Geaux.Localization

Tenant-aware, culture-aware, database-backed localization for .NET 8+ and .NET 9 applications.

Geaux.Localization provides a complete end-to-end localization system for multi-tenant and multi-culture applications. It integrates with Entity Framework Core and ASP.NET Core to deliver database-backed translations that respect the current tenant and culture for every request.

Features

  • Database-backed IStringLocalizer implementation with tenant and culture scoping
  • [Localized] attribute for annotating model properties that require translation keys
  • EF Core SaveChanges interceptor that automatically upserts translations for annotated properties
  • Seeder utility to create default translations across assemblies
  • DI extension for registering context, localizer, and supporting services from configuration
  • Support for SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, and Sqlite providers

Installation

Add the package reference to your project:

dotnet add package Geaux.Localization

Enable XML documentation so DocFX and IntelliSense can consume the inline XML comments:

<PropertyGroup>
  <GenerateDocumentationFile>true</GenerateDocumentationFile>
</PropertyGroup>

Configuration

Add a Localization section to your appsettings.json:

{
  "ConnectionStrings": {
    "LocalizationDb": "Server=localhost;Database=GeauxLocalization;Trusted_Connection=True;"
  },
  "Localization": {
    "DefaultCulture": "en-US",
    "SupportedCultures": [ "en-US", "fr-FR" ],
    "EnableCultureFallback": true,
    "ConnectionStringName": "LocalizationDb",
    "Provider": "SqlServer",
    "MigrationsAssembly": "Geaux.Migrations"
  }
}

Usage

Register the localization services in Program.cs:

using Geaux.Localization.Extensions;

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.Services.AddGeauxLocalization(builder.Configuration);

Annotate model properties that need translations:

using Geaux.Localization.Attributes;

public class Product
{
    public string TenantId { get; set; } = "default";

    [Localized(
        key: "Product.Name",
        errorMessageKey: "Product.Name.Required",
        displayNameKey: "Product.Name.Label",
        displayMessageKey: "Product.Name.Description")]
    public string Name { get; set; } = string.Empty;
}

Translations are stored in the Translations table as rows identified by tenant, culture, and key. The LocalizationSaveChangesInterceptor keeps entries in sync during EF Core save operations.

Provider mapping

Provider value EF Core call Example
SqlServer UseSqlServer "Provider": "SqlServer"
PostgreSql UseNpgsql "Provider": "PostgreSql"
MySql/MariaDb UseMySql "Provider": "MySql"
Sqlite UseSqlite "Provider": "Sqlite"
LocalDb UseSqlServer "Provider": "LocalDb"
