   cd translate-google-api-v1
   

2. Install dependencies using Bun:

Your API should now be running on http://localhost:3000/translate.

How to Use the API

You can use tools like Postman, curl, or any HTTP client to make requests to the API.

Example Request

To translate text, send a POST request to the /translate endpoint with the following JSON body:

Request URL:

POST http://localhost:3000/translate

Example Request Body:

{
  "text": "hello world",
  "from": "en",  // Optional: Source language (use "auto" for automatic detection)
  "to": "es"     // Target language
}

Example Response

You should receive a response similar to this:

"hola mundo"

API Endpoint

If the from field is omitted, the API will automatically detect the source language.
