Description
According to https://symfony.com/doc/current/translation/message_format.html#numbers the translator uses the locale to select the currency:
# translations/messages+intl-icu.en.yaml
value_of_object: 'This artifact is worth {value, number, currency}'
// prints "This artifact is worth $9,988,776.65"
// if we would translate this to i.e. French, the value would be shown as
// "9 988 776,65 €"
echo $translator->trans('value_of_object', ['value' => 9988776.65]);
IMO, the currency does not depend on the locale: I may want to display euros in English and US dollars in French.
What is the expected way to display this sentence using the translator?
This artifact is worth €9,988,776.65
A possible workaround would be to define custom formats like with this JS lib:
