You instantiate a translator class, specify source and target languages, and call translate() to get results. It also supports automatic language detection, batch translation, file-based translation (text, DOCX, PDF), and proxy configuration.\n\nThe package is designed for developers who need simple, free multilingual translation without managing multiple APIs or dealing with authentication complexity. It depends on beautifulsoup4 and requests to scrape or query these services. Maintenance is dormant (last release June 2023, last commit July 2024), so while it is marked Production/Stable, you should expect no active support or fixes if underlying services change.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need free, simple translation and can tolerate dormant maintenance. The low install friction, permissive license, and broad translator coverage make it practical for one-off scripts and small projects. However, do not rely on it for production systems where translation service availability is critical\u2014the dormant status means breakage from service changes will not be fixed promptly. One known vulnerability (PYSEC-2022-252) should be reviewed before use in sensitive contexts."},"id":"deep-translator","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/deep-translator","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/deep-translator.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/deep-translator/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-06-28","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"deep-translator","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A flexible free and unlimited python tool to translate between different languages in a simple way using multiple translators"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2419447,"position":3072,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":1},"version":"1.11.4"}
