lita-google-translate

lita-google-translate is a handler for Lita that performs translation and live interpretation with Google Translate.

Add lita-google-translate to your Lita instance's Gemfile:

gem "lita-google-translate"

In order to use this plugin, you must obtain a Google Translate API key.

Lita.configure do |config|
  config.handlers.google_translate.api_key = "YOUR API KEY GOES HERE"
end

• default_language (String) - The code corresponding to the desired target language for translation and interpretation when none is explicitly given. Default: en

Lita.configure do |config|
  config.handlers.google_translate.default_language = "ja"
end

Using the translate (or t) command will translate a given phrase. Source and/or target languages may be optionally specified using the syntax translate(FROM:TO)

<me>   lita: translate hola
<lita> Hello
<me>   lita: t(es) hello
<lita> Hola
<me>   lita: translate(zh-cn:fr) 你好
<lita> Bonjour
<me>   lita: translate(zh-cn:) 你好
<lita> Hello
<me>   lita: translate(:es) hello
<lita> Hola

Using the interpret command will interpret your messages on the fly until you type !interpret. Again, source and/or target languages may be optionally specified using the syntax interpret(FROM:TO)

<me>   lita: interpret(fr)
<me>   i don't want to talk to you anymore, you empty-headed animal food trough wiper
<lita> je ne veux plus parler de vous, vous animaux tête vide mangeoire glace
<me>   i fart in your general direction!
<lita> Je pète dans votre direction générale!
<me>   your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries
<lita> votre mère était un hamster et votre père avait une odeur de baies de sureau
<me>   !interpret

lita-google-translate's live interpretation feature was inspired by and adapted from lita-translation.
