$L = Lang::init([
  'current' =>      $_GET['lang'],
  'available' =>    ['az', 'en'],

  'cookieExpire' => time()+86400*24*7
]);

Usage

Single Key

Example JSON: { "keyName": "Hi there!" }

<?php
echo $L->key('keyName');  // Hi there!

<?php
echo $L->key('keyName@inside');   // This is the value inside keyName
