Automatically Add Missing Translations

When you are visiting a page the Symfony TranslationDataCollector will record what translations are being used. The translations marked as “Missing” will be added to the storage.

Configuration

# config/config.yaml
translation:
  # ..
  auto_add_missing_translations:
    enabled: true
    config_name: 'default'
  # ..

Usage

That’s it. You do not have to do anything more. Translations will automatically pop up in your storage.

Production environment

Note: The TranslationDataCollector is not used in production environment (this file is linked with the profiler). For use in production, you need to decorate the translator :

translator.data_collector:
    class: Symfony\Component\Translation\DataCollectorTranslator
    decorates: translator
    arguments: ['@translator.data_collector.inner']
