# Normit [](https://travis-ci.org/pawurb/normit) [](http://badge.fury.io/js/normit) [](https://coveralls.io/r/pawurb/normit?branch=master)
Normit is an easy way to translate stuff in your terminal. You can check out its Ruby gem version [termit](https://github.com/pawurb/termit).
## Installation
```bash
npm install normit -g
```
## Usage
```bash
normit 'source_language' 'target_language' 'text'
```
Example:
```bash
normit en es "hey cowboy where is your horse?"
=> "Hey vaquero dónde está tu caballo?"
normit fr en "qui est votre papa?"
=> "Who's Your Daddy?"
```
Parenthesis are not necessary for text data input:
```bash
normit fr ru qui est votre papa
=> "Кто твой папочка?"
```
#### Speech synthesis
Specify a **-t** (talk) flag to use speech synthesis (requires mpg123):
``` bash
normit en fr "hey cowboy where is your horse?" -t
=> "Hey cowboy où est votre cheval ?" # and a french voice says something about a horse
```
You can use normit as a speech synthesizer of any supported language without having to translate anything:
``` bash
normit en en "hold your horses cowboy !" -t
=> "hold your horses cowboy !" # and an english voice asks you to hold on
```
#### Learning language when committing to git (zsh only)
Idea by [Nedomas](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7545747) . See and hear your messages translated to target lang every time you commit:
In **~/.zshrc**
```bash
export LANG=es
git(){[[ "$@" = commit\ -m* ]]&&normit en $LANG ${${@:$#}//./} -t;command git $@}
```
I am no shell ninja so if you know how to make it work in bash then please submit a PR.
## Language codes:
To find all available language codes visit https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh456380.aspx
## Requirements
Works with node 0.10.0 and higher.
To use speech synthesis you need to have mpg123 installed.
For Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install mpg123
For MacOSX:
brew install mpg123
For Windows: [Download Site](https://www.mpg123.de/download.shtml) or [Direct Download mpg123-1.24.0-x86-64.zip](https://www.mpg123.de/download/win64/1.24.0/mpg123-1.24.0-x86-64.zip)
