google-cloud-translate

Google Translate (docs) provides a simple, programmatic interface for translating an arbitrary string into any supported language. It is highly responsive, so websites and applications can integrate with Translate API for fast, dynamic translation of source text. Language detection is also available in cases where the source language is unknown.

Translate API supports more than ninety different languages, from Afrikaans to Zulu. Used in combination, this enables translation between thousands of language pairs. Also, you can send in HTML and receive HTML with translated text back. You don't need to extract your source text or reassemble the translated content.

Authentication

Like other Cloud Platform services, Google Translate API supports authentication using a project ID and OAuth 2.0 credentials. In addition, it supports authentication using a public API access key. (If both the API key and the project and OAuth 2.0 credentials are provided, the API key will be used.) Instructions and configuration options are covered in the Authentication Guide.

Example

require "google/cloud/translate"

translate = Google::Cloud::Translate.new

translation = translate.translate "Hello world!", to: "la"

translation.to #=> "la"
translation.text #=> "Salve mundi!"
