There aren't examples on how to use Google Translate API Cliente library for java.
In this page Google suggest to search examples for their APIs but there is not a single one for Google Translate API: https://github.com/google/google-api-java-client-samples
Since I didn't found any example for Google Translate API I don't have any clue about how to use their official java library.
I want to make a simple request to translate a text (for example Hello World from english to spanish) with the Official library made by Google: https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/java/apis/translate/v2 but there is no documentation or examples available for the public.
Does anyone have info about how to use Google Translate API client library in java, I already googled and I had no luck at all.
I already have included all the jars to my project, but I don't know which classes I must use or which objects instantiate to make a translation from one language to another. I have no clue at all. I just need a simple snipped of code like in the examples repositories for other Google APIs.
Here's a working example.
You need to have your own App-Key generated for your app (start here) as translate API is no longer publicly available.
For options what to pass into Translate.Builder() see here.
import java.util.Arrays;
import com.google.api.services.translate.Translate;
import com.google.api.services.translate.model.TranslationsListResponse;
import com.google.api.services.translate.model.TranslationsResource;
public class TranslateMe {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
// See comments on
// https://developers.google.com/resources/api-libraries/documentation/translate/v2/java/latest/
// on options to set
Translate t = new Translate.Builder(
com.google.api.client.googleapis.javanet.GoogleNetHttpTransport.newTrustedTransport()
, com.google.api.client.json.gson.GsonFactory.getDefaultInstance(), null)
//Need to update this to your App-Name
.setApplicationName("Stackoverflow-Example")
.build();
Translate.Translations.List list = t.new Translations().list(
Arrays.asList(
//Pass in list of strings to be translated
"Hello World",
"How to use Google Translate from Java"),
//Target language
"ES");
//Set your API-Key from https://console.developers.google.com/
list.setKey("you-need-your-own-api-key");
TranslationsListResponse response = list.execute();
for(TranslationsResource tr : response.getTranslations()) {
System.out.println(tr.getTranslatedText());
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
