A simple PHP script to automatically translate data files into multiple languages using free DeepL or Google Translate APIs
Supports translating .yaml and .json files, as well as any plain text files.
Supports using either DeepL or Google Translate basic translation, although it prefers DeepL if available.
To get a free API key:
- Sign up for a free API key with DeepL
- Start a project on Google Cloud Platform and generate a basic "API Key"
This counts characters and should avoid exceeding the free limits, but this is not guaranteed and a bug could cause you to exceed Google's free limit.
It can be easily modified to use DeepL's paid plan.
Usage:
script.php <input-file|input-dir> <output-dir> <languages>
script.php -h
script.php [-r] -i <input-file|input-dir> -o <output-dir> -l <languages> [-t <output-file-type>]
script.php -k <language-key> [-r] -i <input-file|input-dir> [-o <output-file>] -l <languages>
