Language Middleware, based on 'language_id' integer
Currently trying to check on a 'language_id' integer for my authenticated users/partners and then set the correct language parameters for their session?
Language.php middleware
class Language
{
protected $default = 'en';
protected $languages = [
'en',
'de',
];
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
if($request->has('lang')) {
$lang = $request->lang;
if(array_search($lang, $this->languages) === false) {
$lang = $this->default;
}
// How can I check on the authenticated user (User.php or Partner.php, both with 'language_id' on their table, referring to Language.php)
if(auth()->guard('partner')){
if (auth()->user()->language_id == 1) {
$request->session()->put('lang', 'en');
} elseif (auth()->user()->language_id == 2) {
$request->session()->put('lang', 'de');
}
} else{
if (auth()->user()->language_id == 1) {
$request->session()->put('lang', 'en');
} elseif (auth()->user()->language_id == 2) {
$request->session()->put('lang', 'de');
}
}
$request->session()->put('lang', $request->lang);
}
\App::setLocale( $request->session()->get('lang') );
return $next($request);
}
}

How am i able to trigger the language, without creating a form with a button, around the select? (Footer Dropdown)
<select>
<option value="{{ route('lang', ['lang' => 'en']) }}"><button type="submit"><a href="{{ route('lang', ['lang' => 'en']) }}">English</a></button></option>
<option value="{{ route('lang', ['lang' => 'de']) }}">German</option></a>
</select>

You'd need a bit of javascript for that, listening for the select's onchange event to redirect the user. Something like this:
<select onchange="changeLanguage(this.value);">
{{-- options --}}
</select>
(...)
<script>
function changeLanguage(val) {
window.location = val;
}
</script>
