Installation

$ npm install mstranslator

or just download it and put it in your project's node_module directory.

You will also need to register to get an client_id and client_secret to create access tokens. Details at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh454950.aspx

Example Usage - Auto-generated token

    var MsTranslator = require('mstranslator');
    // Second parameter to constructor (true) indicates that
    // the token should be auto-generated.
    var client = new MsTranslator({
      client_id: "your client_id"
      , client_secret: "your client secret"
    }, true);

    var params = {
      text: 'How\'s it going?'
      , from: 'en'
      , to: 'es'
    };

    // Don't worry about access token, it will be auto-generated if needed.
    client.translate(params, function(err, data) {
          console.log(data);
    });

Example Usage - Generate token manually

    var MsTranslator = require('mstranslator');
    var client = new MsTranslator({
      client_id: "your client_id"
      , client_secret: "your client secret"
    });

    var params = {
      text: 'How\'s it going?'
      , from: 'en'
      , to: 'es'
    };


    // Using initialize_token manually.
    client.initialize_token(function(keys){
      console.log(keys.access_token);
      client.translate(params, function(err, data) {
          console.log(data);
      });
    });
