Laravel variable variable is not working

Question

I have two variables, which are same but localized. And i also have a $locale variable, which is holding locale appendix (_en etc..)

Now i want to combine them and create variable variable to print proper localized variable.

{{${'$v->fuel_type->vehicle_fuel_type'}.$locale}}

But i get error Undefined variable: $v->fuel_type->vehicle_fuel_type_en (View: /var/www/html/sixt/resources/views/offerselect-new.blade.php)

But there is $v->fuel_type->vehicle_fule_type variable. What's wrong with this?

What is the format of the variable that you're trying to generate? — aynber

Using the (hardly documented) laravel helper data_get would make things a lot easier for you:

{{ data_get($v, "fuel_type.vehicle_fuel_type".($locale?"_".$locale:"")) }}

This is similar to array_get but also works for objects.
