Data grid - Localization

The data grid allows to support users from different locales, with formatting, RTL, and localized strings.

The default locale of MUI is English (United States). If you want to use other locales, follow the instructions below.

Translation keys

You can use the localeText prop to pass in your own text and translations. You can find all the translation keys supported in the source in the GitHub repository. In the following example, the labels of the density selector are customized.

Locale text

The default locale of MUI is English (United States).

You can use the theme to configure the locale text:

import { createTheme, ThemeProvider } from '@mui/material/styles';
import { DataGrid, bgBG } from '@mui/x-data-grid';

const theme = createTheme(
  {
    palette: {
      primary: { main: '#1976d2' },
    },
  },
  bgBG,
);

<ThemeProvider theme={theme}>
  <DataGrid />
</ThemeProvider>;

Note that createTheme accepts any number of arguments. If you are already using the translations of the core components, you can add bgBG as a new argument. The same import works for DataGridPro as it's an extension of DataGrid.

import { createTheme, ThemeProvider } from '@mui/material/styles';
import { DataGrid, bgBG } from '@mui/x-data-grid';
import { bgBG as pickersBgBG } from '@mui/x-date-pickers';
import { bgBG as coreBgBG } from '@mui/material/locale';

const theme = createTheme(
  {
    palette: {
      primary: { main: '#1976d2' },
    },
  },
  bgBG, // x-data-grid translations
  pickersBgBG, // x-date-pickers translations
  coreBgBG, // core translations
);

<ThemeProvider theme={theme}>
  <DataGrid />
</ThemeProvider>;

If you want to pass language translations directly to the grid without using createTheme and ThemeProvider, you can directly load the language translations from the @mui/x-data-grid or @mui/x-data-grid-pro package.

import { DataGrid, nlNL } from '@mui/x-data-grid';

<DataGrid localeText={nlNL.components.MuiDataGrid.defaultProps.localeText} />;

You can find the source in the GitHub repository.

To create your own translation or to customize the English text, copy this file to your project, make any changes needed and import the locale from there. Note that these translations of the Data grid component depend on the Localization strategy of the whole library.
