Multi-format localization library for .NET

NuGet Version NuGet Downloads License


Locale is a powerful .NET library for working with localization files. It supports 11 formats and provides services for scanning, diffing, validating, converting, generating, and auto-translating translation files.

✨ Features

  • 🔍 Scan - Compare localization files across cultures, detect missing/orphan keys
  • 📊 Diff - Side-by-side comparison with placeholder mismatch detection
  • Check - Validate against configurable rules
  • 🔄 Convert - Transform between 11 different formats
  • 📝 Generate - Create skeleton target files from a base language
  • 🌐 Translate - Auto-translate using 10 providers (including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini)

📦 Installation

dotnet add package Locale

🚀 Quick Start

using Locale.Services;
using Locale.Models;

// Scan for translation gaps
var scanService = new ScanService();
var report = scanService.Scan("./locales", new ScanOptions
{
    BaseCulture = "en",
    TargetCultures = ["tr", "de", "fr"]
});

Console.WriteLine($"Missing: {report.MissingKeys.Count}, Orphan: {report.OrphanKeys.Count}");

// Compare two files
var diffService = new DiffService();
var diff = diffService.Diff("en.json", "tr.json");

// Validate files
var checkService = new CheckService();
var check = checkService.Check("./locales", new CheckOptions
{
    Rules = ["no-empty-values", "consistent-placeholders"]
});

// Convert formats
var convertService = new ConvertService();
convertService.Convert("en.json", "en.yaml", new ConvertOptions { ToFormat = "yaml" });

// Generate skeleton files
var generateService = new GenerateService();
generateService.Generate("./locales", "./locales", new GenerateOptions
{
    BaseCulture = "en",
    TargetCulture = "tr"
});
