A simple command line application to translate with DeepL API.

This application only supports DeepL API Free, and does not currently support other APIs.

## Installing

```bash

go install github.com/kinpoko/dt@latest

```

## Usage

1. Obtain an authentication key for the DeepL API. For information on how to obtain an authentication key, please see the [official documentation](https://www.deepl.com/ja/docs-api/).

2. Set the authentication key as an environment variable named `DEEPL_TOKEN`.

`.bashrc`

```bash

export DEEPL_TOKEN=

```

3. Translate text using the following command:

```bash

dt Hello World

ハロー・ワールド

```

Use the `-h` flag to view the help menu and command line options:

```bash

dt -h

A simple command line application to translate with deepl API.

Usage:

  dt [text] [flags]

Flags:

  -h, --help            help for dt

  -s, --source string   source language   (default "en")

  -t, --target string   target language   (default "ja")

```

## Using Pipe

You can use `dt` with other command line utilities by piping text to the application. For example, to translate the contents of a file named text.txt, you can use the following command:

```bash

cat text.txt | xargs dt

```

This will translate the text in the `text.txt` file and output the resulting translation to the command line.
