# TranslatorText

[![Gem](https://img.shields.io/gem/v/translator-text.svg)](https://rubygems.org/gems/translator-text/) [![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/PerfectMemory/translator-text.png)](https://codeclimate.com/github/PerfectMemory/translator-text)

API Wrapper for the [Microsoft Translator Text API 3.0](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/translator/reference/v3-0-reference) (Cognitive Services).

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'translator-text'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install translator-text

## Cognitive Services API Key

* To be able to use the Cognitive Services, you must have an API key and for that you need an Azure account.
* If you don't have an Azure account, you can create one for free on [this page](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/free/).
* Once logged on your [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com/), subscribe to the Translator Text API in Microsoft Cognitive Service.
* You will find two subscription keys available in 'RESOURCE MANAGEMENT > Keys' ('KEY 1' and 'KEY 2').

## Usage

### Client

You can instanciate your own client by passing the [Azure authentication](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/translator/reference/v3-0-reference#authentication) parameters.

```ruby
require 'translator-text'

client = TranslatorText::Client.new(api_key, api_region)
```

Or use the built-in that uses the following environment variables:

* `COGNITIVE_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY`: The value is the Azure secret key for your subscription to Translator.
* `COGNITIVE_SUBSCRIPTION_REGION`: The value is the region of the multi-service or regional translator resource. This value is optional when using a global translator resource.

```ruby
require 'translator-text'

client = TranslatorText.client
```

### Translation

```ruby
require 'translator-text'

results = TranslatorText.client.translate(
['something to translate', 'another something to translate'],
to: [:fr, :es]
)

# Returns
# [
# #"en", "score"=>1.0} translations=[
# #,
# #]>,
# #"en", "score"=>1.0} translations=[
# #,
# #]>
# ]
```

### Detection

```ruby
require 'translator-text'

results = TranslatorText.client.detect(['some unknown language', 'quelque chose à détecter'])

# Returns
# [
# #,
# #]>,
# #,
# #]>
# ]
```
