# Argos Translate
[Demo](https://libretranslate.com) | [Website](https://www.argosopentech.com) | [Docs](https://argos-translate.readthedocs.io) |  [Forum](https://community.libretranslate.com/c/argos-translate/5) | [GitHub](https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate) | [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/argostranslate/)

**Open-source offline translation library written in Python**

Argos Translate uses [OpenNMT](https://opennmt.net/) for translations and can be used as either a Python library, command-line, or GUI application. Argos Translate supports installing language model packages which are zip archives with a ".argosmodel" extension containing the data needed for translation. [LibreTranslate](https://libretranslate.com) is an API and web-app built on top of Argos Translate.

Argos Translate also manages automatically pivoting through intermediate languages to translate between languages that don't have a direct translation between them installed. For example, if you have a es → en and en → fr translation installed you are able to translate from es → fr as if you had that translation installed. This allows for translating between a wide variety of languages at the cost of some loss of translation quality.

The [argospm-index](https://github.com/argosopentech/argospm-index) contains metadata and download links to access pre-trained Argos Translate models.

```
pip install argostranslate
```

Install [GUI](https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate-gui):
```
pip install argostranslategui
```

### Python source installation into virtualenv

Download a copy of this repo and install with pip.

```
git clone https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate.git
cd argos-translate
virtualenv env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -e .
```

## Examples
### [Python](https://argos-translate.readthedocs.io/en/latest/py-modindex.html)

```python
import argostranslate.package
import argostranslate.translate

from_code = "en"
to_code = "es"

# Download and install Argos Translate package
argostranslate.package.update_package_index()
available_packages = argostranslate.package.get_available_packages()
package_to_install = next(
    filter(
        lambda x: x.from_code == from_code and x.to_code == to_code, available_packages
    )
)
argostranslate.package.install_from_path(package_to_install.download())

# Translate
translatedText = argostranslate.translate.translate("Hello World", from_code, to_code)
print(translatedText)
# '¡Hola Mundo!'
```

### Command Line Interface
```
argospm update
argospm install translate-en_de
argos-translate --from en --to de "Hello World!"
# Hallo Welt!

```

Install all translation packages:
```
argospm install translate
```

### [LibreTranslate](https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate) Web App ([Demo](https://libretranslate.com/))
![Web App Screenshot](img/WebAppScreenshot.png)

### [LibreTranslate](https://github.com/uav4geo/LibreTranslate) API

```javascript
const res = await fetch("https://translate.argosopentech.com/translate", {
	method: "POST",
	body: JSON.stringify({
		q: "Hello!",
		source: "en",
		target: "es"
	}),
	headers: {
		"Content-Type": "application/json"}
	});

console.log(await res.json());

{
    "translatedText": "¡Hola!"
}
```

#### Graphical user interface
The GUI code is in a [separate repository](https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate-gui).

- [Browse](https://www.argosopentech.com/argospm/index/)
- [P2P download with BitTorrent](/p2p/README.md)
- [Training scripts](https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-train)
- [Google Drive download](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/11wxM3Ze7NCgOk_tdtRjwet10DmtvFu3i)


### GPU Acceleration

To enable GPU support, you need to set the `ARGOS_DEVICE_TYPE` env variable to `cuda` or `auto`.

```
$ ARGOS_DEVICE_TYPE=cuda argos-translate --from-lang en --to-lang es "Hello World"
Hola Mundo
```

The above env variable passes the device type to [CTranslate2](https://github.com/OpenNMT/CTranslate2).

### HTML Translation
The [translate-html](https://github.com/argosopentech/translate-html) library is built on top of Argos Translate and [Beautiful Soup](https://beautiful-soup-4.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) and parses and translates HTML. The LibreTranslate API also has support for translating HTML.


### Files Translation
The [argos-translate-files](https://github.com/LibreTranslate/argos-translate-files) library is built on top of Argos Translate and parses and translates files. The LibreTranslate API also has support for translating files.

## Uninstall

``` shell
pip uninstall argostranslate
```

You may choose to also delete temporary and cached files:

``` shell
rm -r ~/.local/cache/argos-translate
rm -r ~/.local/share/argos-translate
```
