🌍 Language Detector and Translator

A lightweight and easy-to-use Node.js utility that automatically detects the language of a given text and translates it into your desired target language. Perfect for building multilingual apps, bots, or content processing tools.

📦 Installation

npm i detect-and-translate

🧾 Description

This package provides two main functions:

• detectLanguage(text): Automatically detects the language of a given text.
• translate({ text, source, target }): Translates the given text from a source language to a target language.
  • If source is not provided, it will be auto-detected.
  • If target is not provided, it defaults to English ("en").

🚀 Code Examples

🔍 A. Detect Language

const { detectLanguage } = require("detect-and-translate");

console.log(detectLanguage("Bonjour, comment ça va?"));
// Output: "fr" (French)

🌐 B. Translate Text (Auto-Detect Source, Default to English)

const { detectLanguage, translate } = require("detect-and-translate");

// Translate function accepts three parameters:
// - text: The text to be translated
// - source: The source language code (optional, auto-detected if not provided)
// - target: The target language code (default is "en")

async function runTranslation() {
  try {
    const result = await translate({
      text: "Bonjour tout le monde",
    });
    console.log("Translated Text:", result);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error during translation:", error.message);
  }
}

🇫🇷 C. Translate Text to a Specific Language

const { detectLanguage, translate } = require("detect-and-translate");

// Translate function accepts three parameters:
// - text: The text to be translated
// - source: The source language code (optional, auto-detected if not provided)
// - target: The target language code (default is "en")

async function runTranslation() {
  try {
    const result = await translate({
      text: "Hello, how are you?",
      target: "fr",
    });
    console.log("Translated Text:", result);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error during translation:", error.message);
  }
}
