Think about pulling this in for the translate API?

https://github.com/ssut/py-googletrans (or something similar)?

Neat!

As far as calling a discovery-based API, we have all the mechanics in the JSONConnection base class.

@jgeewax Did you want us to try to pull this in? Or emulate it?

AFAICT there are only three methods (two of which will be used by a user):

• language.detections.list: Detect the language of text.
• language.languages.list: Just list languages supported by the API
• language.translations.list: Returns text translations from one language to another.

This should be do-able in a very short amount of work. Maybe @daspecster could get his feet wet here?

Looks like it's kind of in disrepair these days.

Could be a good starting point though. I'm game either way!

I don't think we should pull in that library just start fresh with a new client / connection and maybe a class or two for the relevant nouns.
