Check if my codeigniter 4 runs in multilingual mode. - sdiri - 05-05-2021

Hi, How do I know if CI4 is running in multilingual mode?
in other words how to know if segment 1 of url presents the key of the language not another variable?
because the methode

PHP Code:
$this->request->getLocale() 

always returns the a value ...
if no language key founded it return the default value of:

PHP Code:
$defaultLocale 

In this case, nothing guarantees me that the returned value corresponds to a key of a language, controller or if the site works in multilungue mode or not.
I think even if I use

PHP Code:
$this->request->getLocale() in_array( this-> request-> config-> supportedLocales)... 

that does not give a guarantee!

Please How to be sure of my mode?

Thank you all

The multi-language in CodeIgniter should only be used for internal errors and strings.
all major new web browsers now support multi-language and they should do the conversion.

You can change the <html lang="en". to a different language and the web browser should pick it up.

Thanks, but I am working on a back-end solution with 3 different languages.

Maybe, I didn't explain it to you well!

My problem is whether the current page uses the language key or if the key is just a variable.

How can I add a boolean variable when Codeigniter parses the fisrt key as a language key and that variable should be callable anywhere in my program.
For example: $ in_multilingual_mode = false;
When CodeIgniter interprets the first segment as a key the variable turns it would change to $ in_multilingual_mode = true;

I have a specific case for that.
Thank you

You may need to use the _remap method.

Remapping Method Calls

PHP Code:
public function _remap($method, $params = array())
  {
      $method = 'process'.ucwords($method);
      if (method_exists($this, $method))
      {
          return call_user_func_array(array($this, $method), $params);
      }
      show_404();
  }
