API

Access to supported languages

The raw sets of supported languages, as returned by Microsoft Translator API, are made accessible:

const { translation } = require("microsoft-translator-languages");

console.log(translation);
// {af: {…}, am: {…}, ar: {…}, as: {…}, az: {…}, …}

// OR
const microsoftTranslator = require("microsoft-translator-languages");

console.log(microsoftTranslator.dataTranslation);
// {af: {…}, am: {…}, ar: {…}, as: {…}, az: {…}, …}

Supported scopes are: translation, transliteration & dictionary.

Check if a language is supported

isLanguageSupported(code, scope) returns whether a language is supported or not:

code must be a BCP 47 language tag, as per ISO 3166-1
scope must be either translation, transliteration or dictionary (defaults to translation)

const { isLanguageSupported } = require("microsoft-translator-languages");

console.log(isLanguageSupported("en"));
// true

console.log(isLanguageSupported("en", "translation"));
// true

console.log(isLanguageSupported("en", "transliteration"));
// false

console.log(isLanguageSupported("en", "dictionary"));
// true
