Usage

Papago

Set up a client with your Papago Translation credentials.

// CJS
const { Papago } = require('papago-sdk')

// ESM
import { Papago } from 'papago-sdk'

const papago = new Papago({
  id: 'PAPAGO_CLIENT_ID',
  secret: 'PAPAGO_CLIENT_SECRET',
})

translate({ type: 'text' })

Translate the given text from one language to another.

const textTranslation = await papago.translate({
  from: 'en',
  to: 'ko',
  type: 'text',
  input: 'Hello, World!'
});

// Output:
{
  message: {
    result: {
      srcLangType: 'en',
      tarLangType: 'ko',
      translatedText: '안녕, 세상!'
    }
  }
}

textOnly: Boolean

Returns translated text only as translatedText.

const textOnly = await papago.translate({
  from: 'en',
  to: 'ko',
  type: 'text',
  text: 'Hello, World!',
  textOnly: true,
})

// Output:
{
  translatedText: '안녕, 세상!'
}

translate({ type: 'html' })

Translate an HTML string from one language to another as translatedHtml.

Note that the HTML structure will be preserved.

const htmlTranslation = await papago.translate({
  from: 'en',
  to: 'ko',
  type: 'html',
  input: '<div>Hello, world!</div>',
})

// Output:
{
  translatedHtml: '<div>안녕, 세상!</div>'
}

Good to know: For translate, when from is set to 'auto', the source language is detected automatically.

detect

Detect lang code of the given text.

const detection = await papago.detect({
  query: 'Hello World!',
})

// Output:
{
  langCode: 'en'
}
