Installation

Installation is very simple, just run the following command in the terminal:

pip install tt-terminal-translator

Basic Usage

The CLI consists of two commands, tt and tt-configure.

tt

tt is the main CLI command.

Usage

Basically we call the command passing the text to be translated

By default the text will be translated to en-us

tt ola mundo

We can also inform the target language for the translation

tt ola mundo --target es  # spanish

There is also a parameter to translate directly into Portuguese

tt hello world -p

In addition there is a parameter to copy the output directly to the clipboard

tt -c hola mundo

For more information use the parameter --help

tt --help

tt-configure

tt-configure is only for the initial configuration of the Google Cloud API credentials, as seen in the settings section.

Usage

Basically we call the command passing two arguments, first the project-id followed by the path of the credentials Json file.

tt-configure <project-id> <google-api-credentials>

For quick help use the --help argument.

tt-configure --help
