Install

composer require revenuewire/translation

Description

Translation Services using DyanmoDB or Redis as cache options. We also embedded two translation service providers, One Hour Translation and Google Cloud Translation.

OneHourTranslation provides human translators to translate your project where Google Cloud Translation charges a flat fee for Neural Machine Translation (NMT). Both service providers provide simple machine translation but are not supported for the purpose of this project.

Requirements

Generally, there are two modes (live or db) of configurations you can choose from.

Live Mode

Live mode uses Google Cloud Translation APIs that translate the texts directly to targeted languages. You need a Google Cloud account and key in order to use it. You also need Redis cache for better performance. No memcached support yet.

Requirement Summary
  • Google Cloud Account
  • Redis
DB Mode

Database mode uses AWS DynamoDB as a storage choice. Redis is suggested but not required.

Requirement Summary
  • AWS DynamoDB
  • Redis (optional)

Configurations

Live Mode
$defaultLanguage = "en";
$supportLanguages = ["en", "fr", "zh"];

    "host" => "REDIS_HOST",
    "timeout" => "0.5",
    "port" => "6379",
    "prefix" => "t_2sx_", //optional, to prevent cache key collision
];

];
$translationService = new \RW\Translation(null, $supportLanguages, $cache, $defaultLanguage, $gct);

//translate to Simple Chinese
echo $translationService->translate("Hello World", "zh");

Usage
$defaultLanguage = "en";
$supportLanguages = ["en", "fr", "zh"];

$dynamoConfig = [
   "region" => "us-west-2",
   "table" => "YOUR TABLE NAME",
   "version" => "2012-08-10"
];

$redisConfig = [
    "host" => "YOUR REDIS HOST",
    "timeout" => "0.5",
    "port" => "6379",
    "prefix" => "t_2sx_", //optional, to prevent cache key collision
];

$translationService = new \RW\Translation($dynamoConfig, $supportLanguages, $cache, $defaultLanguage);

//translate to Simple Chinese
echo $translationService->translate("Hello World", "zh");
print_r($translationService->batchTranslate([
   "hello" => "Hello World",
   "how-s-going" => "How's going?"
],"zh"));

Working with Translation Services

Once you go through all your pages, your translation table should have collected all texts you need to translate.

diff

Calculate the difference between existing texts and targeted translation texts. For example, if your source table have a English word "Hello World", and the following command will generate two queue items that aim to translate "Hello World" to Chinese and French.

php vendor/revenuewire/translation/bin/cli.php \
        --provider=[OTH or GCT] \
        --region=[AWS_REGION] \
        --translation=[TRANSLATION_TABLE] \
        --translation_queue=[TRANSLATION_QUEUE_TABLE] \
        --translation_project=[TRANSLATION_PROJECT_TABLE] \
   	    diff zh fr
add

The add command will add all pending items into projects. This is useful when working with OneHourTranslation which had limits on how many texts you can schedule to translate per batch.

php vendor/revenuewire/translation/bin/cli.php \
        --region=[AWS_REGION] \
        --translation=[TRANSLATION_TABLE] \
        --translation_queue=[TRANSLATION_QUEUE_TABLE] \
        --translation_project=[TRANSLATION_PROJECT_TABLE] \
        --oth_pubkey=[ONE_HOUR_TRANSLATION_PUB_KEY] \
        --oth_secret=[ONE_HOUR_TRANSLATION_SECRET] \
        --oth_sandbox=[ONE_HOUR_TRANSLATION_SANDBOX] \
        --gct_project=[GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT] \
        --gct_key=[GOOGLE_CLOUD_KEY] \
        add 
commit

Commit the projects to service provider. The commit only available for One Hour Translation.

php vendor/revenuewire/translation/bin/cli.php \
        --region=[AWS_REGION] \
        --translation=[TRANSLATION_TABLE] \
        --translation_queue=[TRANSLATION_QUEUE_TABLE] \
        --translation_project=[TRANSLATION_PROJECT_TABLE] \
        --oth_pubkey=[ONE_HOUR_TRANSLATION_PUB_KEY] \
        --oth_secret=[ONE_HOUR_TRANSLATION_SECRET] \
        --oth_sandbox=[ONE_HOUR_TRANSLATION_SANDBOX] \
        commit 
push

Push the translated texts back to translation table.

php vendor/revenuewire/translation/bin/cli.php \
        --region=[AWS_REGION] \
        --translation=[TRANSLATION_TABLE] \
        --translation_queue=[TRANSLATION_QUEUE_TABLE] \
        --translation_project=[TRANSLATION_PROJECT_TABLE] \
   	    push
