Fetching Translations

There are multiple ways to use locale translated attributes within your code.

Using application locale​

If you use app()->setLocale('dv'); then translatables will automatically detect this and give you the translated attribute if available.

app()->setLocale('dv');

// ...

// assuming you have added the translation
$post->title // Mee dhivehi title eh

Using language code suffixes​

If you need a specific locale, you can use the language code suffix to always get that locale.

$post->title_dv // Mee dhivehi title eh
$post->title_ar // null

By default, the language code suffix does not fallback to default locale. To change this behaviour, change the lang_suffix_should_fallback to true in the config file.
