TranslateText

Source: src/AWS/Translate/TranslateText.ts

Runtime binding for translate:TranslateText — translate text between a source and a target language.

Translate is a pure pay-per-call service with no resource to manage: the binding takes no arguments and grants the function translate:TranslateText (the action has no resource-level IAM). Language codes follow RFC 5646 (en, es, de, …); pass auto as the source to let Translate detect the language (this additionally calls Comprehend under the hood).

Translating Text

// init
const translateText = yield* AWS.Translate.TranslateText();

// runtime
const result = yield* translateText({
  Text: "Hello, world!",
  SourceLanguageCode: "en",
  TargetLanguageCode: "es",
});
// result.TranslatedText === "¡Hola, mundo!"
