How to use google translator in PHP

Hi friends, Today we will learn How to use google language translator in PHP. Mostly we use this when we get data from another website or we can make a translator for our own website.

Note - follow the steps.

We have two ways to convert language in php.

1 -  php-google-translate-free Package 

2-   use class file of google translate.

 We will discuss both of them. which is easy to use you can use 😄

1 - php-google-translate-free Package 

 First, you have to install this package with the composer by your command line. Open your terminal and go to your folder were is your projects and paste here this command below.

Example -   

      phpProject is my folder run this command

•  composer require statickidz/php-google-translate-free

 ShortTutorials-MacBook-Air:phpProject $ composer require statickidz/php-google-translate-free

Or go to your project folder and edit your composer.json file and add this

"require": { 

      "statickidz/php-google-translate-free": "^1.1" 

    }

Now create a file translater.php and paste this code.

 <?php

   require_once ('vendor/autoload.php');  // include autoload.php

     use \Statickidz\GoogleTranslate;   use this package 

    $from = 'zh';   // language code who you want to convert  

    $to = 'en';    // language code in which language you want to change

    $text = '液晶显示器';  // language text 

    $trans = new GoogleTranslate(); //  make object 

    $result = $trans->translate($from, $to, $text);

    echo $result; // output -> LCD monitor

   ?>

Example -  If you want to convert zh (Chinese (Simplified)) to en (english)  Language.

NOTE - Supported Languages

2-   Use the class file of google translate.

        Go to your project folder and create a class file named google_translate.class.php

        Copy this code and paste it to your google_translate.class.php

<?php

class GoogleTranslate

{

    /**

     * @param string $source

     * @param string $target

     * @param string $text

     * @return string

     */

    public static function translate($from, $to, $text) {

        // Request translation

        $response = self::requestTranslation($from, $to, $text);

        // Clean translation

        $translation = self::getSentencesFromJSON($response);

        return $translation;

    }

    /**

     * @param string $source

     * @param string $target

     * @param string $text

     * @return array

     */

    protected static function requestTranslation($from, $to, $text) {

        // Google translate URL

        $url = "https://translate.google.com/translate_a/single?client=at&dt=t&dt=ld&dt=qca&dt=rm&dt=bd&dj=1&hl=es-ES&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&inputm=2&otf=2&iid=1dd3b944-fa62-4b55-b330-74909a99969e";

        $fields = array(

            'sl' => urlencode($from),

            'tl' => urlencode($to),

            'q' => urlencode($text)

        );

        // URL-ify the data for the POST

        $fields_string = "";

        foreach($fields as $key=>$value) {

            $fields_string .= $key.'='.$value.'&';

        }

        rtrim($fields_string, '&');

        // Open connection

        $ch = curl_init();

        // Set the url, number of POST vars, POST data

        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);

        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, count($fields));

        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS

, $fields_string);

        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_ENCODING, 'UTF-8');

        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);

        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'AndroidTranslate/5.3.0.RC02.130475354-53000263 5.1 phone TRANSLATE_OPM5_TEST_1');

        // Execute post

        $result = curl_exec($ch);

        // Close connection

        curl_close($ch);

        return $result;

    }

    /**

     * @param string $json

     * @return string

     */

    protected static function getSentencesFromJSON($json) {

        $sentencesArray = json_decode($json, true);

        $sentences = "";

        foreach ($sentencesArray["sentences"] as $s) {

            $sentences .= $s["trans"];

        }

        return $sentences;

    }

}

?>

 After pasting  this code create another file named translate.php in the same folder

     Copy this code 

    include_once ('google_translate.class.php'); //include class file

         $from = 'zh-CN';     // Chinese language code
    $to = 'en';  // English code 
    $text = "微型电脑主机";  // text 
    call class file function translate
         $lng = GoogleTranslate::translate($source,$target,$text);
    echo $lng   // Output -> Microcomputer host
