Translation

Post by thecoder »

Hello,

I love the program! Thank you for putting so much effort in it.

But when you use some services, like china_post, the output of these services is in Chinese. It would be nice if this text could be translated (as an option).

Did you ever consider or think to send the output through Google Translate or Yandex translate ? There is an API for Google and Yandex (https://tech.yandex.com/translate/) so I think this should be possible. Then the text from the services could be translated automatically to English or Russian.

Thanks!

Hello!
What version of app did you mean?
In both version (Desktop and Mobile) translation on demand is already added.

Hello !

Thanks for your answer ! It's great that this is implemented already !

I'm using Trackchecker 2, v2.16 b147 sv20150514(447) on Android.

I have some plugins "china" and "china_last", there are a lot of Chinese texts :-(

Do I have to enable the translation somewhere? I checked the config options, but I don't see a translation option somewhere ....

Hi ! I just noticed that there seems to be a new version of trackchecker, "Trackchecker Mobile".

Not sure why this was released, but I backupped everything from Trackchecker 2, imported it into Trackchecker Mobile and created a key for the translation services.

Maybe it is useful to create a popup on TrackChecker 2 so that people know that there is a new version? As it will not get upgraded via Google Play ...

Anyway, everything works now, thanks a lot !
