We should expose this to users through a formatphp compile command that works similarly to the formatjs compile command.\r\n\r\nThis will enable sharing the same translation files across front-end and back-end code.\r\n\r\n## Background/problem\r\n\u003c!--\r\nProvide background details to show why this feature is necessary. Is your\r\nfeature request related to a problem? If so, please describe the problem.\r\nProvide as much detail as possible.\r\n--\u003e\r\n\r\nFormatJS has a special compilation step that helps improve performance and efficiency internally, since it's a type of AST for translation strings. You can read more about the `compile` command here:\r\n\r\n- https://formatjs.io/docs/getting-started/message-distribution\r\n- https://formatjs.io/docs/tooling/cli#compilation\r\n\r\nFormatPHP already implements the same AST compilation process in order to validate messages. We need to expose this as a `compile` command to output the AST and save to a file. With this functionality, users could merge their translation files to usethe same ones for front-end and back-end.\r\n\r\n## Proposal/solution\r\n\u003c!--\r\nProvide a short and clear description of the solution you'd like. Include code\r\nexamples, if possible. Feel free to use pseudo-code to show how you think the\r\nfeature should work.\r\n--\u003e\r\n\r\nAdd a `compile` command to the FormatPHP CLI tool that mirrors the functionality of the FormatJS command of the same name: https://formatjs.io/docs/tooling/cli#compilation\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/ramsey","@type":"Person","name":"ramsey"},"datePublished":"2023-08-22T16:06:08.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/95/formatphp/issues/95"}
