TranslateChat

Plugin category: Chat Related

Minecraft version: 1.11.2

Suggested name: TranslateChat

What I want:
A plugin that automatically detects a user's language and translates their messages to English for all users except themselves. I know plugins like this already exist but most of them are abandoned/don't work

Ideas for commands: No commands needed for this plugin.

Ideas for permissions: translate.exempt - If they have this permission messages will not be translated

When I'd like it by: Within the week or two

 

@Dr_Lobster_face I am almost done. Do you really need the player themselves to not see their message translated? It would be a lot less work to just modify the message, which will cause everyone (including the sender) to see the translation. Also, there will be minor lagg in the sending of messages because of the way I am translating.

 

@timtower I am basically requesting a google translate page, so I would request https://translate.google.com/#auto/en/bonjour and then I would read the source file for the answer

 

@timtower hmm.. yes it does. I think I might have to pass this one until I can find a free translator that is acceptable (which probably doesn't exist)

 

what is the rate limit on the api? just wondering.

 

@MemeplexOwner My way, it was about 200 requests consecutively

 

Sorry I've not been active for a while.
Yes, it would be ideal if the player could see their message in the original langauge
