Usage

Installation

composer require subzeta/glosbe

Translate

<?php 

use subzeta\Glosbe\Translator;

$response = (new Translator())->translate('music', 'eng', 'spa')->send();
var_dump($response->translations());
var_dump($response->meanings());

Options

Including examples in the response

Looking for examples? Just request it before sending the request.

<?php 

use subzeta\Glosbe\Translator;

$response = (new Translator())->translate('music', 'eng', 'spa')->includingExamples()->send();
var_dump($response->translations());
var_dump($response->meanings());
var_dump($response->examples());

Notes

• Languages should be provided in the ISO 639-3 code format. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-3_codes
• Library works internally with json for the output format.

To do

• Detect a bad formatted language ISO code (specially ISO 639-1) and translate to its 639-3 equivalent. As Glosbe points out, the API may understand a two letter code but it's better to provide it as the API expects it.
• Support for multi-translations (more than one text) and more than one translatable-language (more than one "to"). By now Glosbe doesn't support it.
• Add the addTranslation method, request and response.
• Limit the number of translations on response build (an option for that would be nice).
