Strapi-provider-translate-libretranslate NPM

LibreTranslate provider for Strapi Translate Plugin

Configure the provider through the providerOptions:

module.exports = {
  // ...
  translate: {
    enabled: true,
    config: {
      // Choose one of the available providers
      provider: 'libretranslate',
      // Pass credentials and other options to the provider
      providerOptions: {
        // your API key - required and wil cause errors if not provided
        apiKey: 'key',
        // api url - required
        apiUrl: 'https://your.libretranslate.instance',
        // maximum number of requests per minute - optional, default is `undefined` => no limit
        apiMaxRPM: 60,
        // maximum number of chars per request - optional, default is `undefined` => no limit
        apiMaxChars: 1234,
        // maximum number of texts per request
        apiMaxTexts: 55,
        // manually overwrite the Strapi Locale to LibreTranslate Locale mapping.
        // default is the string before the `-` character for every locale
        localeMap: {
          'en-US': 'de',
        },
      },
      // other options ...
    },
  },
  // ...
}

or use the default environment variables:

LT_API_KEY - default undefined
LT_API_URL - default undefined
LT_API_MAX_RPM - default undefined
LT_API_MAX_CHARS - default undefined
LT_API_MAX_TEXTS - default undefined

Note that environment variables take precedence over values providerOptions. To force no limit on requests per second or maximum characters, set them to -1

Limitations:

Only the languages supported by argos, the actual translation library behind LibreTranslate, can be translated.
LibreTranslate servers can impose additional restrictions, such as limits to request frequency or size. You can configure those via the pluginOptions, by default there are no limitations, because LibreTranslate has no limitations by default
