I am using Google Translate API to translate docs and I am using their API and boy is it broken.
I am using this link to create a function that can translate a given input text,
For this code block I am getting the following error
# Imports the Google Cloud Translation library
from google.cloud import translate
# Initialize Translation client
def translate_text(
text: str = "YOUR_TEXT_TO_TRANSLATE", project_id: str = "YOUR_PROJECT_ID"
) -> translate.TranslationServiceClient:
"""Translating Text."""
client = translate.TranslationServiceClient()
location = "global"
parent = f"projects/{project_id}/locations/{location}"
# Translate text from English to French
# Detail on supported types can be found here:
# https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/supported-formats
response = client.translate_text(
request={
"parent": parent,
"contents": [text],
"mime_type": "text/plain", # mime types: text/plain, text/html
"source_language_code": "en-US",
"target_language_code": "fr",
}
)
# Display the translation for each input text provided
for translation in response.translations:
print(f"Translated text: {translation.translated_text}")
return response
I am getting this error and I am not sure what is going on
TypeError: TranslationServiceClient.translate_text() got an unexpected keyword
argument 'request'
Terrible docs, you can just follow the definition of translate_text()
to see how it's supposed to work now (assuming there used to be a param request
), but this still sucks. https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/advanced/translate-text-advance
request = {
"parent": parent,
"contents": [text],
"mime_type": "text/plain", # mime types: text/plain, text/html
"source_language_code": "en-US",
"target_language_code": "fr",
}
response = client.translate_text(**request)
