Detect the language of text within a request

Usage

gl_translate_detect(string)

Arguments

string

A character vector of text to detect language for

Value

A tibble of the detected languages with columns confidence, isReliable, language, and text of length equal to the vector of text you passed in.

Details

Consider using library(cld2) and cld2::detect_language instead offline, since that is free and local without needing a paid API call.

gl_translate also returns a detection of the language, so you could also wish to do it in one step via that function.

Examples


if (FALSE) {

gl_translate_detect("katten sidder på måtten")
# Detecting language: 39 characters - katten sidder på måtten...
# confidence isReliable language                    text
# 1   0.536223      FALSE       da katten sidder på måtten


}
