Simple Ruby Client for Microsoft Bing Translator API

Bing Translate - Simple Ruby Client for Microsoft Translator API¶ ↑

msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff512423.aspx

Before you can use the HTTP interface you must obtain a valid Bing API AppID. You may obtain one by visiting www.bing.com/developers/appids.aspx

Usage¶ ↑

from_language = 'es'
to_language = 'en'
@bt = Bing::Translator.new(from_language, to_language, {:app_id => 'YOUR_APP_ID'})
puts @bt.translate('perro')

By default, the translator caches term translations in order to avoid unnecessary requests. This can be globally disabled passing:

:cache => false

in the options hash.

You can also skip the caching only for certain translation requests by passing

:cache => false

to the translate method.

@bt.translate('A longer sentence that won't likely be repeated', { :cache => false })
