Installation

1. Install Google Chrome; This module depends on a chrome driver, so selenium can leverage off of it.

2. pip install hubspot-Article-Translator

How to use module

Configuring Translation APIs

AWS API

import boto3

from hubspot_article_translator import translation_manager, AWSTranslateClient





if __name__ == "__main__":

    # Setup Translation Client/s

    boto3.setup_default_session()

    translation_manager.add_clients(

        AWSTranslateClient(

            aws_session=boto3.DEFAULT_SESSION

        )

    )

Azure API

from hubspot_article_translator import translation_manager, AzureTranslateClient





if __name__ == "__main__":

    # Setup Translation Client/s

    translation_manager.add_clients(

        AzureTranslateClient(

            key="<AZURE_TRANSLATE_KEY>",

            location="<AZURE_TRANSLATE_LOCATION>",

            endpoint="<AZURE_TRANSLATE_ENDPOINT>",

            api_version="<AZURE_TRANSLATE_API_VERSION>"

        )

    )

Executing the translation workflow

import boto3

from selenium import webdriver

from hubspot_article_translator import State, workflow, translation_manager, AWSTranslateClient, AzureTranslateClient





if __name__ == "__main__":

    # Create the selenium Chrome driver

    driver = webdriver.Chrome()



    # Execute the workflow, passing parameters into State object

    workflow.execute(

        driver=driver,

        state=State(

            # Your Hubspot Account Email

            email="<HUBSPOT EMAIL>",



            # Your Hubspot Account Password

            password="<HUBSPOT PASSWORD>",



            # 2FA code from Authenticator App

            code="<HUBSPOT 2FA CODE>",



            # List of article IDs to translate

            article_ids=["<ID OF ARTICLE TO TRANSLATE>", ...],



            # The ID of the knowledge base that the above articles are in

            knowledge_base_id="<ID OF THE KNOWLEDGE BASE>",



            # the source language of articles

            from_language="en",



            # the languages each article will be translated to

            # make sure key aligns with content language codes

            # https://github.com/noodle-factory/Hubspot-Article-Translator/blob/master/hubspot_article_translator/translation/content_languages/content_languages.json

            # make sure value is exactly the name of the language in Hubspot

            to_languages={

                "es": "Spanish",

                "pt-pt": "Portuguese - Portugal",

                "id": "Indonesian"

            },



            # Automatically publish the article once translation is done

            # Note ensure that you have setup all the knowledge base category translations for each language...

            # Otherwise you won't be able to publish the articles

            auto_publish=True|False 

        )

    )



    # Close the selenium Driver

    driver.quit()

Tips & tricks

Getting all the article IDs

It would be time consuming to get all the article IDs from each page manually. Instead, navigate to the knowledge base articles page, then open the console and paste this command

[...document.querySelectorAll('[data-test-object-id]')].map(e => e.getAttribute('data-test-object-id')).join("|")

Known Limitations

1. This hasn't been tested with other browsers, it will likely only work with Chrome currently

2. The account must be configured with 2FA through the authenticator app, and not a mobile phone number
