Locale

A powerful multi-format localization core library for .NET that supports scanning, diffing, validating, and transforming translation files.

Features

  • Multi-Format Support: JSON, YAML, RESX, PO/Gettext, XLIFF, SRT, VTT, CSV, i18next JSON, Fluent FTL, and VB resources
  • Scan Service: Compare localization files across cultures, detect missing/orphan keys and empty values
  • Diff Service: Compare two files with placeholder mismatch detection
  • Check Service: Validate against configurable rules (empty values, duplicates, orphans, placeholders, whitespace)
  • Convert Service: Transform between formats while preserving structure
  • Generate Service: Create skeleton target files from a base language
  • Watch Service: Monitor files for changes and auto-run scan/check
  • Translate Service: Auto-translate using external APIs (Google, DeepL, Bing, Yandex, LibreTranslate, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Azure OpenAI, Ollama)

Installation

dotnet add package Locale

Quick Start

using Locale.Services;
using Locale.Models;

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

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

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

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

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