Detects language of the given text. Returns detected language codes and scores.
Before using Detect Language API client you have to setup your personal API key. You can get it by signing up at https://detectlanguage.com
go get -u github.com/detectlanguage/detectlanguage-go
client := detectlanguage.New("YOUR API KEY")detections, err := client.Detect("Buenos dias señor")
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, "error detecting language:", err)
os.Exit(1)
return
}
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Language:", detections[0].Language)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Reliable:", detections[0].Reliable)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Confidence:", detections[0].Confidence)If you need just a language code you can use DetectCode. It returns first detected language code.
language, err := client.DetectCode("Buenos dias señor")
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, "error detecting language:", err)
os.Exit(1)
return
}
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Language:", language)It is possible to detect language of several texts with one request.
This method is significantly faster than doing one request per text.
To use batch detection just pass multiple texts to DetectBatch method.
texts := []string{"labas rytas", "good morning"}
results, err := client.DetectBatch(texts)
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, "error detecting language:", err)
os.Exit(1)
return
}
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "First text language:", detections[0][0].Language)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Second text language:", detections[1][0].Language)result, err := client.UserStatus()
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, "error getting user status:", err)
os.Exit(1)
return
}
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Status:", result.Status)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Requests sent today:", result.Requests)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Bytes sent today:", result.Bytes)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Plan:", result.Plan)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Plan expires:", result.PlanExpires)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Daily requests limit:", result.DailyRequestsLimit)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Daily bytes limit:", result.DailyBytesLimit)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Date:", result.Date)languages, err := client.Languages()
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, "error getting languages list:", err)
os.Exit(1)
return
}
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "Supported languages:", len(languages))
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "First language code:", languages[0].Code)
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stdout, "First language name:", languages[0].Name)Detect Language API Go Client is free software, and may be redistributed under the terms specified in the MIT-LICENSE file.
