Class yii\mongodb\i18n\MongoDbMessageSource

MongoDbMessageSource extends yii\i18n\MessageSource and represents a message source that stores translated messages in MongoDB collection.

This message source uses single collection for the message translations storage, defined via $collection. Each entry in this collection should have 3 fields:

• language: string, translation language
• category: string, name translation category
• messages: array, list of actual message translations, in each element: the 'message' key is raw message name and 'translation' key - message translation.

For example:

{
    "category": "app",
    "language": "de",
    "messages": {
        {
            "message": "Hello world!",
            "translation": "Hallo Welt!"
        },
        {
            "message": "The dog runs fast.",
            "translation": "Der Hund rennt schnell.",
        },
        ...
    },
}

You also can specify 'messages' using source message as a direct BSON key, while its value holds the translation. For example:

{
    "category": "app",
    "language": "de",
    "messages": {
        "Hello world!": "Hallo Welt!",
        "See more": "Mehr sehen",
        ...
    },
}

However such approach is not recommended as BSON keys can not contain symbols like . or $.
