sogou translate for free

Project description

sogou-tr-free PyPI versionLicense: MITCode style: black

Sogou translate for free -- local cache, throttling (1.5 calls/s from 1001st call on). Let's hope it lasts.

Update

version 0.0.10: added update_snuid

Installation

pip install -U sogou-tr-free

or

  • Install (pip or whatever) necessary requirements, e.g. pip install requests requests_cache jmespath fuzzywuzzy or pip install -r requirements.txt
  • Drop the file sogou_tr.py in any folder in your PYTHONPATH (check with import sys; print(sys.path)
  • or clone the repo (e.g., git clone https://github.com/ffreemt/sogou-tr-free.git or download https://github.com/ffreemt/sogou-tr-free/archive/master.zip and unzip) and change to the sogou-tr-free folder and do a python setup.py develop

Usage

from sogou_tr import sogou_tr
print(sogou_tr('hello world'))  # -> '你好世界'
print(sogou_tr('hello world', to_lang='de'))  # -> 'Hallo Welt'
print(sogou_tr('hello world', to_lang='fr'))  # -> 'Salut tout le monde'
print(sogou_tr('hello world', to_lang='ja'))  # ->'ハローワールド'

Speedup

For each request made by sogou_tr, a vlaid SNUID is reqired. It takes time to acquire a SNUID, however. On the other hand, the SNUID can be used for a certain time period.

Hence, sogout_tr has a parameter to control whether to update SNUID or not. The parameter is, well, called update_snuid. By default, update_snuid=True. You can turn it off to speed things up:

text = "test 1232"
res = sogou_tr(text, update_snuid=False)

How do we know the SNUID is still valid? sogou_tr will throw an Exception("sogou server likely acting up") when the SNUID is no longer valid. Therefore, we might do something like this:

from time import sleep

text = "test 1232"
try:
    res = sogou_tr(text, update_snuid=False)
except Exception as exc:
    if "server likely acting up" in str(exc):
        sleep(3)
        res = sogou_tr(text, update_snuid=True)
