# Jupyter Translate: a Python script for translating Jupyter notebook files

[version 2024]

This script was created as a general-purpose translator for Jupyter notebooks, translating across different languages (the default source language is English). Install it with:
```
pip install jupyter_translate
```

After installed, you can use it but running the following command in the terminal:

```
jupyter_translate tests/data/test_Notebook_en.ipynb --target pt
```
A new file named `test_Notebook_en_pt.ipynb` will be created (or the code of the language you decided to use).

### Translate Multiple Notebooks in a Directory

You can translate all notebooks in a directory by using the `--directory` flag or by simply providing a directory path:

```
jupyter_translate tests/data --target es --directory
```

By default, this will recursively traverse all subdirectories. If you want to translate only the notebooks in the specified directory (without subdirectories), add the `--no-recursive` flag:

```
jupyter_translate tests/data --target es --directory --no-recursive
```

You can also translate notebooks from/to any language:
```
jupyter_translate tests/data/test_Notebook_pt.ipynb --source pt --target en
```

The program translates markdown content, comments in code cells, and messages formatted in  `print(f" ... ")`.

## Translator Options:

By default, jupyter-translate uses [googletrans](https://py-googletrans.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) on its backend. However, you can specify a different translator using the --translator option. Here's how to use it:

```
jupyter_translate test_Notebook_en.ipynb --target pt --translator='mymemory'
```
Currently supported translators are:
* google (default)
* mymemory
 
**Caution:** If you are using `mymemory` as backend translator, the language codes are different. The script will show you the codes. Make sure to specify the correct `--source` and `--target` language codes supported by the selected translator. The --language option can be set to any of the following (codes from default `googletrans`:

### Other options:

`--delay`: 
The delay in seconds between retries in case of connection issues. The default is 10 seconds. Adjusting this can help if you're facing connectivity issues, especially behind firewalls.
```
jupyter_translate my_notebook.ipynb --target es --delay=15
```

`--rename`: 
If specified, this option will rename the original notebook file after the translation is complete. This can be useful if you want to keep the translated version as the primary file.
```
jupyter_translate my_notebook.ipynb --target es --rename
```

`--print`: 
Use this option if you want to print the translations directly to the console as they happen.
```
jupyter_translate my_notebook.ipynb --target es --print
```

`--directory`: 
Process all .ipynb files in the specified directory. This can be used with a directory path to translate all notebooks in that location.
```
jupyter_translate notebooks_dir/ --target es --directory
```

`--no-recursive`: 
When used with `--directory`, this flag prevents subdirectories from being processed. Only notebooks in the specified directory will be translated.
```
jupyter_translate notebooks_dir/ --target es --directory --no-recursive
```

## Implementation notes:

To set up a working Conda environment to use this tool, you must install a newer version of `deep-translator` via pip, as well as a few other libraries. You can do this with the included environment file. In your terminal, enter:
```
conda env create --file environment.yml
conda activate jtranslate
```

You can also reset the environment by running:
```
conda deactivate
conda remove --name jtranslate --all
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate jtranslate
```

**Note:** Copy and execute each line one by one—do not run them as a block. **Caution:** The googletrans API, as used by deep-translator, may face connectivity issues if you're behind a firewall. To improve accessibility in such environments, consider using the --delay option to introduce a pause between retries.

If you have any question or suggestion, use the *pull request* or discussion option in github.
