# translate

Transate text from `stdin` to the current locale using `ollama` and `mixtral:instruct`.

`mixtral:instruct` (around 26 GiB) will be downloaded the first time the utility is being run.

Requires `ollama` to be set up and serving on port `11434`.

The translation takes a cuple of seconds up to several minutes, and is not terribly exact. But, it is a pretty versatile tool.

`ollama` and `translate` does not require an internet connection once `mixtral:instruct` has been downloaded.

## Quick installation

For installing the latest version of `translate` into `~/go/bin`:

    go install github.com/xyproto/translate@latest

Add `~/go/bin` to the `PATH` if needed:

    export PATH="$HOME/go/bin:$PATH"

## Example use

`LANG` is set to `nb_NO.UTF-8`

```

$ echo 'I can speak Norwegian!' | translate

Jeg kan snakke norsk!

```

Translate "hello" to the current locale if no text is given on `stdin`:

```

$ translate

hei

```

`LANG` is explicitly set to `de_DE`:

```

$ echo 'I can speak German!' | LANG=de_DE translate

Ich kann Deutsch sprechen!

```

`LANG` is explicitly set to `de_DE` and verbose output is enabled with `-v`:

```

$ echo 'I can speak German!' | LANG=de_DE translate -v

Prompt: Translate the following text to the locale de_DE (and only output the translated text): I can speak German!

Sending request to /api/tags

Sending request to /api/generate: {"model":"mixtral:instruct","prompt":"Translate the following text to the locale de_DE (and only output the translated text): I can speak German!"}

Ich kann Deutsch sprechen!

```
