cimpress-translations is a convenient client for Cimpress' Translations service.

Features:

• list and describe services; modify a service structure; get and put language blobs for a language
• pick language using ISO-639-2 ('eng', 'fra') or by passing the language's English name ('English', 'French')
• supply authorization statically (using a hard-coded string) or dynamically (with a custom method)
• convenience of a default service URL with the possibility of an override

client.listServices()

Lists all services for which you can access translations.

let services = await client.listServices();
console.log(services);
/**

 *

client.describeService(serviceId)

Returns details about a service.

let services = await client.describeService("28b1f0d2-9366-40cb-95bd-14de8c3adb9b");
console.log(service);
/**

 *   "serviceId": "28b1f0d2-9366-40cb-95bd-14de8c3adb9b"
 *   "name": "My Cimpress Service",
 *   "configuration": ...
 *

client.getLanguageBlob(serviceId, language)

Retrieves the translation for a service in a given language. The language may be specified using ISO-639-2 ('eng', 'fra') or selected using its English name ('English', 'French').

let services = await client.getLanguageBlob("28b1f0d2-9366-40cb-95bd-14de8c3adb9b", "French");
console.log(service);
/**
 * {
 *   "blobId": "8a27db52-3245-4466-be94-5e9f39283a3b",
 *   "data": ...
 *

client.putLanguageBlob(serviceId, language, blob)

Creates or updates the translation for a service in a given language. The language may be specified using ISO-639-2 ('eng', 'fra') or selected using its English name ('English', 'French').

let blob = {
  pages: {
    home: "Home page"
  }
};
await client.putLanguageBlob("28b1f0d2-9366-40cb-95bd-14de8c3adb9b", "English", blob);

client.patchStructure(serviceId, structurePatches)

Patches the translations structure of a service. The patch should be in JSON Patch format. The supported operations are add and remove.

let structurePatches = [
  {
    op: "add",
    path: "/pages",
    value: {
      contact: {
        name: "Contact page",
        description: "The title of the contact page",
        type: "singular"
      }
    }
  },
  {
    op: "remove",
    path: "/pages/home"
  }
];
await client.patchStructure("28b1f0d2-9366-40cb-95bd-14de8c3adb9b", structurePatches);

client.removeKeysFromStructure(serviceId, blob)

Removes keys from the translations structure of a service. The keys to remove are determined based on the difference between the blob passed as the parameter and its remote counterpart stored in Cimpress' Translations service. Any keys which are not present in the passed blob will be removed from the translations structure.

/**
 * Remote blob
 * {
 *   blobId: "eng",
 *   data: {
 *     pages: {
 *       home: "Home Page",
 *       contact: "Contact Page"
 *     }
 *   }
 * }
 */

let localBlob = {
  data: {
    blobId: "eng",
    pages: {
      home: "Home page"
    }  
  }
};
await client.removeKeysFromStructure("28b1f0d2-9366-40cb-95bd-14de8c3adb9b", localBlob);

/** generates and applies the following patch to the service structure :
 * [
 *   {
 *     op: "remove",
 *     path: "/pages/contact"
 *   }
 * ]
 */
