libjf-translate-v0

libjf-translate-v0 provides a utility class for translating strings through Google Translate.

To use this, first obtain a TranslateService instance. You can use TranslateService.getConfigured() to do so. Please be aware that due to the nature of java generics, a workaround as seen in the example may be needed for successful compilation. You can also directly access implementations, however, this is not recommended. The TranslateService interface exposes all relevant functionality.

Example:

public void onInitialize() {
    try {
        runTest(TranslateService.getConfigured());
    } catch (Throwable e) {
        LibJf.LOGGER.error("Could not verify translation validity", e);
    }
}

private <T> void runTest(TranslateService<T> ts) throws TranslateException {
    final String source = "Cogito, ergo sum";
    final String expected = "I think, therefore I am";
    assert expected.equals(ts.translate(source, ts.detect(source), ts.parseLang("en")));
    assert expected.equals(ts.translate(source, ts.parseLang("la"), ts.parseLang("en")));
}
