API

To translate some texts

var req = await fetch(`http://127.0.0.1:14341/translate`, {
	method : "POST",
	body : JSON.stringify({t: [`こんにちは`, `よろしくお願いします。`]}),
	headers : {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
})
await req.json();

Result:

[
  "Hello. Hello.",
  "I look forward to working with you."
]

To batch translate JSON

Maybe you need to translate mega or gigabytes of text. Maybe translating it part by part via the HTTP protocol is not a good idea as there will be a lot of process overhead. In this case you can collect all the text that needs to be translated into one file, and YOJET will translate it for you.

Example

Create a job file with the following format:

{"text":["こんにちは", "こんばんは。"], "note":"you can translate an array of texts"}
{"text":"お疲れ様でした", "info":"or you can translate a single of text"}
{"text":"ご苦労さん", "Please note that":"Each line is one JSON object."}
{"text":"毎日私はご飯を食べます", "otherParameter": {"info":"YOJET will translate line by line so no matter how big the file you have it won't have a big impact on your computer's RAM."}}
{"text":"何は同年もっともそうした入会屋というのの上が上るたです", "otherparam":"3"}

Note that:

• One line represents one JSON object.
• This file does not consist of one JSON object, but many JSON objects separated by new lines.
• By default YOJET will translate properties named text .
• You can include any property on the JSON subset, but please note that the result of the translation will be put into the translated property. Any existing value will be overwritten by the translation result.

Send the request with f parameter referring to the path of the job file:

var req = await fetch(`http://127.0.0.1:14341/batch`, {
	method : "POST",
	body : JSON.stringify({f: "D:/test/batch/job.txt"}),
	headers : {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
})
await req.json();

The result file will be on the same path with the job file with .translated extension. The content of the result file from this example:

{"text":["こんにちは", "こんばんは。"], "translated": ["Hello.", "Good evening."], "note":"you can translate an array of texts"}
{"text":"お疲れ様でした", "translated": "Thanks for your hard work.", "info":"or you can translate a single of text"}
{"text":"ご苦労さん", "translated": "Thanks for your hard work.", "Please note that":"Each line is one JSON object."}
{"text":"毎日私はご飯を食べます", "translated": "I eat every day.", "otherParameter": {"info":"YOJET will translate line by line so no matter how big the file you have it won't have a big impact on your computer's RAM."}}
{"text":"何は同年もっともそうした入会屋というのの上が上るたです", "translated": "What's more, in the same year, that's one of the best admissions places in the world.", "otherparam":"3"}

Note that The unicode and non ASCII character may be escaped in the result file. (Example, Store Unicode string ø as \u00f8 in JSON)
