===== Usage ===== In this section, demos on how to use all different integrated translators in this tool are provided. This includes the google, pons, linguee and mymemory translator (at least for now). Perhaps more translators will be integrated in the future. .. note:: You can always pass the languages by the name or by abbreviation. *Example*: If you want to use english as a source or target language, you can pass **english** or **en** as an argument Imports -------- .. code-block:: python from deep_translator import (GoogleTranslator, PonsTranslator, LingueeTranslator, MyMemoryTranslator, single_detection, batch_detection) Check Supported Languages --------------------------- .. note:: You can check the supported languages of each translator by calling the get_supported_languages function as a static method. .. code-block:: python # default return type is a list langs_list = GoogleTranslator.get_supported_languages() # output: [arabic, french, english etc...] # alternatively, you can the dictionary containing languages mapped to their abbreviation langs_dict = GoogleTranslator.get_supported_languages(as_dict=True) # output: {arabic: ar, french: fr, english:en etc...} Language Detection ------------------ .. note:: You can also detect language automatically. Notice that this package is free and my goal is to keep it free. Therefore, you will need to get your own api_key if you want to use the language detection function. I figured out you can get one for free here: https://detectlanguage.com/documentation - Single Text Detection .. code-block:: python lang = single_detection('bonjour la vie', api_key='your_api_key') print(lang) # output: fr - Batch Detection .. code-block:: python lang = batch_detection(['bonjour la vie', 'hello world'], api_key='your_api_key') print(lang) # output: [fr, en] Google Translate ----------------- .. code-block:: python text = 'happy coding' - You can use automatic language detection to detect the source language: .. code-block:: python translated = GoogleTranslator(source='auto', target='de').translate(text=text) - You can pass languages by name: .. code-block:: python translated = GoogleTranslator(source='auto', target='german').translate(text=text) - Alternatively, you can pass languages by their abbreviation: .. code-block:: python translated = GoogleTranslator(source='en', target='de').translate(text=text) - Translate from a file: .. code-block:: python translated = GoogleTranslator(source='auto', target='german').translate_file('path/to/file') - Automate translation by detecting the source language and translate it automatically to the desired language .. code-block:: python # this is useful if you have many sentences in different languages and want to automate the translation process translated = GoogleTranslator(source='auto', target='de').translate_sentences([your_list_of_sentences]) Mymemory Translator -------------------- .. note:: As in google translate, you can use the automatic language detection with mymemory by using "auto" as an argument for the source language. However, this feature in the mymemory translator is not so powerful as in google translate. - Simple translation .. code-block:: python text = 'Keep it up. You are awesome' translated = MyMemoryTranslator(source='auto', target='french').translate(text) - Translate a list of sentences or paragraphs .. code-block:: python texts = ["hallo welt", "guten morgen"] translated = MyMemoryTranslator('de', 'english').translate_sentences(texts) - Translate from file .. code-block:: python path = "your_file.txt" translated = MyMemoryTranslator(source='en', target='fr').translate_file(path) Linguee Translator ------------------- .. code-block:: python word = 'good' - Simple Translation .. code-block:: python translated_word = LingueeTranslator(source='english', target='french').translate(word) # pass language by their abbreviation translated_word = LingueeTranslator(source='en', target='fr').translate(word) - Return all synonyms or words that matches .. code-block:: python # set the argument return_all to True if you want to get all synonyms of the word to translate translated_word = LingueeTranslator(source='english', target='french').translate(word, return_all=True) - Translate a batch of words .. code-block:: python translated_words = LingueeTranslator(source='english', target='french').translate_words(["good", "awesome"]) PONS Translator ---------------- .. note:: You can pass the languages by the name or by abbreviation just like previous examples using GoogleTranslate .. code-block:: python word = 'awesome' - Simple Translation .. code-block:: python translated_word = PonsTranslator(source='english', target='french').translate(word) # pass language by their abbreviation translated_word = PonsTranslator(source='en', target='fr').translate(word) - Return all synonyms or words that matches .. code-block:: python # set the argument return_all to True if you want to get all synonyms of the word to translate translated_word = PonsTranslator(source='english', target='french').translate(word, return_all=True) - Translate a batch of words .. code-block:: python translated_words = LingueeTranslator(source='english', target='french').translate_words(["good", "awesome"]) Usage from Terminal -------------------- For a quick access, you can use the deep_translator from terminal. For this to work, you need to provide the right arguments, which are the translator you want to use, source language, target language and the text you want to translate. For example, provide "google" as an argument to use the google translator. Alternatively you can use the other supported translators. Just read the documentation to have an overview about the supported translators in this library. .. code-block:: console $ deep_translator --translator "google" --source "english" --target "german" --text "happy coding" Or you can go for the short version: .. code-block:: console $ deep_translator -trans "google" -src "english" -tg "german" -txt "happy coding" If you want, you can also pass the source and target language by their abbreviation .. code-block:: console $ deep_translator -trans "google" -src "en" -tg "de" -txt "happy coding"
