as a virtual page. So far so good with Page::factory for adding slug, template, contents, … .

But now I’ld like to know how I have to setup the translations from it. As far as I see, it should be a Collection. Is there any tips on how I have to set this up so my language-switch-navigation works?

Thx!

    $this->assertEquals($page, $translation->parent());
    $this->assertEquals('de', $translation->code());
}


public function testContentAndSlug()
{
    $page = new Page([
        'slug' => 'test'
    ]);


    $translation = new ContentTranslation([
        'parent'  => $page,
        'code'    => 'de',
        'slug'    => 'test',
        'content' => $content = [
            'title' => 'test'
        ]
    ]);


    $this->assertEquals('test', $translation->slug());
    $this->assertEquals($content, $translation->content());

like this?

I can’t get this to work. Isn’t ContentTranslation meant for dealing with the file where the translated content lives?

I am somehow unable to hook the translated content to the virtual page to make the language switch nav (via $page->url($language->code()) in a loop over the available languages - in the template) to work.

Edit:

Each item in $page->translation() looks like this:

object(Kirby\Cms\ContentTranslation)[375]
  public 'code' => string 'fr' (length=2)
  public 'content' => 
    array (size=0)
      empty
  public 'exists' => boolean false
  public 'slug' => null
