Passing language=<valid_language_code> as a parameter in any Koha's URL
can be used to set the desired language.
This patch touches
- C4::Templates
- C4::Auth
Adds a new method getlanguagecookie that does exactly that, for use in
get_template_and_user.
Also modifies getlanguage so it checks (a) if there's a 'language'
parameter in the CGI object and (b) checks if its valid and enabled for
the desired interface.
To test:
* Without the patch
- access any koha page
- add ?language=code to the end of the URL (change code for a valid language code
it needs to be installed using perl translate install code, and enabled either for
the staff or opac interface, depending where are you testing)
- Nothing happens with the language parameter
* With the patch
- access any koha page
- add ?language=code (the same as before) and hit enter
- the language should be changed to the one you chose
- if you browse through some links, you will see
koha 'remembers' the language you passed as a parameter
(i.e. the language cookie has been updated).
