Cross-platform TUI for translating text using multiple providers simultaneously and support automatic detection of the source and destination language
Terminal user interface based on the Blessed library for simultaneous text translation using multiple translation sources. All sources do not require an access token or any settings. Supports automatic detection of source and target languages between English and Russian at the code level.
⚠ Reverso does not support working via Axios (error:
Invalid header value char), Fetch is used instead.
Use the npm package manager:
npm install -g multranslate
Run the application:
multranslate
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Lifailon/multranslate
cd multranslate
Run the application:
npm start
To debug the interface:
npm run dev
The Blessed library is deprecated (no longer supported) and has a number of technical limitations, such as cursor navigation in a text input field. For this reason, a mechanism for managing input text via text buffer has been implemented, which allows using a custom cursor for navigation using keyboard arrows and automatic scrolling for swiping.
If you plan to use this library for similar tasks where text input is required, then add class TextBuffer and control of keypress shortcuts to your code via inputBox.on().
Enter - is used each time to translate the text simultaneously with moving to a new line.
Shift+<⬆/⬇> - simultaneous scrolling of all output panels.
Ctrl+<Q/W/E/R> - copying translation results from output forms to the clipboard (for each translator, the key combination is indicated in brackets), and the selected form will change its color to green.
Ctrl+V - paste text from the clipboard (defined at the code level).
Ctrl+C - clear the text input field.
Ctrl+<⬆/⬇> - scrolling the text input panel without navigation.
Ctrl+<⬅/➡> - quick cursor navigation through phrases.
Ctrl+DEL - delete the phrase before the cursor.
Ctrl+<A/D> - move the cursor to the beginning or end of text input.
Escape - exit the program.
