How translate error messages?

[AxelBriche]

I have this message:

"You have already requested a reset password email. Please check your email or try again soon"

How can I translate that please?
This error message is not inside a translation file.

Thanks.

You would have to translate that message yourself and add to your translation file(s). Then call $translator->trans($e->getReason()); before showing the message (as a flash or in a template).

@kbond is exactly correct! In your controller (I'm assuming you used MakerBundle to generate your setup), in a try/catch you are passed a ResetPasswordExceptionInterface exception. Each of these has a ->getReason() method. Translate this in your controller before displaying it. This text will not change in future versions of this bundle (if it did, it would be a backwards compatibility break).

This is probably something we should add to the docs.

There are PRs open in the Symfony Demo repository that demonstrate how this is done. I'm hoping to get some time to head over there and put the finishing touches on those PR's soon.

Hi there, would it be useful to add these strings to the translation files of the bundle?

[kbond]

@codedmonkey, is this what you mean?

Hey guys!

I suggested translating error messages in #206 that was already merged 🎉 - but we still need to merge related PR in Maker, see symfony/maker-bundle#1059 . Please, give it a try and review if you want! Also, feel free to help translating error messages to other languages, currently it's translated into en, ru and uk:

Btw, for now you can easily translate those messages yourself if needed, find a workaround here: #202 (comment)

I'm closing this - symfony/maker-bundle#1059 is merged and Maker v1.37.0 is released. Now this bundle only needs missing translations. If you already generated reset password code with Maker before - please, update it according to the new changes in Maker, see symfony/maker-bundle#1059 for the help
