Multi Platform Translate Tool in Python

https://pypi.org/project/multi-translate/

https://github.com/Lyndon1994/multi-translate

Translate is a simple but powerful translation tool written in python with support for multiple translation providers. By now we offer integration with Baidu, Bing, Deepl, Google, MyMemory, Tencent, Youdao translation APIs.

It is forked from translate, and it is compatible with this pack.

Why Should I Use This?

The biggest reason to use translate is to make translations in wox and alfred quickly, and I would like to see the translation results of various platforms and choose the best one. I want to share with you, and it supports concurrent request for multiple platform translation results.

Installation

$ pip install multi-translate

Or, you can download the source and

$ python setup.py install

Prefix ‘sudo’ if you encounter a problem.

Features

• Translate text in real time and support concurrent request for multiple platform translation results
• Do translation in your terminal using the command line
• Default Youdao Translator, and it has built-in Youdao Translator APP_KEY (I applied for it myself, please don’t overuse it, thank you), so you can use Youdao Translator directly.

Usage

Use As A Python Module

In [1]: from translate import Translator
In [2]: translator = Translator(to_lang="zh")
In [3]: translation = translator.translate("This is a pen.")
Out [3]: 这是一支笔

The result is usually a unicode string.

Use a different translation provider

In [1]: from translate import Translator
In [2]: to_lang = 'zh'
In [3]: secret = '<your secret from Microsoft or DeepL>'
In [4]: translator = Translator(provider='<the name of the provider, eg. bing or deepl>', to_lang=to_lang, secret_key=secret)
In [5]: translator.translate('the book is on the table')
Out [5]: '碗是在桌子上。'

Use multi translation provider

from translate import Translator
baidu = {
    'appid': 'xxx',
    'secret_key': 'xxx'
}
tencent = {
    'secret_id': 'xxx',
    'secret_key': 'xxx'
}
bing = {
    'location': 'eastus',
    'secret_key': 'xxx'
}
youdao = {
    'app_key': 'xxx',
    'app_secret': 'xxx'
}
translator = Translator(to_lang='zh', provider='baidu,tencent,youdao,bing',
                        baidu=baidu, tencent=tencent, bing=bing, youdao=youdao)
translation = translator.translate('hello world', return_str=False)
print(translation)
# output: {'youdao': '你好世界', 'tencent': '你好世界', 'bing': '世界您好', 'baidu': '你好，世界'}

The DeepL Provider

To use DeepL’s pro API, pass an additional parameter named pro to the Translator object and set it to True and use your pro authentication key as the secret_key

In: translator = Translator(provider='microsoft', to_lang=to_lang, secret_key=secret, pro=True)

Use As A Command Line

In your command-line:

$ translate-cli -t zh "This is a pen."
Translation: 这是一支钢笔。
-------------------------
Translated by: youdao

Or

$ translate-cli -t zh "This is a pen." -o
这是一支钢笔。

Change Default Languages

In ~/.python-translate.cfg:

[DEFAULT]
from_lang = autodetect
to_lang = de
provider = youdao
secret_key =

The cfg is not for use as a Python module. or run the command line and follow the steps:

$ translate-cli --generate-config-file
Translate from [autodetect]:
Translate to: <language you want to translate>
Provider [youdao]:
Secret Access Key []:
