$t-variable in templates not working

[eLod]

hey @fancenl. the thing is with g11n helpers is that they are added to view rendering via config initializers, you can check here. the good news is that you should be able to add those helpers to mail rendering just the same (adding to li3_mailer\net\mail\Media).

Thanks @eLod for the quick response. Unfortunately, when I add the following code to the li3_mailer's media.php, I got an error:

# li3_mailer\net\mail\Media
Media::applyFilter('_handle', function($self, $params, $chain) {
    $params['handler'] += array('outputFilters' => array());
    $params['handler']['outputFilters'] += \lithium\g11n\Message::aliases(); // Added full namespace because Message is already in use by the library itself
    return $chain->next($self, $params, $chain);
});

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'InvalidArgumentException' with message 'Locale `` could not be parsed.' in /var/www/production/libraries/lithium/g11n/Locale.php:131

So, how can I take care of the fact that Lithium will use the current locale-configuration?

hey @fancenl. i think you need to set the locale as well if you are rendering emails outside of the request-response cycle, e.g. you see the initializer applying the locale setter here. also i think you don't need to use the the full path for Message because of the explicit import in that initializer file, where have you added your code? i would add it in that same initializer, and use li3_mailer\net\mail\Media as MailMedia;.

@eLod I've added the code just at the end of the file outside the class. If I do not use the full path for Message I got the error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method li3_mailer\net\mail\Message::aliases()

So I did use lithium\g11n\Message as MailMessage; and the top of the file and changed my code to:

MailMedia::applyFilter('_handle', function($self, $params, $chain) {
    $params['handler'] += array('outputFilters' => array());
    $params['handler']['outputFilters'] += MailMessage::aliases();
    return $chain->next($self, $params, $chain);
});

and below the code above:

$setLocale = function($self, $params, $chain) {
    if (!$params['request']->locale()) {
        $params['request']->locale(Locale::preferred($params['request']));
    }
    Environment::set(true, array('locale' => $params['request']->locale()));

    return $chain->next($self, $params, $chain);
};

MailMedia::applyFilter('_handle', $setLocale);

This gives a new error:
Notice: Undefined index: request in /var/www/production/libraries/li3_mailer/net/mail/Media.php on line 424
and
Fatal error: Call to a member function locale() on a non-object in /var/www/production/libraries/li3_mailer/net/mail/Media.php on line 424

So I think that lithium cannot find the right locale because there is no request-object.

(I'm sorry, I'm trying to understand MVC & Lithium and I'm not an expert yet ;-))

[eLod]

@fancenl strange, i dont think you should use MailMessage though, i would pass the class to the anonymous function via using. For the new error: yes, there is no $params['request'] just remove those lines and set whatever locale you want to.

A few months later; it is working by adding:

use lithium\g11n\Message;
use li3_mailer\net\mail\Media;

Media::applyFilter('_handle', function($self, $params, $chain) {
    $params['handler'] += array('outputFilters' => array());
    $params['handler']['outputFilters'] += Message::aliases();
    return $chain->next($self, $params, $chain);
});

Thank you!
