cp2trans
Translate text from clipboard.
Installation
This script is written for Windows. Believe it's a hard way to setup but an easy one to use :).
- Python 37 on Windows 10.
- Upgrade pip by
pip install -U pip. - Install
aws-clifrom https://aws.amazon.com/cli/ and initiate aws byaws configure. - Install MeCab from https://github.com/ikegami-yukino/mecab/releases/tag/v0.996. Add the
/bindirectory $PATH. - Make additional dictionary by mecab-ipadic-neologd.
Since it's hard to build on Windows 10, I suggest build it on Ubuntu WSL and copy all the files under
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mecab/dic/mecab-ipadic-neologdintoC:\neologd\if you want the newest dictionary. Here's a pre-built dictionary on 2019-05-11. -
NOTICE: We use
pydub's ffmpeg binding to play TTS mp3 audio. If you want to enable TTS, download ffmpeg from https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/ or just ignore the warning. We won't cache audio so you should mind of its costs. - Install requirements by
pip install -r requirements.txt. If your system default encoding is not UTF-8, you might fail on installing theromkanpackage. Usually neitherchcpnorlocale.setdefaultencoding()won't solve this problem. I suggest manually download romkan source code and replace line 12README = open(os.path.join(here, 'README.rst')).read()toREADME = open(os.path.join(here, 'README.rst'), encoding="utf-8").read(). Then runpython .\setup.py install. - Copy a file of
config.ini.exampleand rename it toconfig.ini. Fill in theappidand thesecretkey, make sureNatural Language Translationof this app is enabled. - Run the script by
python .\cp2trans\cp2trans.pyor installcp2transbypython setup.py install(in this way you can pass step 8).
- The easier way if your computer has been configured:
pip install cp2trans
Upgrade
Be sure to backup your config.ini before upgrading. It will be overwritten.
