text_translate: IBM Language Translation API.

In ColumbusCollaboratory/cognizer: Access to Cognitive APIs

Description

Translates text from Arabic, French, Portuguese or Spanish to English. Requires basic authentication using username and password.

Usage

text_translate(text, userpwd, keep_data = "true", callback = NULL,
  model_id = "es-en-conversational", accept = "application/json")

Arguments

text	Character vector.
userpwd	Character scalar that contains 'username:password' string.
keep_data	Character scalar specifying whether to share your data with Watson services for the purpose of training their models.
callback	Function that can be applied to responses to examine http status, headers, and content, to debug or to write a custom parser for content. The default callback parses content into a data.frame while dropping other response values to make the output easily passable to tidyverse packages like dplyr or ggplot2. For further details or debugging one can pass a fail or a more compicated function.
model_id	Character scalar formated as 'source-target-domain'. Source language (Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, English, French, Italian, or Spanish), target language (Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, English, French, Italian, or Spanish) and domain of text (conversational, news, patent). Check IBM documentation for other language mappings.
accept	Character scalar that specifies response format. Alternative is text/plain.

Value

Data.frame containing parsed content in a tidy fashion.
