If you have a website multilingual, this bundle avoids of copy paste your routes for different languages. Additionally it allows to translate given routing parameters between languages in Router#match and UrlGenerator#generate using either a Symfony Translator or a Doctrine DBAL (+Cache) based backend.
When you create an I18N route and you go on it with your browser, the locale will be updated.

If the static parts of your routes are translated you get to the point really fast when dynamic parts such as product slugs, category names or other dynamic routing parameters should be translated.
You can configure translation in your config.yml:
// app/config/config.yml
be_simple_i18n_routing:
connection: default # Doctrine DBAL connection name
cache: apc
#use_translations: true # If you want to use Symfony translator
After this you can now define a to be translated attribute in your route defaults:
product_view:
locales: { en: "/product/{slug}", de: "/produkt/{slug}" }
defaults: { _controller: "ShopBundle:Product:view", _translate: "slug" }
product_view2:
locales: { en: "/product/{category}/{slug}", de: "/produkt/{category}/{slug}" }
defaults:
_controller: "ShopBundle:Product:view"
_translate: ["slug", "category"]
The same goes with generating routes, now backwards:
{{ path("product_view", {"slug": product.slug, "translate": "slug"}) }}
{{ path("product_view2", {"slug": product.slug, "translate": ["slug", "category]}) }}
The reverse translation is only necessary if you have the "original" values in your templates. If you have access to the localized value of the current locale then you can just pass this and do not hint to translate it with the "translate" key.
The Doctrine Backend has the following table structure:
CREATE TABLE routing_translations (
id INT NOT NULL,
route VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
locale VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
attribute VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
localized_value VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
original_value VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
UNIQUE INDEX UNIQ_291BA3522C420794180C698FA7AEFFB (route, locale, attribute),
INDEX IDX_291BA352D951F3E4 (localized_value),
PRIMARY KEY(id)
) ENGINE = InnoDB;
Lookups are made through the combination of route name, locale and attribute of the route to be translated.
Every lookup is cached in a Doctrine\Common\Cache\Cache instance that you should configure to be APC, Memcache or Xcache for performance reasons.
If you are using Doctrine it automatically registers a listener for SchemaTool to create the routing_translations table for your database backend, you only have to call:
./app/console doctrine:schema:update --dump-sql
./app/console doctrine:schema:update --force
