llm-translate

Overview

llm-translate is a Python library designed to identify the language of a given text and translate text between multiple languages using OpenAI's GPT-4o. The library is especially useful for translating text containing multiple languages into a single target language.

Features

• Language Detection: Identify the language of a given text in ISO 639-1 format.
• Translation: Translate text containing multiple languages into another language in ISO 639-1 format.

Requirements

To use this library, you must have an OpenAI API key. This key allows the library to utilize OpenAI's GPT-4o for translation and language detection.

Installation

You can install the llm-translate library from PyPI:

pip install llm-translate

Usage

Setting the OpenAI API Key

Before using llm-translate with OpenAI, you need to set your OpenAI API key. You can do this by creating an instance of the TranslatorOpenAI class.

from llm_translate.translator import TranslatorOpenAI

# Set your OpenAI API key
translator = TranslatorOpenAI(open_ai_api_key="YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY")

Setting the Azure OpenAI API Key

If you are using Azure's OpenAI services, you need to set your Azure OpenAI API key along with additional required parameters. Use the TranslatorAzureOpenAI class for this.

from llm_translate.translator import TranslatorAzureOpenAI

# Set your Azure OpenAI API key and related parameters
translator = TranslatorAzureOpenAI(
    azure_endpoint="YOUR_AZURE_ENDPOINT",
    api_key="YOUR_AZURE_API_KEY",
    api_version="YOUR_API_VERSION",
    azure_deployment="YOUR_AZURE_DEPLOYMENT"
)

Language Detection

To detect the language of a given text:

from llm_translate.translator import TranslatorOpenAI
# Set your OpenAI API key
translator = TranslatorOpenAI(open_ai_api_key="YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY")

# Detect language
detected_language = translator.get_text_language("Hello world")
if detected_language is not None:
  print(detected_language.ISO_639_1_code)  # Output: 'en'
  print(detected_language.ISO_639_2_code)  # Output: 'eng'
  print(detected_language.ISO_639_3_code)  # Output: 'eng'
  print(detected_language.language_name)   # Output: 'English'

[!IMPORTANT] If the translator does not detect any language, it will return None.
Before using results of translator detection you should check if it returned correct result or None

Translation

To translate text containing multiple languages into another language:

from llm_translate.translator import TranslatorOpenAI
# Set your OpenAI API key
translator = TranslatorOpenAI(open_ai_api_key="YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY")

# Translate text
translated_text = translator.translate("Cześć jak się masz? Meu nome é Adam", "en")
print(translated_text)  # Output: "Hello how are you? My name is Adam"

Full Example

Here is a complete example demonstrating how to use the library:

from llm_translate.translator import TranslatorOpenAI

# Initialize the translator with your OpenAI API key
translator = TranslatorOpenAI(open_ai_api_key="YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY")

# Detect language
detected_language = translator.get_text_language("jak ty się nazywasz")
if detected_language is not None:
  print(detected_language.ISO_639_1_code)  # Output: 'pl'
  print(detected_language.ISO_639_2_code)  # Output: 'pol'
  print(detected_language.ISO_639_3_code)  # Output: 'pol'
  print(detected_language.language_name) # Output 'Polish'

# Translate text
translated_text = translator.translate("Cześć jak się masz? Meu nome é Adam", "en")
print(translated_text)  # Output: "Hello how are you? My name is Adam"
