Lithium routes with different locales
I have an i18n route in Li3 that looks like this:
Router::connect('/{:locale:[a-z]{2}/{:args}', [], [
'continue' => true,
'persist' => ['locale'],
]);
This way, when a user (or crawler) enters my site with a language prefix, the locale is used to generate every link on the site.
For SEO purposes, I need to create URLs in other locales like:
GET /en/profile/john-doe
Canonical URL: https://www.example.com/en/profile/john-doe
Link hreflang for es: https://www.example.com/es/profile/john-doe
Link hreflang for pt: https://www.example.com/pt/profile/john-doe
My monetary approach clones the current request, changes the locale, removes locale
from the array, persist
and uses $request->to('url', ['absolute' => true]);
.
But I cannot get rid of the locale.
Any suggestions for fixing this?

Finally, I figured it was extending the class HTML
:
use lithium\template\helper\Html as BaseHtml;
class Html extends BaseHtml
{
/**
* Returns href lang link for a locale for the current request.
*
* @param string $locale
* @return string <link />
*/
public function getHrefLinkForLocale($locale)
{
return $this->link(
'Canonical URL for ' . $locale,
compact('locale') + $this->getRequest()->params,
[
'absolute' => true,
'rel' => 'alternate',
'type' => 'alternate',
'hreflang' => $locale,
]
);
}
}
