[HTTP Error] Is there a maximum amout of translations?

[Marki396]

After some translations in a for loop i get an error [HTTP Error].
Is there a maximum amount of translations available for a specific amount of time?

const translate = require('@iamtraction/google-translate');

for (const keywordToTranslate of keyWordsList) { await translate(keywordToTranslate, { from: 'de', to: 'en' }).then(res => { keyWordsListEN.push(res.text); }).catch(err => { console.error(err); }); }

according to https://support.google.com/translate/thread/3870393?hl=en "The translate.googleapis.com site use is very limited. It only allows about 100 requests per one hour period and there after returns a 429 error (Too many requests). On the other hand, the Google Translate Api has a default billable limit of 5 requests/second/user and 200,000 requests/day."

The Google Translate API has a specific Google Group where many more people discuss that product since we don't get too many questions about the API so you may find https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/google-translate-api very interesting to read.

Google Translate API does come with their own support located at https://cloud.google.com/support-hub/ as well since Google Cloud Platform can cost money (the API is something that can incur costs).

Can you avoid to hit the limit by changing ip address?

[iamtraction]

yes, you can.

May I ask how to do it??

I already hit the limt and getting the following error.

SyntaxError: Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0
at JSON.parse (<anonymous>)
at node_modules/undici/lib/api/readable.js:237:20)

[iamtraction]

you've to use a proxy/vpn. or wait for the rate limit to expire.

[taishi55]

Yes I'm trying to integrate http-proxy-agent. I wonder if your module is cabpable for it

[iamtraction]

try it out and let me know. i have not tested it.

[taishi55]

I'm not so familiar with proxy...

I found this google translate library. So far I looped so many time, but I don't get any limiations. You want to check this out!!
