== Intro ==
This howto shows the implementation of a multilanguage ATK (meta)node. It provides the possibility to specify fields which should have language specific content. The language is based on the 2-character languagecode.

== Configuration ==
In the siteroot/config.inc.php you can specify the languages you want to support:
$config_supported_languages = array("NL","EN","DE");

And the default language:
$config_defaultlanguage="NL";

== Database ==
Create a database table as usual, but add a 'lang' column and add it to the PRIMARY KEY constraint, e.g.:

CREATE TABLE `news` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`title` varchar(100),
`body` text,
`is_published` tinyint(1) DEFAULT '0',
'''`lng` char(2) NOT NULL,'''
PRIMARY KEY (`id`,'''`lng`''')
);

== Node ==
We use the following flags to create a multilanguage node:
* NF_ML (alias: NF_MULTILANGUAGE) - to enable the auto-multilanguage feature for this node
* AF_ML (alias: AF_MULTILANGUAGE) - to indicate which attribute is used to store the languagecode

class News extends atkMetaNode
{
protected $flags = NF_ML;

static public function meta(atkMetaPolicy $policy)
{
$policy->setType("title", "atkMlAttribute");
$policy->setType("body", "atkMlTextAttribute");
$policy->setType("is_published", "atkBoolAttribute");

$policy->add('lang', 'atkAttribute', array(), AF_MULTILANGUAGE|AF_HIDE);
}
}

Your node now shows a 'title' field in your default language. With the language-dropdown, you can switch the language of the second 'title' field.

When you add a new record, one record per language will be added to your table (so 3 in this case). The id's will be exactly the same, so that's why you need the combined PRIMARY KEY.
