Cross-platform TUI for translating text using multiple providers simultaneously and support automatic detection of the source and destination language

Package Exports

  • multranslate
  • multranslate/multranslate.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (multranslate) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

multranslate

English | Русский

Terminal user interface based on blessed library for translating text using multiple translation providers simultaneously. All sources do not require an access token or any settings. Supports automatic detection of the source and destination language between English and Russian.

Example

Translation providers

  • Google via free and unlimited API using serverless hosted on Vercel.
  • DeepLX - free DeepL API using serverless hosted on Vercel.
  • MyMemory - free and open api (usage is limited to 5000 chars/day).
  • Reverso - free api (does not contain official documentation, request was received from official site through DevTools).

Installation

You can download the executable from the release files or install via the npm package manager:

npm install -g multranslate
multranslate

Build:

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/Lifailon/multranslate
cd multranslate

Running the application:

npm start

The pkg package from Vercel is used to build the executable.

npm install -g pkg
  • Windows:
pkg . --targets node18-win-x64 --output multranslate.exe
  • Linux:
pkg . --targets node18-linux-x64 --output multranslate

The executable file already includes all dependencies for its operation.

Hotkeys

Using the up and down buttons you can scroll through all output panels at once.

The escape button is used to clear the text input field, as well as to exit the program if the input field is already empty.

The blessed library has a number of limitations, so I was unable to implement cursor movement using the left and right arrows.

To capture all text in one of the output panels for copying, use the key combination Shift+Alt when selecting text.

If you are using Windows Terminal, add a parameter in the settings.json configuration file that will remove trailing spaces from text in a rectangular (block) selection when copying to the clipboard:

"trimBlockSelection": true

To paste text from the clipboard, use the keyboard shortcut Shift+Ctrl+V or Ctrl+V depending on the terminal you are using.
