Installation

$ npm install mstranslator

An API key from portal.azure.com is needed to create a token as of April 30, 2017. See Microsoft Translator API Documentation. For details on previous authentication API and migration info

Example Usage - Auto-generated token

var MsTranslator = require('mstranslator');
// Second parameter to constructor (true) indicates that
// the token should be auto-generated.

var client = new MsTranslator({
  api_key: "your portal.azure.com api key"
}, true);

var params = {
  text: 'How\'s it going?',
  from: 'en',
  to: 'es'
};

// Don't worry about access token, it will be auto-generated if needed.
client.translate(params, function(err, data) {
  console.log(data);
});

Example Usage - Generate token manually

var MsTranslator = require('mstranslator');

var client = new MsTranslator({
  api_key: "your portal.azure.com api key"
}, true);

var params = {
  text: 'How\'s it going?',
  from: 'en',
  to: 'es'
};

// Using initialize_token manually.
client.initialize_token(function(err, keys) {
  console.log(keys);
  client.translate(params, function(err, data) {
    console.log(data);
  });
});
