Batch Translation Function

This function translates a file into each target language using the polyglotr package's translate_file function, and saves the translated files.

Usage

batch_translate(input_file, source_language, target_languages)

Arguments

input_file

A character string indicating the path to the input file.

source_language

A character string indicating the source language.

target_languages

A character vector indicating the target languages.

Value

A character vector with the paths of the translated files, named by target language, invisibly.

Details

One file is written per target language, next to the input file, named <name>_<target_language>_translated.<ext>. The input file is not modified. The input file and all language codes are checked before anything is written, so an invalid code does not leave a partial set of files behind.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
batch_translate("README.md", "nl", c("fr", "es", "de"))
} # }
