translate: Translate Endpoint

In SimonGoring/giphyR: Programmatic wrapper for the giphy API (https://github.com/Giphy/GiphyAPI)

Description

The translate API draws on search, but uses the Giphy "special sauce" to handle translating from one vocabulary to another. In this case, words and phrases to GIFs. Example implementations of translate can be found in the Giphy Slack, Hipchat, Wire, or Dasher integrations. Use a plus or url encode for phrases.

Usage

translate(s, rating = NULL, lang = NULL, sticker = FALSE,
  api_key = "dc6zaTOxFJmzC")

Arguments

s	- A term or phrase to translate into a GIF
rating	- A rating for age appropriate gifs. Options include "y", "g", "pg", "pg-13" and "r".
lang	- Regional content; see the allowed 2-letter ISO 639-1 country codes listed in the Details.
sticker	Should a GIF be returned or an animated sticker (with transparent background)? Default to FALSE.
api_key	- Giphy provides a default api_key value for public beta testing: "dc6zaTOxFJmzC". This is the default value.

Details

Tanslates a word or phrase to a GIF using the giphy API. Be aware that failure to use the rating tag may result in gifs that are not safe for work use. The default API key used here is for testing purposes only. More information on the use of the giphy API is available at https://github.com/Giphy/GiphyAPI Language support is documented in the giphy API documentation for Language Support: https://github.com/Giphy/GiphyAPI#language-support.
