Example

You can use textra() to translate texts with textra easily.

Store your credentials in the user .Renviron file, which usethis::edit_r_environ() opens, and restart R. Keeping them out of your scripts keeps them out of version control.

TEXTRA_API_KEY=your_api_key
TEXTRA_API_SECRET=your_api_secret
TEXTRA_NAME=your_login_id

library(textrar)

params <- gen_params()

text <- "Hello world"
translated <- textra(text, params, model = "transLM", from = "en", to = "it")
translated
 ## [1] "Ciao mondo"

You can also pass the credentials explicitly, for example when you keep them somewhere else.

key <- "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvw01234567890abcdef1" # API key
secret <- "xyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvw012345"       # API secret
name <- "login_ID"                                 # login_ID
params <- gen_params(key = key, secret = secret, name = name)
