gem 'mongoid-localizer', github: 'simi/mongoid-localizer'

Mongoid::Localizer.locale # => I18n.locale for default

Mongoid::Localizer.locale = :en
dictionary = Dictionary.create(name: "Otto", description: "English")
Mongoid::Localizer.locale = :de
dictionary.description = "Deutsch"
dictionary.save

Mongoid::Localizer.locale = :en
dictionary.description # => "English"
Mongoid::Localizer.locale = :de
dictionary.description # => "Deutsch"

Mongoid::Localizer.with_locale(:en) do

end

dictionary.description # => "Deutsch"

Preventing I18n.fallbacks

  include Mongoid::Document
  field :name, type: String
  field :description, type: String, localize: true
  field :slug, type: String, localize: {prevent_fallback: true}
end

Mongoid::Localizer.locale = :en
dictionary = Dictionary.create(name: "Otto", description: "English", slug: "english")

Mongoid::Localizer.locale = :de
dictionary.description => "English"
dictionary.slug => nil
