MTEngines

TypeScript library for Machine Translation (MT) using various engines. It provides a unified interface to interact with different MT and AI services, allowing you to translate text between multiple languages.

Interface MTEngine provides these methods:

    getName(): string;
    getShortName(): string;
    getSourceLanguages(): Promise<string[]>;
    getTargetLanguages(): Promise<string[]>;
    setSourceLanguage(lang: string): void;
    getSourceLanguage(): string;
    setTargetLanguage(lang: string): void;
    getTargetLanguage(): string;
    translate(source: string): Promise<string>;
    getMTMatch(source: string): Promise<MTMatch>;
    handlesTags(): boolean;
    fixesMatches(): boolean;
    fixMatch(originalSource: XMLElement, matchSource: XMLElement, matchTarget: XMLElement): Promise<MTMatch>;
    fixesTags(): boolean;
    fixTags(source: XMLElement, target: XMLElement): Promise<XMLElement>;

All supported engines implement the MTEngine interface. Methods fixMatch() and fixTags() are only implemented by AI-based engines (ChatGPTTranslator and AnthropicTranslator), all other engines throw an error when they are called.
