Polyglot
========

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/ayanonagon/Polyglot.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/ayanonagon/Polyglot)

Swift wrapper around the Microsoft Translator API. By default, it translates to English from whatever language is detected.

## Installation

The easiest way to get started is to use CocoaPods. Just add the following line to your Podfile:

```ruby
pod 'Polyglot', '~> 0.5'
```

Otherwise, just include the contents of the `Polyglot` directory manually to your project.

## Basic Usage

Create a new ```Polyglot``` instance.

```swift
let translator = Polyglot(clientId: "YOUR_CLIENT_ID", clientSecret: "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET")
```

You can optionally specify to & from language codes.

```swift
translator.fromLanguage = Language.Dutch // It will automatically detect the language if you don't set this.
translator.toLanguage = Language.English // English. This is the default.
```

Start translating.

```swift
let dutch = "Ik weet het niet."
translator.translate(dutch) { translation in
    print("\"\(dutch)\" means \"\(translation)\"")
}
```

Check out the [sample project](https://github.com/ayanonagon/Polyglot/tree/master/PolyglotSample) for a quick demo.

## Setting up an account for Microsoft Translator

1. Subscribe to the Microsoft Translator service [here](https://datamarket.azure.com/dataset/bing/microsofttranslator). You’ll probably need to set up a new account first. Good luck. :trollface:
2. Create a new application [here](https://datamarket.azure.com/developer/applications). This is where you will be given a client ID and client secret (which you will need for using Polyglot).
