I have successfully done this using this Python code:
import os
from google.cloud import translate_v2 as translate
def upload_and_translate(input_dir, output_dir, target_language):
"""Uploads all images in a directory, translates them using Google Translate, and downloads the translated images to a specified output directory.
Args:
input_dir: The directory containing the images to be translated.
output_dir: The directory to which the translated images will be downloaded.
target_language: The target language for the translation.
"""
# Create a Google Translate client.
client = translate.Client()
# Get a list of all the files in the input directory.
files = os.listdir(input_dir)
# Iterate over the files and upload them to Google Translate.
for file in files:
with open(os.path.join(input_dir, file), "rb") as f:
# Upload the image to Google Translate.
response = client.translate_image(
f,
target_language=target_language,
)
# Download the translated image.
with open(os.path.join(output_dir, file), "wb") as f:
f.write(response.translated_image)
# Example usage:
if __name__ == "__main__":
input_dir = "path/to/input/directory"
output_dir = "path/to/output/directory"
target_language = "es"
upload_and_translate(input_dir, output_dir, target_language)
To use the provided code, follow these steps:
Python:
- Install the google-cloud-translate library using
pip install google-cloud-translate
- Save the code as a Python file, for example, upload_and_translate.py.
- Replace the values of
input_dir, output_dir, and target_language with your desired values.
- Run the script using
python upload_and_translate.py
