trans
Embedded translations for Ecto schemas using PostgreSQL JSONB columns to avoid extra tables.
What is trans?
Trans is an Elixir library that provides embedded translations for Ecto schemas, eliminating the need for separate translation tables. It leverages PostgreSQL's JSONB datatype to store translations directly within the schema, reducing database complexity and improving query performance by avoiding extra JOINs.
Elixir developers using Ecto with PostgreSQL who need to internationalize content in their applications, particularly those seeking to simplify database schema and optimize query performance for translated data.
Developers choose Trans over traditional translation table approaches because it stores translations in a JSONB column within the same table, which reduces database complexity, simplifies migrations, and improves performance by minimizing JOINs. It integrates seamlessly with Ecto schemas, changesets, and migrations, offering a lightweight, modular design focused on simplicity.
